DECLINED MILITARY HONORS Edgar Howard Wiltes a Characteristic Let ter to Governor Holcouib. OPPCSED TO THE SPIRIT OF MILITARISM llnldi the MllltU to Do but nn Unclne In the HnniU of the Corporations to Opptcrs ( ho I'our UoTonior llulcomb'i lli'ply. LINCOLN , June 7. ( Special. ) Thcro Is a vacancy on the odlclnl staff of Governor Hot * comb. Hon. Kdgnr Howard , democratic rep resentative from Sarpy county , anil editor of thoTflpilllnn Times , declines to mix up with what He appears to believe Is the dominant spirit of militarism prevalent In the coun try , Mr. Howard was recently appointed an alilo on the governor's staff , with the rank of colonel. H Is the Generally expressed opinion that Howard pursues a consistent course In this matter , ns when the bill for an appro priation to the state mllltla was before tlio last legislature ho vigorously opposed It. lc ) > tore ho received his commission ho addressed the following communication to the governor ; 1'APILUON. Nob. , Juno C.-Sllas A. Hoi- comb , ( Jovernor , Lincoln , Neb. : Dear Sir I Imvo iiulleeil hi iho public prints during * the j > ast week a list of members of your ex cellency's stuff , Including my own name , with n military pplthct prefixed. Perhaps It would be bolter form lor me to await the arrival of my commission before addressing1 you , but I do not fee I called upon to let n. matter of form doter me from placing my self right before my ft lends. In view of the publication of your list of stuff appoint ments the public has a right to believe that the appointees have accepted the call to arms for dress parade , whon. as to one of. thorn at least , such Is not the case. Very sincerely do I thank you for your unso licited favor , but In equal sincerity must I decline to become a member of your mili tary staff. For fifteen years I have talked , written and voted against everything lookIng - Ing to the spread of the spirit of militar ism , nnd for me now to accept , even from your own gracious hand. " , a mlillary appoint ment , would be giving the lie to nil my past pietcnses , I am opposed to the state mllltla , root anil branch. 1 regard It as a constant menace , rather than nn aid to the public peace. The state soldiery Ihrom haul the tin on has been organized always at the behest and often at the dictation of corporate capital , which asks that the state shall plunge Its bayonets rtito the breasts of organized labor In order to enforce compliance with organized cap ital's demands. * llnru , Indeed , are the Instances whcro state soldiers have been called Into the Held save by the request of the representa tives of some corporation , whose galling burdens have rendered restless nnd revenge ful their employes. Who ever heard of the mllltla being called out to right the wrongs of the poor ? Whou has the stnto ursheathod her sword or hurled a shell Into the ranks of capital at the request of labor ? In vain you will search the records for a reply. However , I am gla.d to be able to bellevo that while you occupy the chnlr of the state the military arm will never be raised against the weak by the request of the strong. I would esteem It nn honor to bo called to any worthy work or walk In llfo In your company , but I must firmly decllno the honor you hnvo pought to confer In naming me n member of your military staff. With great respect , I am , my dear gov ernor , your obedient servant , KIX3AR HOWAHD. ARM THR COMMON PICOPM3. Today Governor Ilolcomb mailed the fol lowing reply : STATE OF NEBRASKA , EXECUTIVE OFFICE , LINCOLN , June 7 , U93. Hon. Edgar Howard , Pnpllllon , Neb. : My Dear Howard I nm lu receipt of yours of the Cth Inst. , declining to serve ns a member of the governor's mil itary stalT , nnd I note with pleasure your assurances of confidence of the proper UFO of the ptato mllltla under the present ad ministration. Highly esteeming your mer itorious services In the cause of the people with volco nnd pen , I deemed It appropri ate that while white winged peace hov ered over us there should be added to your accoutrements the sword and the livery of the army. I admire the courageous man who defends the rights of the weak nnd the oppressed , and deplore the spirit which sometimes prevents him from equipping himself for the fray. Properly managed , our mllltla Is a benefit to the state , nnd I am Inclined to encourage a military spirit among the masses of the people. If the people are In danger from military forces controlled by corporate capital , 03 you aver , shall we discourage the military spirit among the great common people and make them a servile throng of timid men , or shall wo develop the Innate military ardor , encourage the spirit of Independence , and offer to the encroachments of organ ized capital n steady front of soldierly people ple , ready to defend their rights , confident in their strength , and with the kindly for bearance which attends the knowledge of superior strength. Yet , I respect your sentiments nnd accept your declination In the spirit which prompted It. With best wishes , I am , yours very truly , SILAS A. HOLCOMH.
