repeal All its parades and organizations could
be revived whenever there should he occasion f,r
IT, To reucal the militia law, on the other
hand. would be doing away with system nee
csSlry IN certain emergencies. To continue 1t
in full effect was 90 require parade entirely
useless. H. time Of peace military drill was
