CAMP REGULATIONS.

Acknowledgement Aliens Instructions
to National Guardsmen.
Adjutant-General G.. G. Allen issued his
first official circular yesterday, and it
relates to subject of special interest to
National Guardsmen as well as to the
general public. 1t reads:
"As the time approaches for the annual
encampment, the following suggestions
are offered for your consideration:
"Flrst-The camps are held for the i'm
proVement of the troops, and the orders
and exercises should be to this end.
While it is desirable that the men should
have all the enjoyments and recreation
possible, so that III the future encamp-
ments shall be looked forward to with
pleasure and as a recreation, the military
part Of the meetings ought not to be ne
elected. 1t is the opinion of this depart
ment that the practice of indiscriminate
entertainment and the accompanying use
OF splrituous liquors at the various head
quarters in camps of instruction are det-
rimental to the good of the service, and
causes a subservance of military obsery-
ance and duty to hospitality and good
fellowship.
''Second-The taxpayers of California
are practical people and will look for re-
suits. The liberal appropriations made
for camp purposes make ii the more nee
camp, nor no line of conduct followed
that could call for adverse criticism. The
experience of older States than our own.
and whose National Guard is doubtless
more efficient than is ours, is that the OBJ
jectionable element referred to is not nee
essary to successful camps, but that, on
the contrary, the absence, particularly if
known beforehand, not only relieves the
camps of a considerable circle of visitors
of doubtful value and the officers of a
large expenditure of money that can i'll
be afforded, but it keeps the officers
and men in better condition for their le-
gitimate duties. While it is admitted
that this idea is an innovation in Calitor-
mia, and perhaps one that cannot be
wholly adopted for the present, it is
hoped that all officers will consider the
matter seriously with view of adopting
1t SO far as may be possible during the
coming brigade encampments.
"Ihlrd-The practice of ladies remain
ing IN camp nights is very Objectionable
and should not be permitted. There is a
delicacy in the female mind that should be
respected; besides, it detracts from the
duties that should be given solely to inn
proyement in the art of war.
