One land agent, 1924; two liquor
dealers, $3.50; two street merchants,
$1,000; one insurance agent, So. OS; one

questions has been made out and IL in
structive. They are fifteen In number.
The first seven relate to the recruits,
height. weight, age, parentase. occupa-
ton. residence, previous membership in
military organizations, etc. Question 8
asks whether the recruits occupation Is
permanent and whether he intends re-
naming In the city during the three years
Of his term Of enlistment. The next two
questions are intended to ASCERTAIN
whether the applicants business il such
that he can attend company and battalion
drills and tho three parades required an
nually by law. The most interest, how
ever, attaches to questions II, II and Is.
They are ~ follows:
IL Do you have any conscientious or political
scruples or any other reasons whatever which
eaee you were ordered out BY the governor 20
maintain the peace o. suppress riot, insurrec-
ton or invasion, or BY the president OF the
United States In care Of warf
L. Are you member Of any secret or other
organization which would intssfere with your
duties - above indicatsdf
Is Are you In the habit Of drinking intoxicat-
ing uQuors7
The above list il self-explanatory. CUES
lions II and II suggest somewhat forcibly
the open and covert attacks that have
been made upon the military force Of this
and other states.
The attack made openly upon our guard
BY certain Olympia people for its alleged
behavior during Inauguration is well re-
membered. Other attacks have been COW
ertly made by trades unions upon the mill
itary forces either in the attempt to de-
prive the latter of their appropriations or
by endeavoring to spread disaffection
among tho men themselves, and especially
among that portion Of them belonging to
trades unions. The bearing of questions
IL and IL can be easily perceived. As long
a. the Law needs force to uphold itself
against ruffianism or outlawry it Is well to
see to it that only men that believe in law
and order should be admitted to the state
soldiery. Question Is. intended to confine
Company Els recruits TO temperate or prob
ably to abstinent men. cannot be too
highly commended. 1t will be remem-
bered that the most famous military forces
the world has ever seen, tho armies Of
Gustavus Adolphus and Of Oliver Crom-
we'll, were recruited among conscientious
and upright men. Both these great
soldiers recognized that q man with q
heart and q conscience both enlisted In his
work made the best kind of . soldier. 1t
is true that such emergencies a. confronted
these commanders are not present in this
age; yet with the kind Of thing that has
recently been seen in this country At
Homestead. Buffalo. Rock Springs, Wyo. |;
the Cpur d'Alenes and at Coal Greek,
Tenn, 1t is safe to assume that We can not
have too much conscience and integrity in
our citizen soldiery.
