There is deal OF hustling going on In the

as the regiment has tho full quota OF twelve

that the election would be ordered In two

Ever since the new regulations went into feet
several officers have been canvassing. and the
prospect now is that It will be o closely con-
tested light.

very strongly In the lead. Capt. Hugh Cole
man is another candidate. An ofIlcer who Is

There 10 q possible chance Of dead

the selection OF Major will rest with

such cases. At tho present time however.
