CAUSE or THE OPPOSITION.
Some of the Advisory Board Opposed
to Admitting the Karoyv Rifles.

1t is said now that there are certain
members OF the state military advisory
board who oppose the admission Of the
Karow Rifles into the state militia. and
If this be true Savannah's new company
will encounter no little opposition in its
efforts to secure enlistment
or course, none of the members Of the
advisory board will talk concerning the
matter at present, as it is an issue upon
which they will have to pass. but there
are those who are close to some Of the
members Of this board and they state that
opposition will be met right in that body.
The opposition is put on the ground that
there are already enough military com
panies In Savannah, and that the city
could not properly support any more. The
officers OF the regiment do not object to
the admission Of the company into the
First Regiment IN case IL is admitted as
part of the state troops, but they do
object for the reason stated, to its ad-
mission into the state troops.
With the karow Rifles and the new
company OF naval reserves now being or
gained Savannah would have fourteen
white military companies. Military men
say for efficiency a company should have
sixty active men, which, for the four
teen companies, would make a total of
$40 men, and with officers over 800 men in
active service.
They state that Savannah cannot sup
ply that number Of proficient men. men
who viii 90 into military companies for
work and active duty. If there are other
men who want to go into a military COM
pany they say there are plenty of good
military companies now in Savannah
which want and need good material, and
it Is their duty therefore, to go into and
help build up these companies TO a stand
ard Of proficiency.
The question of drawing men from
other companies TO make up the Karow
Rifles has not entered materially into the
question. The ofiicers-elect Of that COM
pany state It is not their purpose to draw
from the ranks OF any other company
