John Brisben Walker, editor of

studied the regular army and the

Il believe that the National Guard

tinctly specified on what terms they
can go into the field without reorgan-
ization. That the field officers should
be West Pointers who are willing to ac-
cept half pay and engage in other oc-
equations In the cities while giving half
their time to training their regiments.
In this way. trained military officers
would be brought into contact with the

escape many of the mistakes OF regular
army officers who come from the rou-
tine of the army to handle fresh men

before we can decide whether IL should

are the questions. No one seems to

The national guard n h regular

'as a matter OF courtesy. but he can or

OF THIS sort came up during the civil
War. The governor OF New York state
refused TO call out the Fourteenth OF

President Lincoln for orders 10 come on.
When his command arrived at WASH

the national guard is organized for
these three purposes, and these only:

men to repel invasion whenever he
pleases. he may order them to serve out

The National Government should Help
support the state Militia and Commits
sion All the Officers In IT.

My opinion is that II Will be neces-
sary To continue the militia about as
II is nov constituted In order TO pre-
serve proper popularity in the several
states; but, II IL be called the national
guard, IL ought to receive help from the
nation and some consideration In re-
turn for that help. I mean, help by APP
preparation OF money, and In return
that the president indorse the officers
appointed by the governor to make
them veritable officers in the national
guard. To effect this I would consti-
tute boards Of examination consisting
of three men in each state. these boards
to be composed OF known military
men. n of whom at least should be
an officer as high as the rank OF field
officer. The duty OF this board should
be to examine and pass upon the quail
hcations of every commissioned officer
nominated for commission ove the
state contingent OF the national guard.
The governor had better nominate
and commission. None. OF course. re-
ceiving commission till they have
passed the said board.
This would answer for all except the
medical officers. Possibly for them II
would be better TO increase my pro-
posed board to five members. two OF
whom should be medical officers OF
standing. and at least n from the
regular service.
Experience has shown hat we must

for me several months ago. We are
practically sim working under the old
militia bill Of 1895.
