GEN. RICHARDS VIEWS.
He would Put Names National Guard
on Better Footing for War.

A PRESS representative had an inter-
view on Friday with Adjutant General
Richards at Augusta. Gen. Richards
has recently drawn up bill to improve
the volunteer service in the United States
army and in ths National Guard, and it
has been presented to Congress by Rep
Iesentative Burleigh of Maine. This bill
is pronounced by all who have seen it to
be by far the best solution Of the trouble
some problems which now confront the
national Legislators. Gen. Richards has
devotsd many months of hard work to
this matter and has had the advantage in
preparing this bill of his own experiences
in tho volume er service Of the army in the
Civil war, long and active experience in
the State National Guard, and his know.
ledge of the requirements of the National
Guard obtained during his service as Ad.
lutant General of Maine during time of
war. Added to this Gen. Richards had
eue advice and experience of Col. Morton
in the preparation of this bill which is
pronounced by experts to more fully
meet the requirements of the country
than any which has been suggested up
20 this time. 1t is the earnest hope of
al national guardsmen in this state that
zen. Richards's bill may become law.
Speaking of the National Guard of
Maine, Gen. Richards said that he did
aot propose to ask the legislature for
much more than tho usual military ap
propriation. He does not believe in the
expenditure of money for Governors
lays, dress parades, or show. He thinks
hs time for dress uniforms and osten-
atoms military trappings has passed.
and it is his sole aim and desire to put
the Maine troops in condition for active
Service at moments notice. Gen. Rich
rds will also try and secure some legisla
ton to allow of the improvement of the
sanitary condition of the state muster
field at Augusta.
