STATE HOUSE..
A General Order That Has Been Some.
what Misunderstood.
Successful Candidates Of the Maine Board oil
Medical Registration.

Since the order issued, last week, in re
gard to a board of inquiry to examine
into the efficiency qualifications and con
duct of several officers of the National
| Guard. was issued, several have been
asking for what the board is called to-
gether. There has even been a faint sus-
| picion among those who knew nothing
whatever of the matter that there Nigh,
| be some choice bit of scandal or gossip
| in the matter.
| But alas for the hopes of the scandal
mongers, there is nothing of the sort in
| it. The affair is simply one of the for
malities of the National Guard without
which the guard could not be run
| The board will inquire more than any
| thing else into the qualifications of the
| officers named in the list, as they are
| with one or two exceptions officers who
have been declared by surgeons physical
~ unable to continue IN the service.
| They We're turned down by the surgeons
of the LIST Maine Volunteers and in con-
sequence ii is not thought advisable for
them TO continue in the service in case
they are no better than then. This is
merely one of the forms provided in the
rules and regulations for the maintain
ing of an efficient corps of officers-efi-
cient both in mental and physical quail
ties. If the officers can pass a satisfac-
tory examination now they will doubtless
be retained, but in case they are as they
We're one year ago, they will not be con
| sidered efficiently qualified to hold their
positions.
The remaining few officers named have
ha. nrIn Inf -.
, to the reason why they have not report
cd for duty as is the case with one or
two of them who are known to be quail
he'd to remain in the service. They nave
| not reported, some being out of the State
and in case they do not answer they will
! be acted upon in some manner.
