to go to Fort Riley is an unfair one.
Some time ago Director Gormly wrote
General Metcalf, explaining that it
would be impossible for the band to go
could not afford to leave their positions
here for ten days, and offering to apply
for discharge If he thought best.
The Ottawa band has been the First
regiment band three years. During
that time the band received $500 from
the state. At the encampment of the
First regiment here year ago the
band played four days, which was
worth at least $500. So the state is at
least 500 ahead on the three years
deal. Besides, the First regiment band
now easily commands $3.50 day, and
it cannot afford to keep the position of
regimental band, playing at a ten days
encampment each year for 800 a year.
Director Gormly will not publicly
discuss Adjutant General Fox's action,
for until formally discharged the band
is still under command of General Fox.
Mr.. Gormly this morning received no.
tice that the band will be dishonorably
discharged for refusing to go to Fort
Riley and a demand on the band for
the return of the equipment furnished
by the state. This consists of some
blue uniforms which are never worn.
They will return the uniforms at once
and receive their discharge
Adjutant General Fox last evening
issued a formal order mastering the
band out of the national guards. Hon
orable discharges were given to c. E
Gormly, the leader. and w. p. Felix
manager of the band, who were willing
accordance with the orders of the adju-
tant general. Some other band will
probably be designated as the First
regiment band, but it is probable thai

band has had over the matter

SOUR BREAD.
Annoyed the Doctor.

If you get right down to the bottom OF

and the way to correct it is not by
drugs but by using the right food.
A physician in Barron, Wis, writes
an instructive letter on this point. He
says: 81 am practicing physician. As

OTTAWA BANDS SIDE.
Their Version of the Kansas National
Guard Controversy.

The ottawa Republic gives the side
of the First regiment band of that
place and its reasons for not going to
the Fort Riley encampment, and the
reasons of the band will doubtless ap-
peal to the great majority Of people.
The members of the band are to be
censured, of course, for asking to be
made the official band of the First reg
iment and accepting their accOutre-
ments from the state if they did not
wish to obey the military rules to WHICH
they would be subjected, but at the
same time they cannot be entirely
blamed for not wishing to take a vaca-
ton when it meant the permanent loss
of positions upon which they are de-
pendent for the support of their lam
lilies.
The Emporia company of the K. N. G..
got around a similar dilemma by
threatening to boycott any business
man who is so unpatriotic as to dis
charge a member of the militia for at
tending the encampment-
After quoting an article regarding the
threatened dishonorable discharge of
the Ottawa band for refusing to at
tend the encampment. the Ottawa Re-
public says:
That's all right. some of it. The
Ottawa band should be censured for
one thing-they shouldn't have Joined
the regiment in the first place, as they
knew they would be called out for duty
once year Inc boys CAN get OIL
from their jobs for a day or two days
at time, but to get layoff at this
particular time when the busiest season
of the year is on us and layoff for two
weeks at that, Is simply out of the
question. The young man who insists
on taking it jeopardizes his position.
1.-The members of the band them
selves are very much Inundated over
the impending disgrace The stain
seems almost inerradicable- But what
can they do? Can they throw up a
Job where jobs are scarce as hens
teeth for the sake of wearing uni
form and drawing 81 cents q day and
expenses for ten days? The most of
the young men in the band are sup
porting themselves, many of them are
married and have families, and it would
be absolutely criminal for them to risk
their source of bread and butter. Would
the tin soldier up at Topeka who is
censuring them SO severely have them
deprive their families of bread and but
ter to come up and play at his dinky
little war game? The adjutant's zeal
oversteps his common sense and judg
ment and even his honesty He is talk
Ing through his cooked chapeau. He
distorts facts for the sole purpose of
adding to the humiliation of the First
regiment band.
