The encampments at Oskaloosa. Attain
tic and Cedar Falls We're reported by
the guard officials as highly satisfac-
tory. The squestion of a permanent
camp ground will next be considered,
and there is no doubt that i'll a few
years this will be disposed of. This
should be at some central place and yet
it is desired that it be not too near a
large city. a camp a some point along
the Des Moines. Iowa or Cedar rivers
is regarded by the guardsmen as most
desirable. The proposition that the
ground around old Fort Atkinson he
purchased for that purpose has not met
whit favor from the guardsmen. A
has been made that ground
be selected not far from the new army
post at Des Moines. but the guardsmen
do not care to be near the regulars at
camp time. or any other time. Even if
permanent camp grounds are selected.
it is probable that hereafter there will
be four regiments of the guard.
