THE PASSING OF THE COLONEL


There are some $50 Georgia "col-
onels," as they are commonly
known, who haveno particular de-
sire to lay aside with next Deem
Der their gorgeous uniforms and
magnificent gold braid, and yet
this is what they must do unless
the military law is so changed at
the coming session of the Legisla-
ture as to permit them to retain
commission and uniform for a.
further period of two years, dur
ing which Gov. Terrell will remain
in office.
Announcement has already been
made that an effort will be forth
coming to secure such an amend
ment to the law, and it will be
made with Gov. Terrell's approval,
because he would prefer to retain
his staff as at present constituted,
during his entire term of office.
The Governor, however, will not
refer to the matter in his message
to the Legislature.
The new military law passed two
years ago not only limits the num-
Der of lieutenant colonies ON the
Governors staff to twenty eight,
but provides that Gas a prerequisite
to appointment to this position,
such aide de- camp shall have held
a commission in either the Confed-
crate States army or navy, in the
Georgia state troops, or in the
United States army or navy
Very few of the present 100 odd
lieutenant colonies, it is said, could
qualify under these requirements,
therefore the Governor might be
relieved of much embarrassment in
creating his new staff of twenty
eight members, and yet it is natu-
rally his desire not to have this
duty put upon him. He would, OF
course, prefer to retain his staff as
it stands throughout his second
term of office, and let the new law
become operative with the begin.
ming Of a new administration.
| The military officials, strictly
speaking, have never viewed with
great favor a large staff of lieuten-
antcolonels, the majority of whom
are appointed from civil life with
out previous military experience
They had hoped, therefore, that
the matter would not be agitated
:, But now that it has been opened
Iup, the outcome will be awaited
with interest.
| 1t is not likely that any of the
military officials will oppose the
attempt to amend the law, so il
will be a matter that will be en-
tirely up to the Legislature. TIL.
proposed amendment, it is said
will provide merely for an extern
sion of the present arrangement re
garding the Governors staff for {
period of two years, or during tn,
life of Gov. Terrell's second term
Then the limit of not less than foul
nor more than twenty eight lieu
tenant colonies will come into fore,
again.
And the new Governor will hav,
to make the best of it-unless, il
the meantime there should be an
other change back to old methods
