Mr.. Strickland, in the House, has
put in an amended copy of the bill
presented two years ago to compel the
organization of the state militia to
conform to the regulations OF the
United States army. This bill was de-
feated in the Sixteenth General AS
sembly on the plea that it was pre-
sented for the purpose of legislating
out of office certain of the officers OF
the guard. and the plea gained
strength as it was found the national
army is not now organized on the
brigade formation" of which army
men speak. Had the proposed law been
enacted, it was stated. the office OF
brigadier general would have been
abolished. Mr.. Strickland has avoided
this objection by providing that all
present officers of the guard shall hold
their Offices for two years, or until
January of 1910.
