From Petition of the Nationals to Governor
Gillett.
The Nationals. famous for more than
half century in the military history
of California and the United States,
have risen in a mighty protest against
the new regime under which the serv-
ice has passed. They have prepared
what amounts to round robin, setting
their discharge. The document was
presented yesterday to Governor Gill
lett in Sacramento and came to him as
a distinct shock and surprise. The
SO men who signed realized full well
that they were laying themselves open
to grave charges of insubordination,
but they felt that the danger should
be braved forsthe ultimate good of the
service.
The petition is sensational in the
extreme, and brings to an abrupt focus
the controversy that has long been
waged over the state military organi-
zation The question assumes national
Importance in view of the fact that
upon the special request of the war
department an auxiliary coast defense

Griswold came west from his home ir
Massachusetts, living for a time al

His working hours were put in at a

Griswold and others musically bent
decided that he had a voice. He studied
and for two years was bass soIoist in
the First Congregational church choir
AS his voice developed he decided to go
to Europe to study. This was about
eight years ago. Griswold circulated
between London, where he first worked
and Paris. In a comparatively short
time the young musician had shown
the masters of the old world that he
possessed a remarkable voice, so re-
markable, in fact, that the attention
of the music masters of Berlin was at
tracted to the former Oaklander.

He was summoned to the German
capital, where he made good to such an
extent that he was signed for six years
with the Royal opera company. Friends
in Oakland were delighted to know
that Griswold had won further musical
fame by getting a contract with the
Metropolitan opera company in New
