SCOTT AND OBFAR ARE
STILL IN COMMAND
Both Are Re-appOinted By
Gov. Brown.

Andrew j. Scott has been reappoint-
ed adjutant general, and William G.
Obear quartermaster general of the
national guard of Georgia. Following
several weeks of anxious waiting both
on the part of the applicants and the
military, the announcement of the ap-
pOintments will be received with gem
eral satisfaction throughout the state.
The position of adjutant general was
rendered Judge S. w. Harris, of Car
roll, who held that place under Ter
rell, but he declined it,
Governor Browns tender of the
place to Judge Harris was in defer
ence to appeals from Confederate vet
Grams and others. The military forces
undoubtedly wanted General Scott, and
had given him unqualified endorce-
ment.
Adjutant General Scott is serving
now his second term as head of the
military organization of the state.
During Governor Terrell's admins
tration he was assistant to Judge Har-
ris, and then demonstrated his ability
for executive work He had long been
connected with the military and is in
thorough sympathy with it.
Quartermaster General Obear was
opposed by Lieutenant Colonel Lewis,
but Gov. Brown felt that General
Obear's experience and Endorsements
entitled him to the reappointment.
This will be his second term as quar-
termaster general, altho he has been
connected with the military organiza-
ton many years.
The two appointments will please
the military forces throughout the en-
tire state.
