Company G, of this city, is ready tc
go to the front as it was in the
Spanish-American war.
The following has been received by
Capt. f, /. Lucas, requesting the
enlistment of honorably discharge
members, and to increase its numbers
to war complement.
A call to active service is now
almost certain to be made on the
Wisconsin Guard. The first need will
be to increase the enlisted strength
of every company and organization to
its war complement.
Chiefly through the loyal and
diligent work of its enlisted men, the
Wisconsin National Guard has, as
organized militia, been commended
in War Department orders as model
in training and discipline.
1t now rests with you and other
discharged men of honorable service,
whether the organization in which
you served shall take the field with
ranks filled half with raw recruits or
fully with men who have had pre-
vious service and training.
Support and make strong your
home company by reporting to its
commander.
There are those who were formerly
members of company G.. who are
anxious to re-enlist. the PILOT re-
ceived the following letter from John
Mohr, which speaks for itself:
Ishpeming, Mich.
April 20, 1914.
II wired the captain of Co. g.. w.
n. g., today, that if war broke out
between Mexico and the United States
to reserve a place for me in the old
company, as | am ready TO go TO the
'front.' / could not go to the Spanish
American wax as my family was
young, but now the children are
grown up and can go and am anxious
to serve my country. | am in as
good physical condition as / was in
1898, and the shooting eye and trigger
finger work in harmony as fine as
when | was in Wausau. Please use
your influence in my behalf.
Yours truly,
john MoHR
The above is but a sample of the
way the old members of Co. G feel,
and those who can go are anxious to
do so. All arrangements are being
made to start on short notice. Capt.
Lucas, has been busy in getting every
thing ready. In case the company is
called, the call to arms Will be

Co. G has erected a fine seventy-five
foot liberty pole on the lower end
of Clarke's island, upon which is to

donation being made TO the company
by the Judge, that emblem to float
there until the end of the present
Mexican crisis. Actuated by the love
of his country inspired Judge Mar
chetti's patriotic zeal to make this
splendid donation, which is duly
appreciated by the company and all
loyal citizens as well.
Up at Ishpeming, Mich, where
John Nohr resides, who was formerly
