against the name OF Mr.. Reed being
placed upon the republican ticket, inas-
much as, besides himself, another repub-

LINCOLN. March 16.-(Special

announced this afternoon that the
entire National Guard of Nebraska
Rad been ordered to mobilize at Lin

nation about the time the troops

fore the Nebraska National Guard
could be mustered into the service Of
the United States another regiment
would have to be recruited.
1t is generally believed here that the

tion that the adjutant general has worked
out TO have the brigade ready to move at
moments notice in case its services
should be needed. There probably will
be no movement Of troops until fur

cided Again this year it has al
ready been brought to the lime
light by the action Of President

amended so that unless play was
being made on man, should play

the committee to be the sensible
thing to do.
