Young. Governor Craig received a
telegram from The New York Sun
reading as follows:
I'm event of Intervention in Mexico
how mapy troops could your state fur
nish at 0nce?"
Governor Craig was leaving for
Asheville and authorized Gen. Young
to answer it. His answer follows:
by direction of the governor it is
stated that the entire National Guard
OF North Carolina, comprising one in
fantry brigade, six companies of coast
artillery, two troops of cavalry, one
ambulance company, one field hospital
company, are Immediately available
for service in Mexico or anywhere
else Actual peace strength 225 Off
GERS and 3,O26 enlisted men. All Or
CARNATIONS can be recruited to war
strength within ten days. All organi-
cations are fully equipped for field
service and entire personnel ready to
respond instantly for the service of
our country
General Young is not expecting arm
ed Intervention in Mexico and is not
hoping for it, but he is justly proud of
the condition of the state gaurd and
the patriotic spirit of its officers and
men. He has assurances from them
that make him absolutely certain that
not man would be found wanting in
case the guard is needed to quell the
instruction in Mexico and protect
American lives
General Young will go to Washing
ton this week to appear before the
military committee of the house in
the hearings on the militia bill now
pending. He is member of the leg
islative committee of the National
Guard Association. He had no COM
ment to make on the bills now before
congress, other than to say that the
Chamberlain bill, introduced in the
senate, seemed to embody the ideas
of those who are supporting the Ma
tional Guard.

tobacco at the Granville county test

will prove immensely helpful to all
