| cedent or law adequate for such an
emergency. nor provision for the ex-
penses which had to be borne largely
! by the state. AS there were no funds
| appropriated for such purpose, the
members of the Idaho national guard
were compelled to accept only half pay.
The other half is due them today, and
/ earnestly recommend that sufficient
appropriation be made to pay the men
o., in full, and to meet the Indebtedness
incurred in connection with the mobi-
lzation, which is yet unpaid. Under
a law passed by the legislature. def
cheney warr2nts could not be issued.
The adiutant general will submit his
report to your honorable body, with a
list of the bills contracted in the per-
Torrance of the duties devolving upon
the state at that critical time.
In the performance of this patriotic
duty, the officers of the state took
upon themselves the right by necessity
to incur these obligations. which I
have no doubt will meet with your ar
proval, inasmuch as the matter could
not be handled in any other way, and
! inasmuch as haste was necessary and
the eXigencies beyond the ordinary
provisions of law.
I am happy to inform you that of
the twelve hundred officers and men
furnished to the national government
! by the state Of Idaho by this call, all
save four have been returned to the
state and will be mustered out of the
service of the national government
within the next few days. OF the
losses sustained. there was one death
by accident and three throug SICK
ness.
No state has greater reason to he
proud of the men and the officers fur
\ nished to tho national government than
has Idaho. The Second idaho regiment
enjoys the unique and proud distinc-
ton of being the hes. drilled, best
equipped and most splendid body Of
men furnished by any state in the
Union at the call of the government of
the United States. The necessities Of
the government having been met, the
troops have been returned to their
state and will soon be sent to their
homes, officers and men all receiving
the merited praise of our people. The
loyal and devoted spirit show: by the
men who constituted the Secon, Idaho
regiment cannot be too highly praised.
They came from all ranks of tho life
: of our commonwealth, and they offered
themselves willingly and gladly at the
