tionality Of the espionage act.
The court bases Its opinion largely
on the part Of the indictment charging

tic In the measure and not only makes

PRESIDENTIAL CANDIDATE.

Debs, fou times q candidate for
president Of the United States, began
his Industrial life as q locomotive fire
man on the Terre Haute & I%ndianapo-
lis railroad. He was born in Terre
Haute, Ind, Ga years ago. For years
he was prominent In the firemen
brotherhood. playing ar active part in
several strikes. In 1885 he was a mem
Der Of the Indiana Legislature. In 1900
he ran for president on the social dem
ocratic ticket and he was the candi-
date of the socialist party in 1904, 1908
and 1912.
Pro-Gerunanism Charged.
The indictment on which Debs was
convicted charged him with attempting
to incite transformation, ~disloyalty,
mutiny and refusal of duty in the mil
itary and naval forces. attempting to
obstruct recruiting and enlistments
and with uttering and publishing Ian
guage intended to produce the resis-
lance to the United States, as well as
to promote the enemy's cause" The
Indictment contained 10 counts. but
conviction was only on three. When
placed on trial Debs called no wit
nesses in defense and made the only
argument in his own behalf. In APP
pealing to the supreme court, he at
tackled the admission in evidence by the
lower court OF the St. Louis socialist
platform, which he had endorsed and
records from the trial Of Rose Pastor
Stokes, and alleged he had been tried
on his state OF mind" Validity of the
espionage act was also attacked by
Debs, who alleged 1t violated the right
of free speech.

NOTES FROM THE
ADJ. GEMS. OFFICE

Inc puDi1catlon OF the OHicial
Bulletin has been resumed from the
Office Of The Adjutant General and
the number just issued. bearing date
of August 81, is full Of matter Of in
terest to- present and former mem
bers Of Names splendid National
Guard organization. Included is the
following:
From information received it looks
struction for the ard Maine Infantry,
August 80 to September 13. inclusive,
will be one Of the best ever held at
Augusta. Notwithstanding the fact
that the encampment is later than
usual everything is being arranged
to make the men comfortable so far
as clothing goes and extra blankets
will be issued if necessary. The cit
liens of Augusta are planning to give
the boys good time.
In looking back over the history Of
the organization of the 3rd Maine
the only conclusion we can arrive at
is that the regiment was organized
a year or so before it could be
equipped although we had every as
surance that this would be done at
once. Equipment and clothing are
now being received and can be issued
upon requisition and the Quarter
master Department is sending out
supplies as fast as possible. 1t is
hoped that by August 80 the regi-
ment will be very nearly fully
equipped. From time to time word
has been received that wooden cloth
ing was ready for issue upon requisi-
ton to the Militia Bureau but. when
received it would be in such sizes
and much of it renovated instead of
new so that it was not practical to
issue to the companies. At last
however. suitable clothing is being
received and most of the sizes re-
uuired are on hand and, as stated, ii
| is hoped by the beginning Of camp
that every man will be properly
equipped.
The drill pay of companies since
the organization of the 3rd Maine ur
to January 1. 1919, is now being held
up by the Militia Bureau on accoun,
| of a ruling of the comptroller of the
treasury, awaiting final ruling by
the Judge advocate general. The
Militia Bureau hopes this matter
will be settled at an early date.
