GUARD CAMPS TO BE
DIYIDEDTHIS YEAR
Adjutant General Hall Makes Best
Possible Arrangements, Consid
ering Funds on Hand.
OVERLAND HAUL FOR FREIGHT
(From a tPaff Correspondent.)
LINCOLN. July 17. (Speclnl.)-Tho
penurious system which the last legis
lature attempted t put Into effect In an
effort to cut down expenses is alrady
beln feltl by the one department o? the
state, the Nebrarka national iriiarvl.
The house cut tho guard appropriation
about M per cent, but the senate re
fused to stand for the cut and was able
to force tho house to ome to Its terms
and replace the amount to what t waa
the last blennlum, although tho adjutant
general bad asked for a coneidenxolo
increase for efficiency.
The result of the economy scheme has
forced tho adjutant general to divide up
the state encampment Into two differ
ent eatmpa, placing them In portions of
tho state where tho companies may bo
moved at the very least expense. This
will be ta tho expense of efficiency, be
cause not as good work can be secured
intwo camps as thero can having tho
guard all together In one place. Tho
Urns Is also cut down from ten days to
seven days, which praotlcally means only
flvo days for drill.
In locating tho camp of the Fifth regi
ment, the adjutant general attemtped to
place it at Hastings, but tho funds of
the guard were so low, caused by tho
lack of appropriations, that ho was com
pelled to locate tho camp at Grete, about
twenty miles from Lincoln, where all
equipment and supplies of tho gard may
bo moved across country by wagon In
stead of shipped by train.
Tho different points for encampments
are as follows!
