If thu regimnemit was Cnkcn Into 'a time state guard , then the regtpentat om- ! cern would be elceted iy the commissioned I - oflicers of ( lie companIes , the company oil- , cers themselves being elected by the mcmi I of the respotive companies.

This would a- ! . low him to npoiht the regimental olilners anti to interfere if thought expedient in the appointment of comnpuny officers. The ii change of alan was signalized by the otbctzml announccnment that Bryan had been appointed - . pointed colonel , Victor Vlfqualn lieutenant colonel and Dr. Mercer as regimental aur- " geon , without waitIng for any election. The state militia law which Governor 4 Ilolcomb is trying to avoid has the follow- . S. log provision : , The brigadier general and regimental : held ofileors shall be chosen fromim among ; time members of ( ho National Guard by the . votes of the cominissioneil ontoers of their reipectIve commands. The company officers shall 1)0 chosen by and from among the memmibers of their respective companies. The candidate receiving the greatest number of ' otcs shall be entitled to a certilicate of election. Thu brigade and regimental staff officers are appointed by their respective commanders. ' There appears to be no IntentIon on the part of Governor Ilolcomh or Colonel Bryami to allow the officers of the companies to * t .2 baYO. anything to say about who shall be ( / regimental officers.

The realization that the regiment is not going into the 8tato guard and that the -b . _ _ regimental officers have already been appointed - $ pointed by a political conference commltte has caused much dissatisfaction among the men of the regiment and numbers of them are inciting apileation to get into the First anti Second regiments. According to a recruiting - cruiting officer mummy of the members of Company A , the Lincoln company , have expressed - pressed their willingness , to go into the two . older regimnents , and the sentiment is the . - - eRnie at xher vlaces where recruiting oil- cer are stationed.
