The lack of interest among the members of the Iowa National guard Is causing some apprehension for the future of the guard. Only a Tew weeka ago the adjutant general ordered that the company at Stuart, in the Fifty-first regiment, be mustered out and thla was done.

The report of tbe drills made to the ad jutant general for the quarter ended Oc tober 1 ahowa that two other companies have become very weak and interest is slight. Those are the company at Marshall town In the Forty-ninth and the company at Hampton In the Fifty-second regiment. The percentage of attendance at both fell below 50, in the case of Marshalltown being 47.72 and at Hampton S4.15. Tbe adjutant general has ordered the Inspector general to go to these places within the next ten days and make an Inspection and report whether the companlea sball be disbanded. Military authorities are unable to account tor the marked decrease in interest tn tbe guard companies In the state.

Last spring, when the city election wss on, about 1,500 voters were added to the list. Many who were absent from home at the fall election were In tbe city for the spring election and tbe vote waa conse quently heavier than It had been In the fall. As the city has grown considerably since the last general registration it la expected tbat the aecond day's registration, which occurs on Friday, will be larger than It was a year ago. Some politicians predict tbat tbe total registration thia fall will go over 5,000. Serving; Sidewalk Notices.
