No Reorganization Of the State Guard, . Says the Governor (From a Itaft Correspondsiit) Lincoln, July 8. "Where was Moses when thet ight went out?" might also be applied to Nebraska when the Guard goes out. The question arises as to whether the State wilt be without the protect ing hand of an armed force, or will the Guard have to be reorganized. Regarding the matter, Governor Morehead told newspaper men today that as far as he is concerned the state will have, to get along without a National Guard. "I do not think a reorganization of the Guard will be necessary, said the executive. in the first place, our men may not be away very Ions' and anyway I do not think anything will be done soon in the matter." The records, of the auditor's office show that the Guard up to the middle of June, when the present emergency arose, had a fairly, good sum in the appropriations left, although it is ex pected that thit has been drawn on quite heavily to meet conditions aris ing, though later 'may be paid back by the government upon the proper showing. - . The office expense fund of $2,500 has hrrn used the heaviest of any, $2,065.88 having 'been spenU Armory rental appropriation of $25,000 showed by the books of the auditor that $15, 219.03 haa been used. The $35,000 for the support of the Guard showed that $26,147.51 had been used, while the ss.onn anoronriated for the promotion of rifle practice showed that but $1,- 159.10 had been used. This would indicate that in spite of the lack of generous appropriation by the legislature the militia board has been handling the funds in a careful manner and would have been able to have gone through the biennium with out much if any of a deficiency, had not the present trouble came along. Of course, several companies of the Guard had been mustered out because of lack of proyer encouragement but in the present eriais it waa easy to fill their places, which might not have been filled had things continued as they were.
