Joint Camp at Atascadero OFFICERS MUST DO DUTY | Many Organizations Will' Net Make Showing in This Year's Shooting at Targets A S | i S Adjutant General J. B. Lauck in or-; expresses the thanks of the com- nder in chief to every officer and sted man of the National Guard of ifornia who participated in the joint maneuvers at Camp Atascadero for their zealous efforts In making the en- campment an unqualified success from every point of view. The adjutant gen- eral says: 'The general interest and efficiency shown, together with the dis- cipline and conduct 6f the men, merit the highest praise. The work was well accomplished and of infinite value to’ State troops, and they are to be congratulated for the excellent show- ing made by them at the encampment.” Colonel as Wilhelm, inspector general of r practice on the staff of the commander in chief, has been de- tailed a member of the board to formulate proposed amendments to the military ws of the State, vice ham, deceased. The adjut general is not sparing in his language on the subject of what he deems errors in the guard: “Atten- ' m is called to the frequency and persistence with which the subject matter of orders is overlooked or ig- nored by th concerned, thereby ausing this office needl labor and thw ng the efforts of superior parters to introduce measures of it to the guard. All orders mus{ be carefuily read immediately upon re- ' and the provisions contained therein must be complied with at the earliest possible moment. If an officer has not the time or inclination to read and comply with orders or directions from superior authority, he is not a good officer and is not doing his duty, ! and it is not to the best interests of the ! State to have such officer in the Na-| tional Guard. SCRUTINIZE OFFICERS, The attention of all examining boards of the National Guard and of the Naval Militia is called to the necessity of closer scrutiny of officers elected or ap- | pointed and whose qualifications should be determined before they are recom- mended for a commission. ! Careful inquiry will be made as to the private life and occupation of each candidate appearing for examination in order to ascertain if his position in private life will warrant his acceptance of a commission in the National Guard | or I Militia and the proper per- formance of the duties incident thereto. Particular inquiry must be made as to the occupation in which the candidate is engaged, which must be correctly stated in the report of the board. It is a common occurrence for an officer after accepting a commission to offer as an excuse for an utter failure prop- | erly to perform the duties devolving upon him the nature or demands of his business. In the case of a busy man ac- | cepting a commission something of a hardship and 1f-sacrifice is neces- sarily entailed in the right perform- ance of his duties, and unless he feels that he can give the time and atten- tion that those duties demand he should not accept the commission. The opin- icn of the board as to the physical, moral and professional qualifications of candidates must also be stated. More attention must also be given to the qualifications of candidates in seden- tary duties, it being apparent that many officers are woefully lacking in their knowledge of this very important part of an officer’'s education. Atten- tion is further directed to the import- ance of making examinations more | thorough and rigid. In some instances it would seem as if the meetings of ex- amining boards had been merely for- mal and the conducting of the exam- ination perfunctory. Whenever for any se the board finds a candidate dis- qualified for a commission a full state- ment of the case must be made. A full compliance with the above directions will be insisted on. DE The attention of all officers is also | called to the rules and regulations rela- | ca ! tive to applications for and ordering of | elections in view of the fact that there | have been many instances in the past ! in which an election has been ordered | after the term of an officer had ex- | pired. “This,” says the adjutant gen- eral, “must be coptinued and an elec-! tions must be ordered as provided for by law.” 1 Many of the officers of the guard not | having provided themseives with prop- er uniforms as required by general or- | ders issued in 1203, commanding offi cers have been notified that they will be held responsible for the non-com- | pliance by officers under them to pro- cure the uniforms prescribed. All the officers of the guard who fail- | ed to participate in the maneuvers at Atascadero have been notified that they must furnish an excuse through the proper channels to the superior office for their absence. | TARGET PRACTICE. The target practice season has been extended to December 31. Such prac- tice will be taken up by those organiza- tions that have approved ranges. While | those organizations that can will im- | mediately proceed to carry out the ! provisions of the orders relative to tar- set practice, those that are unable to complete the entire course as pre- scribed on account of lack of proper range facilities will complete such por- tion as may be possible. Those or- ganizations that are unable to ‘secure any ranges whatever are to report that fact to the adjutant general. In view of this, many of the organizations will not make a record for 1904. A peculiar feature, say thosé who are up on tar- get practice, is that the order makes no mention of section C of the firing regulations under which the guard shoots, but mentions two other sec- tions for guidance under which the guard does not shoot. Charles Evander Hill has been com- missioned captain of Company B, Sixth Infantry, vice Newell, term expired, | cerporation, which will mean the pay ! election has been issued to John Alex- ! ment. YS ELECTIONS. ! i TWO0 RAILROADS ¥ i [ OUT OF COURT Injunction Against Ticket Brokers Partially Dis- solved by Judge Murasky l:‘ILE ARTICLES MUST Rock Island and Burling- ton Companies Have Vio- lated California Statute By a ruling of Judge Musrasky yes- terday morning in the ticket brokers’ case, two big railroad corporations are | debarred from maintaining legal or equity actions in the courts of Califor- | nia until they comply with the law requiring them to file copies of their articies of incorporation with the Sec- retary of State. The Burlington and Rock Island systems are affected by | the decision and ticket scalpers will be permitted to deal in tickets over their | lines. The Southern Pacific and the otheri connecting lines named as co-plaintiffs | in the suit against Ottinger and others | might have been involved in the rul- ing had the Judge not held that evi- dence had not been produced show- ing their failure to comply with the law. The evidence agalnst the two rcads named was in the form of an affidavit of J. Hoesch of the Secretary of State's office, who stated that their articles were not on flle. 1 The roads joining the Southern Pa- cific in the action against the brokers | were the Oregon Railroad and Naviga- | tien Company, the Oregon Short Line, the Union Pacific, the Chicago, Bur- lington and Quincy, the Chicago, Rock Island and Pacific and the Northern Mail Orders Our Mail Order Department affords out-of-town buyers the shopping ad- vantages enjoved by local patrons.

On August 18 they secured an injunction prohibiting the brokers | from dealing in the Knights Templar and Odd Fellows excursion tickets. Samuel Shortridge, attorney for the brokers, yesterday moved that the in- junction be dissolved, his principal ground being the failure of the com- panies to comply with the act of March 8, 1901. Judge Murasky grant- | ed the motion as to the two roads but | not as to the others for the reason stated, holding that while the por- ticn of the act imposing a $500 fine for its violation was unconstitutional, match; beautiful design; ex- ceptionally fine value, at.... $12.50 | match, several designs to skirt complete robe, entirely select from, at............ $14-50 new designs, speu‘_xal zt;. 5 318.50 X Sterling Silver Thimbles At 12c Each Instead of 25¢ (First Floor Butter St If you want good, solid silver Thimbles at a very low We've secured a large lot to sell’ at this sensational price. neatest designs, in all sizes, for both ladies and children, Thimbles that sell regularly at 25¢ each.

The result will be that the scalpers will sell portions of tickets over the Burlington and Rock Isl- and lines until they can bring the other roads under the ruling or un- til the roads filetheir articles of in- ment of many thousands of dollars into the Sfate Treasury. Mr. Short- ridge contended that another law had been violated in that none of the roads had filed their articles with the Coun- | ty Clerk, but the Judge did not take | cognizance of it. | The contempt proceedings against | Proker T. A. Rigdon were again taken up and Judge Murasky made another | important ruling, holding that rule six adopted by the Superior Court Judges | iz null and void because it conflicts with the statutes. The rule provides that an order to show cause may be deemed a notice of motion and au- thorizes contrary affidavits in con- tempt cases. In upholding the statute as against the rule the court refused to admit the affidavits of Anna Sides and Da Wasserman of Chicago, tending to exculpate Rigdon. Mr. Shortridge, however, got them before | the court by attaching them to Rig- | don's answer as an amendment. A | continuance of the case until Novem- ber 15 was then granted to permit the taking of the depositions of the Chi- cago witnesses.
