Adjutant General W. W. Moore was
conferred with by local men who
are interested In tho organization ot
a second company here and much in
lotcres-Ung information was obtained
by them. Severul announcements in
rcgurd to tho organization of tho
f eco mi company havo been mudo in
tho local papers before. . ;
It Beams that the organization ot

i (resident to the recent bill passed by
congress and., tho working out of the
details by tho war department. South,
Carolina's allouaient under tho pro
visions of tho bili would bo 18,
flQO mon, thoso to be secured by en
Increase of GO per cent each year
until tho desired number ls reached.
Gen. Mooro expressed his opinion
that there would ho no objection In
I Bccurlng this increase, in ono year.
"My contention from a sane busi
ness standpoint is that lt would be
unwise to muster too many organi
zations unless we knew what the
legislature intended doing as to tho
state appropriation," stated Gen.
Moore. "Wo aro now getting ap
, prlximately S1G.O0O, Just about
'enough' to maintain one reglmont.
"However, all: applications or now
' companies are considered by tm ad
I vistory board, composed of myself
I and tour officers of the National
? Guard. . w?v moko recommendations
to the govoruor. I woud not bo ad
verse to recommending that all com
panies, he mustered IC they could'
provide their, running expenses Until
the legislature provides , tor them.
Howevor, I do not know what the
othor. members of the board /might
fchink about the matter. , We now
I have about 15, applications on file
from diff?rent sections? of; ?bo.state."
Gen. Moore stated that in his opin
ion the sentiment ot the poopo.of tho
state generaly had changed in regard
to tho state appropriation to aid ic
the maintalnanco ot tho National
Guard, and that he thought it would
hot be .long before favorable legisla
tion would be passed.
Tho advlsorary council will meet

proposition will bo considered.
