approximately $3 for every man. woman

flop Brook* all* especial attention to ti e
deficiency of minted men to prop*rly man
the coast defense forts nnd batteries.
Referring t bis own department, that of
the Knrt. be kovs ther** is a shortage of
about 11,000 enlisted men, and n corre
sponding number of officers. Gen. RrcMke
desires, of osirif, to have that additional
number of enlisted men for coast defense
purposes—otherwise heavy artillerymen—
provided for in the next regular army bill
w hlch shall Ih* parsed by Congress.
But is It necessary to Ipive the coast
defense forts at all times fully garrisoned
and by regular soldiers? It se*ma tbot
the state volunteer troops might well he
largely availed of for roast defense
service. Practically all of the
defenses are mar cltlea or larg**
towns. In timen of peace the
could lo garrisoned by email r*'gu
lar forces. Meantime state volunteers
could be organized ami Instructed as
heavy artillery so that in the event of n
foreign war they could be qul- kly thrown
into the nearest fortification*. This is the
governing Idea in thi* proposition of the
Savannah Volunteer Guards to become a
iottalion of heavy artillery’.
It is stated that the general government
favors the organisation of volunteer
troo|s into heavy artillery commands,
That being true, the way would seem to
ho c lear to providing and training all of
the heavy artillerymen that would be
needed in the ev?nt of war. without
largely Inertaslng that branch of the ser
ve## in the staialing army. The volunteer
artillerymen could be Instructed and drill
ed In the manipulation of the heavy guns
hy the officers and small regular t m
mands at the forts, making a comieteu?
volunteer garrison always quickly avails
bio in case of need. Proper oncourigement
on the part of the national government
would in all probability result In th**
speedy organisation of heavy artillery vol
