NOT SO EASY 4 ** TO GET DISCHARGE Guards With Dependants Find It Hard To Secure Their Discharge From Army. Guards with, dependent families are not finding it easy to get their discharges from the airmy, notwithstanding the recent ruling of the war department that members of the militia; with families dependent upon them can secure their discharge if application is made. Adolph Hesis, of Newktod, a member of Co. M, with a wife and six children dependent upon him, has made application for his discharge, but he is still on the border. The trouble seems to be too much red tape. The w r ar department’s rule is deceptive. On the face it appears most beneficent. In actual operation, however, it is about as easy to invoke a writ of babas corpus when the prison key is lost. Any man may make application, hut here is what he must do: First, obtain the affidavit of three disinterested persons in his home town that his family is really dependent and that he is the sole means of support; second, the persons Who make these affidavits must be vouched for to the satisfaction of the colonel of the regiment; third, the colonel muts pass upon the application before if goes through; fourth, General Funston looks it over; fifth, the war department unrolls a couple of yards of red tape, and on down the line. Auditor Hammond last week received -the papers in the Hess case, with the -request to get the affidavits of three parties who were named vouching as to th truth of the matters set forth in Hess’ application for discharge. It is estimated that a month is the shortest time in which an enlisted man may gain his exemption papers. Hess is the only member of Co. M, as far as we have learned, who has made application for his discharge.—
