At the outset of the Spanish war all the state militia went into the volunteer service, many of the officers getting commissions and most of the men enlisting. These men are now scat tered over the state, on furlough, waiting to be mustered out of the service Of the government, and the state mililia has not been reorganized, pending mustering out by the government.
