Capt. Macgenn Declares Shep
herd Cannot Hold Command
of Naval Militia.
"Capt. Edgar Simpson will remain
ns commanding ollleer of tho Uoston
and tho Oregon Naval Mllltla despite
tho outcomo of tho recent enso In
Portland," declared Capt. T. J. Mac
genn of tho Uroukwnter, lieutenant
In tho Naval Mllltla and commnndor
of tho Coos Hay divisions, on his ar
rival horo today.
"Ocorgo Shepherd Is not quallflod
for tho placo and cannot retain It.
Ho has never had any experience ns
an olllcor or a seaman. I lmvo been
told that his only sea exporlonco was
galnod 88 a passongor on a sailing
vessol from Portlond to Liverpool
and return.
"Not only this, but ho stirred up
troublo when ho did hold olllco In
tho organization, by trying to Inject
politics Into It. Pow of tho ofllcors
or men hold Mr. Shcphord In tho ro
spect duo a commanding olllcor nnd I
bollovo that most of thorn would ro-
slgu rather than servo uudor mm.
I know 1 would.
"Tho test of Mr. Shephord'a claim ,
n dm nrmlflnn will COIllO WllCll llO
goes uboard. Capt. Elliott nnd tho
other olllcora will not rocolvo him.
"Capt. Simpson Is In ovory way
qualified for tho position nnd I am
certain that ho will bo retained."
Capt. Macgenn stated that all of
tho mombors or tho Coos Hay di
visions of tho Naval Mllltla who dc
slro to go on tho nnnunl crulso imiHt
notify him nt onco or they cannot ho
nccommodnted. If tho mombors can
not seo Capt. Macgenn, they can no
tify John Motley at tho Chamber of
Comtnorco.
DIPLOMAS FOR
EIGHTH GRADE
WEST OPPOSES SHEPltEltl)
to
Governor R-oos Not Wish Mm
Couiiuiiiiil Nnvnl Mllltla.
Tho Portland Telegram says:
Whllo Oeorgo S. Sliophord has
won, by default, an opinion of Uio
court that ho rogularly was elected
captain of tho Naval Mllltla, It seems
certain Hint he will not got tho oulro
whllo aovoruor West Is chief execu
tive. It further nppearB probabln
that It tho decision handed down yov
tcrday by Judgo Ilradshaw Is to bo
glvon nny practlcnl force, tho career
of tho Naval Mllltla may bo cut short
by tho Oovornor.
Whllo horo today Govonior West
did not discuss It. Ho seoms to feel
f nt Shepherd Is not a right man for
tho offlco ho Is trying to got h.
forco, and tho full power of the- chief
executive's offlco Is to bo omployed
to provont his getting tho placo. It
waH Intimated today thai tho Attor
nny Oonornl will bo required to probo
tho situation on bohnlf of tho Btato,
nnd seo thnt tho stnto Ih protected In
Its right to keep out of tho offlco n
ninn whom tho chief commnndor be
IIovoh unfit for It.
The lognl point decided by Judgo
llrndshnw went by dofnult, becnuso
no ono cares to nnswer. Shcphord
wns ousted when subordinates of tho
Nnvnl Mllltla concluded thnt ho lin.l
no nbllltv for tho position, and when
potty broils throntoned tho existent
of the. commnnd. Then tho enlisted
men of tlo old Nnvnl Mllltla, after)
vigorous electioneering by the ousted
rnntnlii, re-elected him. Hut tin
stnto officials hold that only com
in'sslonod officers had n right to elect
the- captnln. Tho difference- of opln-j
Ion grew from tho fnet that tho stato.
nuthorltles hold that tho captnln In.
the nnvy, ranking as n colonel of the
nrmy, Is elected In the sninn iiianno-,
w''oreaH. Shoiiliord Insists that n cap-,
tnln In the navy, whllo ranking ns a .
colonol, Is yot designated ns n cap-)
tnln. and should bo chosen ns captains
of the nrmy In tho gunrd orgnnlza-!
tlnn. J
That the wholo muss might bo
cleaned up nftor tho first big frncnsj
urdor tho Slionhord roglnio, tlo on-!
tiro Nnvnl Mllltla was dlHhanded. nu.l
n now organization perfected under n
now law. This orgun'zntlon proceed
ed to select tho officers now In
charge. Shepherd brought nn In
junction against, tho first captain
chosen, but he resigned. Then Simp
Bon wns unuiod captain, and Shep
herd proceeded against lilm. Simp
son wnB reduced to tho rank of eoni
inander nt tho tlmo of tho oxnmlnu-
th ns. Then thoro wns no captain to'
defend In tho case. Tho Btato, believ
ing tho suit n fnrco nnd ponding
ngnlnst n person who did not oxlst is i
CMn'iln, did not dofond. Hut tho
court rendered n Judgment by dofnult. !
which Is npparoutly In fnvor of.
Shepherd's contentions. As no legal (
Ibsiiob woro fought out, no defenso'
mndn. tho Judgment Is regarded as
dee'dlng nothing, nud It Is snld that t
Oovornor West will not nceopt Shop-'
herd ns a captnln of tho Nnvnl Mllltla. !
In tho meantlmo tho Oovornor BnyH .
ho Is waiting to determine whether i
the Mllltla Justifies existence, and
wMl give It the remainder of thin,
month boforo deciding.
