The order is as follows: ' "The 6regon national guard having been drafted into the service of th United States and there being reason able apprehension of forcible obstruc tion to the laws and immense danger of breaches of tho peace, you are di rected to enroll 240 of the unorganiz ed militia, or such number as may vol unteer to serve the state during the present war, and forward a list there of to the commander in chief through the adjutant general's office," recites the order. "You are empowered to accept as such volunteers tho members of the or ganization calling themselves the Ore gon State Guards " While the number may not be en larged it will be done if necessary, and will be recruited from the Spanisn war veterans and those who saw ser vice on the"Mexican border, so it can soon be worked into shape. It is not intended the men will ever be used in service outsiife of the state, and it is organized only for the pur pose of having some kind of a military organization to back up the civil au thorities in case of need. The Oregon state guard as at present composed con sists of three companies mostly Span ish war veterans, and it is thought these will volunteer in their entirety- A "moose" enlgted yesterday in the aviation service for Uncle Sam, through the local "tecruiting office.
