Gen. Cutting** Hill.
Gen. John T. Cutting, whorepresents
the Fourth district of California in the
House, is getting disgusted at the way
in which important measures are
slighted by Congress. He says that
“there are 110.00(1 meinfa*rs of volun
teer military companies in the United
States who are looking eagerly to this
Congress for the passage of the bill I
have introduced for the upbuilding of
the militia and the benefit of the whole
country. My bill is non-partisan, non
sectional, intone res with none of the
rights of the States,won’t take a dollar
out of the Treasury, and yet. while it
is conceded to be one of the most meri
torious measures before the House, it
seems impossible to get it considered.”
Mr. Cutting was a gallant soldier dur
ing the war, serving in Taylor's Chi
cago battery and also in the celebrated
Chicago Mercantile battery, and since
the war has taken great interns tin the
militia, having been a brigadier-gen
eral of the California militia.
