The; did not enquire the reason of thei going, or wnetner me quanta *>a right or wrong, but their country call ed them, and that was sufficient. The speaking was fine, eloquent ani patriotic, they cheered the embryo sol diers, by telling them of our wrongs the barbarism of Germany, etc., bu they, as well as all present, would lik to have known, wherein this grea wrong, that causes our country to cal ' A AAA AA*\ r, /vl rj Z /wn VA WA/lnnae fVlACi EUr ..UVU.UUU SUlUlQia lu icuiroc v"wwrongs. and tax our people $1,000,00 ?very hour in the day, to support thes in the field.

Do ' away with all thos* exemption boards, take them in the order they were drawn and if their officers in camv> discover disability, they will recommend their discharge and they will ) get it. But if fifty to eighty, out of *| every hundred drafted are to *>e ex3 empt, because they claim they can't r. see straight, or hear the bullets sing, s that they are flatfooted and have fairti ilies who will he inconvenienced by y their son's absence, we mav never i r, get a loyal and satisfied army. In the s Confederate army there was no com plaint at the conscript act. because j all were treated alike. That is the * reason Germany has such a satisfied and efficient army, she conscripts alT, ?? rich and poor, royalty and the labort ing man alike. All must serve his e allotted time in the army. t. But'it seems the entire object of 1 this war has changed, at least in Eng0 land and America. England first f), claimed she drew the sword, fb carry a out the sacred pledge to Belgium v When the Russians changed the form e of her government, she asked Eng^ land for what reason she was carryI ing on the war now, that the Central powers had called fcr peace. She replied "to see that small nations should r have justice, and that governments should not he forced upon the weaker, e without it being acceptable to the i,' people." She forgets Ireland's wrongs 7 for a hundred years, how she has robi bed Egypt of the valley of the Nile, 1 the Boers of their country, the^jjg&aa^ t of their liberties. Tridia under the e despots heel. The way she treated 1- China, in forcing the opium trade upr on her is far worse than Spain ever >, did Cuba. r President Wilson claimed that we V were entering the war to avenge our ^ wrongs upon the high seas. Well, per* haps Germany was not justifiable in V so doing, but she was only fighting r England with her own weapon, "starv i, ing her out." She gave us fair warnr ing to stay out of a certain .one. The f President chose rather the loss of men r and ships, than to be dictated to by i Germany.

But now it i: Germany's internal government that': troubling the President and England They want the Hohenzollerns to gs I out, and the people rule. They an trying to overturn the government o *' ?? a foreign nation ot\niiy years auuvi ing. a government acceptable to a; parties and classes without a word o complaint from socialist or conserva tist, while the wLole nation, tin men in civil life, and those in tlr army, have declared for the Empero and the Empire. While Germany's franchise law: and taxing law may not be in accord ance with our views, what is it to us ' She allows men of great wealth t< ? Thi* is, a. cast o or iiiui c iuww> - they claim to prevent confiscation o the property of a few rich by th< many poor.. England gives a numbe of seats in Parliament to the churcl and admits a man to a seat whethe: he lives or owns property in the dis trict or not. if a man owns a bloel of the most valuable city property o vast parks and shooting boxes, if h< - - ? from them, lb receives . ?v/ ? pays no taxes. So a rich man may own minions 1j property, if it lies idle, he pays ni taxes, while the poor man, cultivat ing a few acres, it matters not er it is his own or rented from sornt "T-icIT nobleman, he must pay ful amount of taxes. But if that suit the people, who could remedy it i they wished, why it should be no con cern of ours to go to war about, j As I have said, if we are to fign Germany let us not lie about it an< defame her past good conduct. Don' let us put ourselves up as an objec lesson in government: -When Russia Prussia and Austria entered into < coalition, to restore to Spain, by forc< of arms, her lost colonies in Soufl America, President Monroe notifiec qh F!nrone_ tha those couiuuca ?... he had 110 objection to the govern ments of countries by European na tions, as they then existed, but anj attempt to force upon a country or ; this side of the- Atlantic, a government ; without the consent- of the peopic | would be tantamount to a declaratioi: ! of war. There has been 110 attemyl ! to interfere to this day. This is callj eci the "Monroe Doctrine." When the Cnited States were preparing to enter the war against Mexico in the in terest of Texas, England wrote tc the United States, "that it having come to the knowledge of her majesty*.5 i government that the Unied States was trying to absorb Texas for the purpose of extending her institution oJ ! slavery." If such was the case Eng> land wouldn't stand for it, and the result will be war. Calhoun was secretary of State and he replied to the I arrcgant note, by telljng England tin i I'nited States felt herself plenty abi? to take care of itself, and if it was K the interest of the people to extern slavery in the far west, so it wouh ! be. Well there was no war with En? land, she defeat d Mexico and gain Cm the independence of "Texas, and too! as indemnity billions arid quadrillion: of the finest lands in the world. Th.
