AZ the subject Of CONSUMPTION now occupies
mach attention., permit Inc to call the attention
of those interested in il, to the following OK
tract from 4 letter written by Thomas jefferson
to Thomas Cooper, TO be found in the 6!b
Volume OF .Jefcrson's works, page S79.
1t will be seen that Mr.. Jefferson prefers
compulsory service to asystem |" too i%nuulgent
to the Incidence Of the people"
He is comparing the condition Of Great
Britain and tho United States:
"But il is said they posseas the means OF
defence and that NO do not. How so? Are
We not men? Yes; but our men are so happy
a, home that they will not hire themselves 10

potent, was proposed to Congress- in 1905, and
sn subsequently,; and on the last trial was los',
believe, by II single vote only. Had it prevailed,
what has now happened would not have hap

should have possessed theirs in Montreal and
