on Tuesday next by stating that enrolling
officers will be present to take their names
t1r the draft.
Sir Forcible Feeble never did more
foolish act than this. Do not the Irish read?
Are they not as well informed as to the
draft as the Neus man! Iowa is nearly
5000 ahead Of this draft, and enlistments
are going on with great rapidity. In case
of another "call," Iowa will have her quota
full before the enrolment could be compile

So, brother Democrats, if you are emit.
tied to vote, fear neither man nor devil, but
come up and put your seal Of condemnation
upon party whose organ would thus at.
tempt to brighten you from ballot in de.
fence Of your rights. Do not neglect it.
