The COnscriptiOn.

Every country on earth claims and en-
forces q right to the best services of It's citi-
zens when imperiled by foreign invasion
or domestic treason.
The Government necessarily, inevitably,
decides when, where and how those servi-
ces shall be required and rendered.
If Oaths of allegiance or naturalization
mean anything, they pledge those who take
them to render this service promptly,
cheerfully, heartily.
Naturalized and native citizens are under
equal, identical obligations in this respect;
but he who, coming among US from dis
tant country, has been admitted here to
privileges which most countries limit to
natives, or at best extend to foreigners
grudgingly and only after long probation;
ought peculiarly to realize that obligation
and respond to its demands with conspicu-
Gus alacrity.
Do you admit this right of the country to
call on you for service in her extremity,
and of her lawful Government TO decide
when, where and how the service shall be
rendered? If Yes, we need say no more of
the constitutionality, legality, and proprie-
ty of a National Conscription.
.sBut why not call on the States for what
ever force may be required?"
We answer: Calls on the States have
frequently been made, and in part respond
ed TO. Many States have utterly refused
to send a man. Several have made the
mere can . prete4t for throwing otf all ap-
