The principal shoemakcrs III this
city have been conscri Ned and or.
,iered to camps. This is owing +"
tn. exhorbitant prices asked for
work. In conversation with one OF
those persons, he informed lis that he
was prepared to produce evidence
that he had not charged more than
as per cent, as the exemption law
cnioins, and that despite this, hear
ing was refused him. We do>not
profess to have any knowledge Of the
facts in these cases, yet, while we
think the law should be strictly en-
forced, we would like TO see justice
meted out to all persons. W." appre-
ciate the unccasing efforts made by
our enrolling officer, and sustain him
in his arduous task. and We would
say to fault finders that in pursuing
the course he does, the enrolling
officer, SIMPLY carries cut 'he ie''e'
of the law. The exemption law Is
plain and admits of but one con
struction, which, when violated OIL
not complied with. subjects persons
to be placed immediately i'll the ser
vice. When Congress passed the
Exemption bill, they intended thai
the persons SO exempted would prove
a benefit to the community in which
they resided the moment, then, tina
they estortion on the public, they ar
no longer useful or essential, and d'
more harm than good. Every CON
mon-sense man ought to understand
this, and shape his course accord
ingly.
