drafted, who have never reported, are al
lowed TO pass back and forth on our streets
without the most urgent measures being
taken for their arrest, those who are yet to
be drafted will have Just ground for griev-
Gus complaint. We have already had three
drafts, and over two thousand persons have
been drafted for the purpose Of filing an or
