mination . dEalt will b made In every

This number = wanted TO all the places
OF the HUNDRED men, those Of the old regi-
ments whose time e service win expire
durine the summer md autumn, and those
who from any cause are disabled or dis
CHARGED. This number win not b mere
addition 70 the force in the field. In great
part e viii b simply filing the ranks Of
those who have already done their share.
/. The quota Of Iowa. though We are NOT
informed authoritativsly what it il, win
probably b over twenty thousand. From
this number some deductions are 10 be
made, on account of present excess Of cred
its. But large portion Of it 10 to b filled
with new volunteers. To do it We must
direct AL our energies to that end. Every
sub-district must make the effort to I'll its
local quota and do it a. speedily ~ posi-
BILE. The longer effort is delayed the great
er will prove the effort necessary to &C
complish it. But each and all can do it, If
they earnestly try. Those which neglect
trying won't do 1t. M
There is one thing about this cali which it
will be well for all to bear in mind. That is
that it is made and meant to produce men.
There IL no communication or exemption Of
those duly enrolled, except by substitute
not liable to draft. Volunteers or drafted
men must fill up the bin everywhere. If
volunteers supply the quota Of the sub
district, there will be no draft. Ifvolun-
teers do not I'LL it, a draft, TO be continued
until the quota is supplied is inevitable
That is level to every mans comprehen-
sion. Every one can see what 10 to be done,
and every one is equally interested in do
ing it. When the draft does come, as it
will if the volunteers are not supplied, ev-
cry man ON the rolls will stand the same
chance, it will then be too late to obtain
substitutes, and there il no Communication.
All persons who volunteer either for
themselves or as substitutes will be emit
tied to Government bounty, ranging FROM
one to three hundred dollars, according II
they volunteer for one or three years, Q|be
paid at certain intervals as provided by
law. This will assist in inducing volun-
teering. But what will most assist Is .
unanimous public effort in that direction.
II the whole population Of our State unite
to I'LL its quota with volunteers, it will be
done. Otherwise the draft will come, and
it will be memorable. These are the facts.
We shall see what action the people viii
take. ~
: - II We may believe the telegraph
the Banks Of the east have failed to take
the nfty million loan they were asked to
cash. The ample reason appears to b
that they have not got the money. They
would takeit II Mr.. Fessenden would &C.
cspt their checks-in other words their
promises to pay, but they have not got the
ssgreenbacks'' and therefore can't furnish
them. That Il the whole story.
/ But why have Mt they got the " green
backs"? The answer to that il that thew
have loaned them al to the spectators,
the gold-gamblers, or the brokers who
do loan to them. They have been 20 ex-
cessively anxious to convert deposits into
discounts, and have succeeded 20 well ct il.
that now when the comparatively small
sum Of my millions - asked, they can't
supply It? All Of which indicates the alb
surdity Of relying for money upon those
whose sole business it il to make divi-
dends, and who are utterly reckless q to
al other results - that one be accomplish
ed. Corporations which have 90 eagerly
made themselves parties to the increase 81
prices, who are, in fact, responsible for Ill
their excess above the natural prices q
indicated BY demand and supply, are NOT
likely to make any patriotic sacrifices. Il
y needless to 30 - them. The Govern.
ment should rely upon the people. Fit
viii do that al the time, there win be no
lack ofmeana. The banks have MT mt tn
sreenbecks". The people have. Go. to
the people and get them.
Il Democracy" according to the con-
perhsad assertion, "means peace" how
happens It that i'll gave " war? Every ONE
Of the States in rebellion voted for a Demo.
cratic president, just before they undertook
secession. Every one Of their rovarnc-.
professed to b Democrats, their leo;.l..

crats," all the leaders OF the secess;or
movement were "Democrats." and thev
began the movement while man who nro.
fessed to be Democrat was President
democracy is peace, !" how did it chance
that we have war on hands, Ian.t Il ain.
eular that the party which opened the most
nidtous war Of all time should have the inn.

are IN favor Of giving them all thew de.
