The Views OF President Lincoln on the
DRAFT and State Quotas.

The Views OF President Lincoln on the
Draft and state Quotas.
So numerous have been the complaints
that bave reached the President concern
ing the quotas assigned, that he found it
necessary personally to take pains to ex-
anime the formula adopted by the Provost
Marshal General for the oslculation and
distribution Of the quotas of the different
States. The conclusion which he reached
was, that no one could doubt its fairness or
equity. In addition to this personal e1-
rminstiop, for the purpose Of satisfying the
minds of all parties, he had designated q
board of officers to inquire into the system
and report their conclusions.
The Board appointed by Mr.. Lincoln,
having made their examinations, reported
to Mr.. Lincoln the method upon which
the calculations we're based, and conclude
in these words:
Such we find 10 be the rule adopted BY
| the Provost Marshal General. The rule is
in conformity with the requirements of the
laws of Congress, and is just and equitable
We have carefully examined and proved
the work done under this rule by the Prov
ost Marshal General, and fnd that it has
been done with fairness. We file in the
Provost Marshal Generals office our calcu.
lstion Of the quota of each and every dis
trict indorsed by US as correct, -a
In letter to the Governor of New York
Mr.. Lincoln thus states the case in regard
to the two States of New Hampshire and
Vermont, 8 statement applying equally well
to other States:
