Espeak the praises of police force
but who deny the practical benefit
of a State Guard.
/ | admit the necessity and impor-
tance of the police. I am never
more grateful or prouder of my
country, than when / lie in nv bed
at night and listen to the monoto-
nous tramp, tramp, tramp, of the
night; ;watchman, and feel that the
law-faithful as a mother-stan
by my bedside with her pure hands
raised in benediction; but when the
Sheriff is overpoN cred and erimin-
ais are set free; when the police, and
all municipal authorities are out
numbered and flee for their lives.
what will you do?
Who will stop the wrong-doers,
or lead a band of citizens against
them? Where is your organization,
your speedy action, your ldaqul lead
er?
The State Guard, as an organiza-
ton, Is an answer to. all the ques-
tions, and meets the need of the
hour. A few such citizen soldiers
are like bones in the human body
they give soidity and stability
to our entire State system.
five turn our thoughts to the re-
lation our State Guard bears to the
National Government, we see, at
glance, that it is very important
one. Not only is it admirably suit
ed to the extraordinary crises in
State history, but in greater juno
lures, it forms the nucleus of greater
forces. It keeps alive the military
spirit and taste, the rudiments of
wholesome discipline, and the ex-
ample of organization.
! A community having one conipa-
ny, could, on sudden call, quickly
form others after the model. But
says one: "Peace is what we want"
/ reply that as human nature now
is, the best security for the peace is
the known ability and spirit of that
nation to fight if invaded. The
American idea is that the true
strength and defence of nation $50
far as military power is concerned)
must be in a citizen soLdiery as
against standing armies, now the
curse and the burden of SO many
