THE NATIONAL GUARD

When we have a National Guard of
sufficient strength, well armed ana
equipped for service, disciplined, ac-
customed to use their weapons and TO
act together, instructed in the rudi-
ments, at least, of field service, in such
| a condition that few weeks service
in the camp and field will convert them
| into respectable soldiers, we shall have
force not only capable Of crushing
out, in its beginning, any riot or inter
val disturbance, but also of so
promptly and efficiently supporting
our regular army that none Of our
neighbors will be likely to seek quar-
rel with us nor will any remote power
dream for a moment of endeayoring
to effect a landing upon our shores.
While our nation does not believe in
a large standing army, when we are at
peace, yet it is absolutely necessary
and essential to have a good and ell
cient National Guard throughout the
Union. All the states should treat the
, National Guard with more considera
!. ton than they do.
There are many in this country who
y have an idea that the National GuarC
- is unnecessary and expensive, and WHIT
!, make a great ado and cry of econom.
, every time a few dollars are appro
y priated for the maintenance Of tn
4 militia organization.
. Pennsylvania and New York, Tn
two most popular states of the Union
!, after years Of experience, have com
:. to the conclusion that it is letter t
y, spend a small sum of money on Tn
:, National Guard than TO pay it out &c
uuelling riots, where blood is shed an
: property destroyed. We can do n
~ better than to profit by their exper
- ence. and there is the question agai
% of national prudence.
~ 1t is an old saying, but true on
10 sin time Of peace prepare for war
but if prepared for war we have mo
l., chance of having a longer time
no peace.
% The citizen soldier is no expense
y, the state or to the general COVER
nn ment, excepting for his arms, equl
Va ments. uniform and armory rent, al
~. a very meagre allowance when he
~ ordered into camp. This is We
~ small amount for the service the sta
IT, receives in return.
- A Young man enlists for three yea
in the National Guard, and he "
20 nay into the company fund for du
~, fines and assessments more than
~ receives from the state during
term of enlistment, besides a gre
w. amount of hard labor, subject to
W. called out at any time, with chan
~ of losing his position, which OF
md results.
INV There is seldom sufficient warra
-" however, for an American citizen
l i,' business man to discharge his
.at plove because he has been called
atoI to do service for the state.
The time will come when the
pc tional Guard will be called upon to
a-5 a very important part in the histor
