able crowd. Despite these attrac-
tions and the fact that the stores
were all open, thus preventing the
attendance of any clerks, there
were about thirty men present at
the meeting of the Volunteer Re

A civil organization was formed
with Col. j. j. Fitzgorrell, of the
q. A. r., as chairman and Stacy
Myers, secretary. On motion of
Herbert w. Burdett this organiza-
ton was made permanent until
recognition of the company by the
state or national authorities.

appealed to ''the peoples voice,
the public press, the only vehicle
for reaching the nation instantan-
eously," to further the movement.
A form of enlistment blanks, as
already published daily in The
Tribune, accompanied the appeal.
After some brief discussion in
which Messrs. John L. Davis,
