There Against Soldier Enlistment.
MEANWHILE. Pa. Sept. 13-Consderable In
dignation is felt by Meadvllle citizens over the
stories printed recently as to anti-imperialsm
influence here preventing the enlistment
OF soldiers. Meadville and Crawford coun-
ty furnished 4 full quota and mora
for the Civil War. For the Spanish War there
were Ave times as many men willing to vol-
unteer as were needed. There Is no anti
imperlalist league here. but about as many
antrim perialists in proportion in both
parties as found elsewhere. There
have never been anti-imperialist meetings
held here. There never was a recruiting
officer mobbed and no effort was made to
dissuade prospective volunteers beyond such
as is made anywhere by relatives. Pri-
vate Baldwin OF the Second Artillery was hero
nine days partly disabled with q lame foot all
OF the time. The recruiting station was not
advertised except that the local newspapers
mentioned its opening. Six applicants out Of
seventeen passed the examination. one of
whom was a on-resident and left the State.
Four decided not to enlist. and ofthese one was
urged by family and friends not to do so.
as he was needed at home. The one who did
enlist was actually advised to do so by
member OF the faculty OF the Unitarian
Theological School which the false newspaper
stories have designated as the centre OF anti.
imperialist influence There IL really no
ground for the stories at all and they are not
regarded as worth noticing here except In so
far as they reflect on the patriotism OF the
locality.
