IMPOSITION TO NATIONAL GUARD ENLISTMENT

cTa HE declaration by the convention Of operative potters at
Atlantic City this week against enlistment of workingmen in
the National Guard is one of those ebullitions of socialism
that are in evidence occasionally in this country. The origin of this
sentiment is entirely foreign to America. The feeling is an imported
one, and it is an evidence of ignorance of American institutions.
Ailitarism is the bane of Europe. In Germany, Italy, France and
Austria every peasant carries a soldier on his back. Need there
be wonder that the immigrant workingman comes here full of hatred
of the military uniform and that he confounds the ensgns of the
National Guard, belonging to civic life, with those of a militarism he
abhors? Seyen-eighths of the National Guard are workingmen and
wage-earners, and at least the same proportion of the officers come
from the ranks. AS long as the National Guard is of the people it
win belong to the people. To make a class institution of the Ma
tional Guard by the withdrawal of wage-earners would not benefit
labor, and it would do infinite harm to the social structure. But
the American workingman is not possessed with these imported
prejudices- He knows his country, he knows the National Guard,
and he will continue to qualify himself to be a defender of his coun
try in the event of a great national emergency.
