VOLUNTEER system Attacked.

Those who oppose the draft system
if they succeed would leave us in the
predicament of having gone to war
without an army. The cOmmonest intel
ligence can recognize that the volun-
teer system will not raise a sufficient
army The only way to raise an army
was to- place the service upon all the
people alike II we had relied on the
volunteer system and allowed the best
men to volunteer and go off and fight
and get killed then we would have had
no army in the field and very few good
men left at home. We had to have a
large army and the only way to get it
was by the plan adopted. All are I'M
der the same obligation to serve, the
willing and the unwilling.
The bill has ben passed and the
draft has been made and the men are
being called to our colors. The canton
ments are almost ready for their train
ing. In anticipation of their early
readiness for the field the regular ar
my has already gone to France to re-
sist Germany We have probably 75,-
00O or 100000 American soldiers in
the fight in Europe 1t would be a fine
betrayal of them and carry frantic
Joy to the kaiser if they could read
in the papers about detection in the
United States evidenced by democrat
ic congressman, voting to repeal the
whole legislative fabric designed to
maintain our defense in the war. That
mere announcement in the papers
would be equivalent to an overwholm-
ing German victory There is no such
blood as that in me, and | don't be-
lieye there is in YOU 1t would be a
beautiful collapse and beautiful
thrust at the vitals of our country
and our success in the war for my
colleagues and me to vote to repeal
that law.

Washington, Aug. 5.-Representa-
tive w. c. Adamson, in formal state
ment replying to resolutions address
ed to him by certain of his constit-
uents in opposition to the army draft
law, tells them their course, if it had
been adopted, would put the country
in the predicament OF having gone to
war without an army.
He shows that no other possible
course was open to the United States
To- face millions of men and forty
years OF preparation" on part Of Ger
many He expresses the belief that
the people of his district will stand
with the United States against the
kaiser, and realize he is better friend
than those who give them false advice
When the people who are now OPP
posing the draft study the question in
all of it's phases, he says they will be
come convinced that congress did the
only hing that would help win the
war.
Judge Adamson's Letter.
Representative Adamson's letter fol
lows:
Messrs. Sam Roberts, J. p Blanken-
ship, G. S. Matthews, g. j. Lane and
j. r. Muse, Temple, Ga.-Gentlemen:
have your favor of the 5th inst.
advising me that a mass meeting has
been held which adopted a resolution
reuestinqg me to use my influence for
the repeal of the selective draft act.
| regret exceedingly that anybody in
our district and especially that you
my friends in our home county, should
permit yourselves to be drawn into
using any such language or harboring
such sentiments.
We are in a war with the most ter
rife military power that ever was on
earth. We were forced into that war
by assaults, injuries and threats that
no selfrespectng people could en-
dure, and which no people could sub
mt to without the certainty of future
destruction. Submission to German
aggressions meant that when resis-
lance in Europe was overcome destruc
ticn would extend to the United States
I We went into the war in self-defense
after long, patient endurance.
An American ship anywhere on
til open seas is American territory.
Sinking an American ship on the open
seas and destroying American lives
were equivalent to invading and burn
ing Temple, Ga, and killing every man
woman and child insit The same prin-
ciple that would destroy our ships on
TIL seas would destroy our coast cities
ard anything else. Having taken up
arms in self-defense we knew we had
to fave millions of men and 40 years
of preparation for conquest We had
to have an army and we had to have
ii quick.
