THE RUBICON HAS BEEN
 CROSSED.

The great day in American his
 tory which deeply concerned st
 many of our young men ant
 their kinsfolk has slipped by, as
 in the process of time, all things
 will. Last Friday the great
 dra wing for army. men came of
 at Washington, and those sub
 ject to be called for examination
 have been selected In a few
 more days the suspense will be
 over, and the great, and sure to
 be victorious, American army
 will be made up. While there
 was, and still is, objection to
 the selective draft method of se-
 curing men for military service,
 nevertheless, 1t has its merit.
 by it, the most fit can be had,
 and by 1t the patriotic man W ho
 wishes to fight for his country
 has the opportunity of doing so,
 and the one who would shirk
 this responsibility, and live in
 ease and comfort at home, while
 the true patriot was barring his
 breast to ball and shell on the
 bloody field, is forced to do his
 duty. It has an advantage in
 another respect: It is a quicker and, by tar, a more economic
 way of raising big army. The justice, fairness and equity of the measure cannot be reasonably
 questioned It places its band alike on the rich, the poor, the willing and the unwilling, and forces all to join in defense of their country, on an equal foot
 ing. By this plan. thousands of young men are brought into the army who are glad to go and offer up their lives, if needs be, for their country's glory, but who refuse to volunteer because they do not wish to fight for slackers and towards who re- fuse to go. On the brave man who volunteers and goes to the front when his country calls is bestowed the admiration of all true men and women; but the one who is only willing to do his part N hen others, in the same ca egarv with him, do theirs, is not to be blamed. It Is just as much the duty of one active, able-bodied man to fight for his country and it's sacred rights as another, and this selective draft plan works to this effect. Let the young men who are chosen feel that they are honored in their manhood-feel that they are the flower and perfection of their native land. Under the se- lective draft there is opportunity for man to prove his bravery. 1t is not conscription, although closely allied to it; but there is a difference, and that difference Is as great gull stretching out bet ween. The selective draft man, when summoned. appears | for duty, ready and willing to go He offers no excuse, he makes no plea, and if found ph, >ically fit, he takes his place Tn line without a murmur. Like a man. brave and true, created Tn the image of his God, he faces the future and never looks back to bemoan his fate. The con script. on the other hand, is the one who renders every excuse possible, tenable or untenable, and appeals from one Board to another and when he finally fails. goes into the ranks, suivel ing, crineing and complaining. We are glad to know that in free America there are few, very few, of this latter class; but there are some and it IS nothing but right g. d just that they should b, driven into action, which is, indeed, canscription.
