the government put to the credit of
each state every man 1t now has In

war volunteer to the regular army.
Computation Method.
Placing on the debit side of the led
ger the national army Of 100000, the
entire National Guard at war strength
and the number of war volunteers
needed on April last, to bring the
regulars up to the war strength, the
grand total was apportioned according
to population.
This gave gross quota for each
ctoto from, xuY,tct, G, v,af ,uoto x,oo cop,
puted by checking off the number Of
National Guardsmen available for fed
eral service and the number of men
given by the state to the regular army
since April /.
The apportionment was made on the
basis Of an estimated grand total for
the United States and Its possessions
of 105, 1896, 056 inhabitants.
This is paper estimate, computed
from registration returns, which comes
within the law requiring distribution
Of quotas by population, but which
equalizes in great measure the bur-
den that is to fall upon the 1850 ex.
emption districts.
Total Of 1,f52,985.
Each will furnish under this appor-
tionment the men its total registration
would indicate as fair proportion,
rather than the number the actual pop
ulation of the district would indicate.
The total of these gross quotas is l.
152,9S5 men.
Credit is given to the various states
for total of 465,9S5 voluntary enlist
ments In the National Guard and reg
ulars, making the total net quota for
all states 8S7,000 men.
Illinois, which was the FIRST big state
to fill its quota for the regular army,
reduced its gross quota of 1904 to
51,6J3.
