 League to Enforce Law

Hamilton, May 15.-t -tSpecia). a
 ma ss meeting called on only weeks notice, but which packed the court house to the doors. the citizens of Marion county organized home de- fense league, and assumed for them selves the vigorous enforcement of all needful measures to assist in the en- forcement of the military and other laws of the United States in Marion county for the duration of the war. Sons of Federal and Confederate Vet erans of the late war and members of the democratic ana republican par ties alike joined in perfecting the organization, of which William B. Ford was elected permanent presi- dent and V. R. White as permanent secretary. A list of persons listeu by the local board as slackers was publicly read and a resolution passed giving such persons two weeks to re- port for duty, after which immediate and active steps would be taken to run every one of them down. Strong speeches were made by Judge Mack Fearce, William E. Ford. Ernest B
 Fite and Judge c. F. Lunsford
 Marion county has no more than the usual number of military evaders but the people of the county have resolved to not ask or. expect the mill itary authorities to round these up and have taken the administration of the law into their own hands and the perfecting of this organization was the first step toward that end.
