He waved one arm comprehensively at the line of State reports, revised statutes, prison regulations, etc., the while he put the money in his pocket and Steger pretended to look. "A good idea, I think, Sheriff. Very good, indeed. So you think if Mr. Cowperwood gets around here very early Monday morning, say eight or eight-thirty, that it will be all right?"
"Compulsory conscripts," I continued. "Where, as I was going to say, does the Militia come in?" "As I have said for the men who can't afford volunteering.
