was despotism in its worst form and a monstrous wrong against humanity in the interest of Wall Street's chosen few. It said. 'Do not submit to
intimidation, but in form at least confined itself to peaceful measures such as a petition for the repeal of the act. The other and later printed
side of the sheet was headed 'Assert Your Rights. It stated reasons for alleging that any one violated the Constitution when he refused to
recognize your right to assert your opposition to the draft, and went on. If you do not assert and support your rights, you are helping to deny
or disparage rights which it is the solemn duty of all citizens and residents of the United States to retain. It described the arguments on the
other side as coming from cunning politicians and a mercenary capitalist press, and even silent consent to the conscription law as helping to
support an infamous conspiracy.
