Politics is queer thing. If you
will notice it makes enemies of the
best of friends, and friends of the
worst of enemies. It should not be
carried so far as to divide friendship.
Friendship in any direction is far bet
ter, far greater, than wealth. We
would much rather have the friend
ship Of our fellow men than to have
the wealth of the entire country. Oh
course we are not all constituted
{ alike, if we were it would be a queer
country. Our advise to all, especial
ly those engaged in politics is, to re
tain the friendship of your friends at
, all hazard. You may not need them
: to-day, or tomorrow, but a day
| might come when you might need
5 every friend that you can call to your
asssstance.-Ex.
