HAS FRIENDSHIP VANISHED !?
The Duluth Star argues that the
art of friendship is dying out and
that the world, or rather its human
creatures, is becoming cruel and
selfish. ssl=> ss
The friendship of /. the ancients
was very exacting. In modern times
we would look a long time for such
mutual regard as that of Damon. and
Pythias. j. ~ .&~ -
Friendship in our wider days COW
ers wider. area, but. as in the case
of all extensive developments it has
lost intensiveness. III. q. .-.....,. D..
Instead of friendships we have
visiting lists. Not those whom we
would love, but those whom we
would propitiate, we invite to din
ner. Those who would propitiate
us invite us in turn and permit us
to eat their food and air our views.
We live, alas! in the suburbs of
each others hearts.
The man without friends can &C
complish very little in this world.
Depending on his own strength alone
his: mightiest endeavors are as moth
ing. At harvest time he gathers moth
ing but leaves. - s... -. i.
But the man with Hfriends-strong
friends, true friends and loyal
friends-who have confidence in his
integrity and ability to do things has
great power. When he leads they
will follow him, and, all working to-
gether unitedly bring victory This is
the reason some men achieve great
success with moderate abilities, and
their more brilliant competitors fall
short.
This is true in every business and
profession. It does not matter so
much whether man has enemies
or not as that he has true friends
that will stand BY him and never
desert him. r. : me-. -.
To have loyal friends is worth all
else. To have friends who can be

representative Of the President of the
United States. whose welcome and whose
good wishes I am commissioned to con-
vey to you this morning. In the name

ctate not only the interest. but the spirit
of cordial good will which their govern

Secretary Cortelyou Refers Early
Case for Opinion.

The question OF the jurisdiction OF the
Treasury Department in the case OF John
r. Early, the leper. who is in isolation in
this city, has been referred by Secretary
Cortelyou to the solicitor Of the Treasury
for an opinion.
District officials are anxious to transport
Mr.. Early to North Carolina. his home,
but the officials OF that state have re-
fused to accept him and the corporation
counsel Of the District holds that the
North Carolina authorities cannot be
forced by the District TO receive the man.
The question to be decided is whether
the Secretary of the Treasury has power
under the act of 1893 to make regulations
under which Early can be deported, and
to govern his permanent care. The mat
ter was referred TO Secretary Cortelyou by
the Commissioners.
