Early, the Leper.

Two experts have now pronounced John
Early to be leper and a third, to whom
the sufferer himself has appealed, is with
holding his report pending more exhaust
i've tests and examinations. Even IL he
should declare against the official diagno-
sis DR.. Ehlers' positive identification of
the disease would stand as sufficient war
rant for the unfortunate mans isolation
until some marked change occurs in his
condition for the better. II that is possi-
BILE. 1t Is desirable, however, that there
should be a complete clearance OF doubt
on the subject. in order that no question
may remain in the public mind regarding
the necessity of Earlys exile from
social intercourse. A perfect agreement
by the experts would probably convince
the patient himself that he Is afflicted
and induce him to surrender to the treat
ment which for some months he has re.
fused to receive. leading to the alleviatior
Of his symptoms, perhaps to the retardine
OF the disease and possibly even, DR.. En-
lers says. to his cure.
Early's case has strongly appealed tc
public sympathy. An intelligent, refined
man, he contracted the disease In the
country's service. He has borne himself
bravely and in the main sensibly, his in
sistence upon his theory that he is not
leprous being a natural expression oi
hope He has assisted the health author
tiles in their efforts to safeguard against
n spread OF the disease and has earned
the gratitude of the community for the
ddelity with which he obeys the regula.

The White House Concerts.

Protests against the discontinuance OF
the Marine Band concerts at the White
House on Saturday afternoons in summer
continue to be voiced in respectful terms.
the people of Washington deploring and
regarding as a needless innovation de-
structive OF one of the most interesting
and wholesome of the capitals social in
stitutions the change to Potomac drive.
1t is to be doubted whether the President
realized when he signed the order for the
sea sons band assignments how traditional
the Saturday White House programs have
become and how greatly the change would
affect the people, else he would surely not
have deprived them of their highly priced
oportunity to visit the White House
grounds weekly and listen there to good
music.
| There is no public dissent from the plan
| to conduct concerts on the drive. It is
recognized that the Potomac Park affords
an excellent opportunity for such gather
| ings of carriage folk and that ii is i'm
| portant to draw people to this newly es-
| tablshed reservation by some special at
traction. But this could be accomplished
| without breaking the custom of Saturday
concerts at the White House, inasmuch as
the band is to be assigned three days In
| the week to park concert work. AS The
/ Star has heretofore suggested, the addi-
| tional day could be devoted to the drive
program. leaving the Capitol and White
House assignments as in the past.
One of the protestants in writing to The
Star on this subject noted the fact that
during the greater part of the summer
most of the people who are equipped fol
| convenient attendance upon the drive con-
certs will be out Of Washington. So far
as the special class for whom these pro-
grams have been arranged are concerned

tions designed to isolate him. The pitt
full plight of his wife and child SO strong
ly appealed to the people OF Washington
that a considerable fund was placed at
Mrs. Early's disposal for the provision of
necessities, while a pension has been
granted to him which removes the fami-
ly from want. Thus the situation has
been rendered as easy as possible with
out danger to others. Whatever commls-
Grafton is felt for these people, it is to be
remembered that their plight might nave
been much worse, 5 had Early's condition
developed and been discovered In some
other community. In view of the barDa-
rous treatment Of the wretched syrian
who few years ago was shunted pack
and forth in freight car between west
Virginia and Maryland. the management
OF Early's case by the District authorities
has been most enlightened and humane
The Capital city has pointed the way 10
the proper handling of leprosy when 1t
occurs in sporadic instances. but at the
same time it is hoped that this case Will
emphasize the need of a national lepro-
sarium conducted scientifically and with
kindly consideration for the sensibilities
and social ties of the sufferers, and lead
promptly to action by Congress to this
end.
1t is possible that Early may serve a
valuable purpose through the study OF
his case by the men who are seeking a
solution of the mystery which has en-
veloped this disease. If anything can be
added to the store of knowledge concern
ing leprosy in consequence of the oppor-
tunity thus afforded it will not have been
in vain that this brave man found his
way to Washington and was here dis
covered to be "unclean.'

The Georgia Strike.
From the Philadelphia Ledger.


The strike of the engineers upon the
Georgia railroad is altogether OUTSIDE
the ordinary range of industrial troubles
and represents condition to which the
ordinary rules Of economic justice do not
apply 1t is the more disturbing because
the striking engineers not only are sus-
tanned by their union. but apparently are
sustained by the public opinion Of the
yicinage They will not run their en-
gines with negro firemen. and until the
railroad company shall replace all the
negro firemen with white men no trains
shall be moved. The southern railroads
nave had many difficulties to overcome
but this persistent race prejudice is the
most perplexing. The unfortunate negroes
in Georgia are denounced for their sup
nosed laziness. When they find work to
do, for which they are capable. white
prejudice forbids their employment. There
is no reason why they should not make
good firemen, and there is n very vel
defined complaint that they do not. The
complaint seems to be solely against the
one thing that they cannot change, their
color

Arithmetics and Celebrities.
Ii Denver yesterday:

The Rev. Judson Swift perpetrated
the first joke Of this session OF
the Presbyterian General Assembly
when in presenting the report OF
the tract society he urged that a supply
of arithmetics be sent to Uganda at once
in order that the natives may correctly
count the number of animals killed by
Roosevelt. The assembly approved his
plan.''
But this would be unfair to the Ugan.
dams. 1t would give them a false start
on a very important line of true civili-
cation. Neither the fish basket nor the
game bag of a celebrity is subject t.
the rule Of three. The reasonable public
does not expect. and has no right to ex-
pect. In any such case what are called
the facts. Accuracy must yield to po-
Nteness.

Mecklenburging American History

Mecklenburging American History.
From the Springfield Republican.
The Mecklenburg declaration of inde-
pendence, which President Taft has now
helped to celebrate and to dignity re-
mains in the embttered field of historical
controversy, notwithstanding the presence
in an official capacity, of the nations
chief. executive at the annual ceremonies
The assertion that Mecklenburg county
N. c., declared it's unqualified independ
ence OF King George III and his parlia.
ment May 20. 1875. might be true: but
even IL it were, the significance of the &C,
seems susceptible of a ludicrous exagger-
ation If the three tailors of Tooley
street had declared their independence q
his majesty's government. the shock tc
the British empire must have been no less
profound than a similar manifesto by an
isolated county in an American colony
1t seems unnecessary to say that it was
the joint declaration of independence by
all the colonies that made the independ-
ence movement reality. A county or 9
township, here and Ohere might have an
ticipated the Philadelphia convention, but
the course OF history would not have been
changed had there been no Fourth OF
