These occasions have not lacked in cere-

individual travelling in quasi private capac-

though the personality of president has

1t is pleasant, therefore, to record two
brilliant instances of the meeting of two great
presidents OF American republics arranged
an affair of state and carried out with all the
pageantry for which the scenes were well
fitted. Reference is made to the visit paid to
the president of Brazil by the president of the
Argentine Republic in August. 1899, and to the
return visit paid to the president of the Argen-

consequences and undoubtedly the sympathetic

Central America probably leads in the Jium-
ber of cases when presidents have grasped
one another by the hand and discussed among
themselves by oral communication, affairs and
policies they were elected to guard. 1t is not
a long journey from one capital to another,
and between contiguous seaports the distance
is SO short that informal meetings are easy of
accomplishment. The president of Salvador
and the president of Guatemala have more
than once exchanged personal greetings. In
fact. Gen Rufino Barrios while chief execu-
tive of Guatemala, was an attentive host, for
the presidents of Costa Rica and Of Honduras.

presidents of Costa Rica and OF Nicaragua

many similar meetings will be arranged in the
future for the benefit of this Central American
confraternity.
With the growing demand for mutual un-
derstanding and the absence of all that dan

of European rulers outside the confines OF
their own nations, these International visits

THE COUNTY FAIR.


The old-time county fair was an
institution of merit in so far as it
furnished wholesome amusement and
bred a spirit of friendly rivalry
among farmers and housewives. But
1t had one blemish and that brought
it into public disfavor and for a
time, threatened to cause its aban-
donment altogether. Too much toler-
ance was shown to the lawless ele-
ment. Licenses weie granted too
freely to gamblers and the. owners of
swindling devices. Too little atten.
tion was given to driving off the
pickpockets and confidence men,

None of the bad features above
mentioned will be observed at the

Cook found it and Peary followed,
but Peary is making the most noise
and getting the most money out Of
it. He is also making very large
fool of himself by calling Cook a

who makes the most noise is entitled
