Dixie" has been proclaimed the
most martial and the most patriotic
Of the national airs Of America.
This decision was rendered by the
chief Of the division Of music Of the
Library of Congress.
Dixie was first a minstrel song,
but the tragedy of the South has
made of it a sacred melody, more
appealing than any march that ever
sprang from the melancholy mind of
Chopin.
Dixie was composed by Daniel
Decatur Emmett, who died in 1904
It was first sung on Broadway in
New York.
Emmett was the grand son Of a
mar who fought at Cowpens. He
was also the composer of "Old Dan.
Tucker"
Dixie was the call of the South
to the North, and, for that reason.
it Is as popular in the North today
as it is in the South.
No song ever inspired a host more
than did Dixie
In the early days of the war it was
played by every Confederate band.
It was the funeral march of Pick
ett's division before they charged the
hill Of death at Gettysburg.
1t was the defiant salute that the
Cohfeaerates often sent across the
valley to the Federal soldiers, when,
in the dying hours of the Southern
Republic, they had no other hostage
than life to give to tho fortunes of
war.
Dixie" will live forever. It is the
gladstone hymn of the united nation
It is ode the to sentiment offered by the
greatest republic the world has ever
known.
The Marseillaise' sprung into
favor during the commissions of the
French revolution. It's author was
later guillotined.

Ell LAW FOR CONDUCT
OF SALOONS.
. Continued License, to Be For
feited Upon Offense Against
Stated Rules.

New Orleans, Jan. l0.-The solu-
tion of the liquor question, according
70 7. NJ. Gilmore, president of the
National Model License League. with
headquarters in Louisville, who is
here to secure a local delegation to
the convention that the league will
hold Feb. 3 and 4, in st. Louis, is to
be found in a law providing for a
continuing license instead of license
by the year, and providing also for
such penalties as will make the Law
automatic.
What the press, as well as the
majority Of the better element in the
United States Desires" said Mr.. Gil
more Tuesday, is obedience to the
laws, not only by the individual,
whether he be a saloonkeeper or not,
but also by the corporations as well.
The members Of the league believe
that the law proposed by the league
would have such a result with reia-
tion to the liquor business
WHAT MODEL Law PROVIDES.
Mr.. Gilmore then explained that
the law referred to, some Of the
features of which are already en-
bodied in the Gay-Shattuck law, con-
templates the granting Of a license,
without limit of term, so long as the
possessor of it does not violate the
law. Among the conditions upon
which it would be granted would be
certain character qualifications, one
being that no one ever convicted in
any State could secure a license, and
also the condition that there should
be only one saloon to every 500 popu-
lation. For tie first ofense the pen
atty would be suspension for 30 days.
The second offense would be perma-
nent cancellation Of the license. Mr..
Gilmore said that a license Of this
kind would put the saloon on the
same plane as it occupies in Europe.
1T would also eliminate the politi-
cal feature Of the saloon" Mr.. Gil
more added. Under the one-year Ii
cense system, the retail liquor dealer
is made the tool Of the political boss.
Under the continuing license be would
be free to conduct his business just
as the druggist. The system is al
ready in operation in Michigan, Com
neeticut, and with a slight change, in
Iowa.

Three Great Songs
,1NNNNRNRNN OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES

catch on the Rhine" is less than
one hundred years old. Indeed, we
think it was composed about 1910,
by Sehneckenburger, whose home was
near Ratisbon.
It was a plea for a united Germany.
It was written near the spot where
Napoleon, by an imperial order, COM
manded that the Holy Roman Empire,
which had existed uninterruptedly
since the days of Caesar, should be
no more.
The Hapsburgs in Austria ceased
to be the Emperors Of Rome, and
were forced to take titles as emper-
ors of Austria and Hungary.
And, this song so drew the Ger
mans together that, thirty years af--
forwards in the palace of Versailles,
the empire of Germany was declared
to be a living thing, and Wilhelm,
in the presence Of Bismark and Won
Moltke, within cannon shot Of the
tomb Of Napoleon, was crowned en-
peror.
Napoleon said Providence was on
the side of the heaviest artillery,
which was his way of saying that
the heaviest artillery won battles,
but all the guns of all the captains
of men could not win wars unless
there was sentiment as well as men
behind those guns.
Dixie" helped to sustain the Con-
federacy in it's last hours.
Dixie" inspired many a Southern
boy to toss away his life as lightly as
the wind throws to earth a leaf from
a dying rose.
THE Marseillaise" is the inspira
ton for liberty, equality and frater-
nifty.
The great German poem has been,
and will be forever, a call to all mem
bers Of the Teutonie race to stand
up valiantly for the Fatherland.
These three are the worlds greatest

going, and | had such q time stretch

churches as well as theatres, for the
saving of a mans soul is certainly
more important than his amusement
at the theatres. Smith may have
had such an experience that he will
not go to church again.
