MEN OF THE HOUR.

People of other nations rarely come into contact with the common people
 in this country. What they know about us and our institutions is gained largely from travellers abroad, men who have business relations with them and the government of the United States. The manner in which our government officials meet their op- portunities for peace and interna- tional fairness means much to us as common people.
 We can increase our trade relations in proportion to the fair and just man ner in which we strive to do this. If our exporters and importers have at heart the interest of the nation that gives them this privilege, and if they desire to render economical service to society as we'll as increase their own profits, then they will advance the interests of the people. If they selfshly desire monopoly with a view of building their own business at the expense of the people as some have done in the past, then they will be detriment to the people of this country.

THE ONLY SONG THAT
 ALWAYS GETS APPLAUSE

It is natural that the song of "Dixie" should be popular in the South, but in the North also it gains applause over any other air. In the Woman's Home Companion for March a writer says:
 "At a recent exhibition of the 'Clansman' in Los Angeles people cheered to the echo while the orches- tra played Dixie, and those same people sat absolutely still while the orchestra played America The Star Spangled Banner and Yankee Doo- |dle,' those dear old songs that stirred the soul of my father, who fought for his country in the Civil War, and my brother, who fought in the Spanish American War. l do not object to Dixie love il myself. But Dixie is decidedly Southern and not Ma tional."
