The nobility or rather the old nobility Of Sweden aA.
present time a mere name.
OF the three thousand noble families formerly inscribed
on the records there are but abOu twelve hundrd

retain anything like their ancient importance and wealth

Sweden has consequently increased in proportion with tho
prosperity Of the middle classes The ArsSA edited By
Olof Daln was the fret Swedish journal II spperedn

England Able and spirited. it both encouraged aud in

sren and Bangren in ms succeeded this Journal and
filed with matter equally amusing as suggestive But
the daily press had neither any extraordinary power mo-
political influence in Sweden until the desire for increased
knowledge gradually built up what might justly be called
young Sweden which brought about literary discussion
that soon naturally took political tinge. In 1870 Tao
couyitr The OIscrrcy, and new Argus, met with con
siderable success while eight nine years later Gusrc

Ofeourse one of the first questions dscussedby theYw
was the inefficient system of representation but nothing
satisfactory was done In 1928 however the wishes Otis
people Of Sweden were loudly expressed both in theJr
nails IL emsoves and in the Diet, and when the political
crisis Of 1890 came the Government discovered that ths
was not only party publicly expressing bx
in fact veritabe opposition.
