The struggle Of the Norwegian people
for constitutional government is tolerably
well known.
1t Will be remembered, too, that the Storth-
ing, or, the national parliament, has passed g
law admitting ministers to seats on It's floor, for
thee successive sessions, and that the KING IN
defiance Of constitutional requirements, has re-
fused the formal PRONUNCIATION of the law which
is necessary in order to give it effect. The Nor
wegian constitution provides that a proposal
adopted by three different StOrthings in success
ion shall become law, even If the king refuses
his sanction: this requirement has been complied
with, and the bill giving the ministers seats In
parliament is already law; the king in refusing
to formally promulgate it is guilty of very
grave constitutional offense, and is standing
upon absolutely untenable ground. In April,
by vote of fifty-fve to thirty-tw the upper
house of the Storthing decided to impeach the
ministers, and the impeachment trials will be-
gin before the supreme tribunal of Norway on
the 18th of this month. The issue Will be
awaited with deep interest; rarely in history has
such a struggle between people and its ruler
been made within the forms of law. The deter
mination of the king to make the veto power
absolute, and to push the royal prerogatiVe by
interference with the national assembly, recalls
the history of tie similar attempts of Charles l.
and James II. of England, from whose careers
the King of Norway may well draw valuable
lessons before it is too late. Republican up
rising the dethronement of Oscar, and the es-
tablishment of republic are already openly
discussed in Norway.

The pomp, display and extravaganza
of fashionable and wealthy people at the
various resorts Of pleasure every sum
mer is an evil of no small magnitude and
is annually increasing. To say moth
ing OF the many millions spent every year
by Americans ia fashionable foreign trav-
Ell, the dress parades of ladies at our
home summer resorts are something mar
velous in their CANDY, dazzling, vulgar
splendor. A newspaper correspondent
reports that he saw exhibited on dress pa
rade at Saratoga, the wife of q Philasel-
phia millionaire, in laces and silks that
were valued at $4,000, while her display
of diamonds represented value OF $751;
600, making her outfit represent cost
value of S1O5,OOO. Is there anything "a
tional II this? And yet this is not
solitary case. Numberless extravaganza
displays are to be seen every where, about
the fashionable pleasure seekers resort.
Do such follies tend to improve the char
acters and the hearts OF the participants.
or to the real elevation and refinement of
society? immortality and vice are more
likely to Turk under their glittering dis
plays Of weak ambition, than true virtue,
purity, and the real adornments OF domes-
tic and social life.

THE multiplicity Iof divorces and their
increasing numbers, are attracting no lit
tie attention. 1t is a great and CRYING
evil, and a remedy is being earnestly
sought for. The ease with which divorces
are obtained is due to lack of uniformity
in the divorce laws of the different states.
So lax are these laws, that it not unfre-
quently happens that person knavishly
obtains divorce, when the other party is
entirely ignorant of the proceeding.
There are divorce lawyers up to every spe-
cies of knavery in procuring divorces.
Laws ought to be enacted making their
conduct criminal, and punishable as such.
The divorce laws of the state of New York
are rldiculously defective. For example
it is made penitentiary offense for a per-
son against whom divorce has been OBJ
tanned, to marry again, within the state.
But the divorced party may leave the state
and marry and return to the state and no
penalty attaches. Thus the law is practi-
cally nullifed. If it were made crime
for divorced person to go out of the
state and marry, and return, it would cure
that lax feature in the laws. For the fire.

THERE are many religious seets, scatter
ed about, here and there, of whom the gen
eral public know little or nothing; who
have dogmas and practices peculiar to
themselves, but whose existence is hardly
known beyond the confines of the immedi-
ate community surrounding them. Their
tenacity of faith in their simple creeds Is
remarkable, and their sincerity is attested
by their close and answering adherence
to their professed beliefs. They live in
the world, but are not of the world. They
lead distinct, isolated lives in the midst of
society, clinging to each other and to their
own religious life with devotion that pre-
vents barrier to all dIsintegrating infu-
ences. Pennsylvania holds within her
borders several such isolated, religious
scots. The SCHwENKFELDERs, is one of
them.
Their annual Thanksgiving and memorial SER
vices were held in their oldest church, situated
in the Hosensack (Pantaloon-pocket), a beauti-
full valley on the line of Montgomery and Lee
high counties, Pa, on the Gath of September,
being the one hundred and forty-ninth anniver-
sary of the arrival of that people in this coun-
try. In the morning, after devotional exercises,
sermon was preached by Rev. George Mesch-
ter, and an historical address delivered by Rev.
VIM. s. Anders; and in the afternoon there were
addresses by Revs. Joshua Schultz and Jacob
Meschter, all in the German language, and brief
addresses in English by eZ-Gov. Hartranft and
G. Heydrick, Esq, of Franklin, Pa. The mem
bership of this church numbers about 500.
There are six ministers and six churches, all in
Montgomery, Berks and Lehigh counties. 1t is
singular fact. and one perhaps without par
allel among Christian sects in this country, that
all the ministers and almost all the members be-
long to families which have chung together since
the days of the reformation, through terrible
prosecutions in the Fatherland- SiIesia-exile
in Saxony and immigration TO and worldly pros
perity in this country, always maintaining their
faith and worship. The one hundred and fifth
eth ''Gedachtniss Tag will be appropriately OBJ
served next September.

The Agricultural Far.

Mr.. Editor. 1t is a matter perfectly APP
parent TO all that the glory Of the Agricul-
tural Society is a thing Of the past This
is TO all persons who are interested in Mont
gomery county painful reflection, for the
once popular Fairs of this Society have I'M
doubleday been Of advantage socially and
materially TO the county. Unfortunate man
agement has broken down the general inter-
est in the Society's welfare, and this, taken
together with the bad weather that gener.
ally prevails like an evil genius at the times
chosen for the Fair, promise at no distant
day TO convert our once classic Fair Grounds,
SO favored by nature and so beautifed by art,
into building sites.
Taking everything into consideration the
Rockville Fair should be one of the most
successful entertainments and one of the
most popular agricultural exhibitions in the
country. Its proximity to Washington and
Baltimore and its close position To the rail-
road; its beautiful natural shade and fine
and abundant water, and its being at the
well-known county seat of a populous and
progressive county certainly give il attrlc.
tons and advantages Inferior to none aud
far superior 10 those of any other institution
of the same nature within our knowledge.
Its want OF success Is attributable 10 the alb
sence OF intelligent, practical management,
and Ia some measure 10 the untavorable
weather that so frequently comes at the
time selected for the exhibition. The latter
is drawback that, Of course, cannot be con-
trolled, though AN earlier season would be
somewhat less likely TO be accompanied with
rain, and Ii rain should come carly in the
season, ata time set apart for the Fair, IL
would not have 80 depressing an effect as the
cold, chilly rains of a less cheerful season.
The bad management is matter measure
bly, within the control OF the friends of the
Society, for intelligent reflection brought TO
bear In this connection would produce the
same relative results that II does Ia railroad,

The Late Caleb Stabler,

Mr.. Editor Il have just returned from
"Alloway," the residence of W. p. and Mary
M. Miller, the home in which our beloved
friend, Caleb Stabler, passed the last eight
years of his life, as he often said, so happily,
and where he lately died. With your per-
mission would be glad to give expression
through your paper TO some of the pleasant
thoughts of him which the visit has called
up, for the place seems still endued with his
presence He was surrounded in this true
home with an atmosphere Of love and sym
pathy; his wants, which were always re-
markably few and simple, were anticipated,
when possible, by devoted children, or by
"children's children, that crown of old men"
his last days solaced by the untiring care
and tenderness of an only daughter, whose
hands and heart are well skilled in faithful
tendance upon the aged, and between whom
and an idolized father there existed bond
that surely cannot be broken by death, but
which must remain infinite and eternal as is
that Heavenly Parent who Himself fills the
fountains of our human affections.
Caleb Stabler was buried by the side Of
his wife, in u part Of the grounds reserved
by the family for this purpose, and he was
followed to his last earthly resting place by
more than four hundred people, all seeming,
lTOfu TIC SOleIln sJillIltS5 tiltt ptTNducu tllc
large assembly, to be real mourners in a
great and universal sorrow AS was appro-
priately and feelingly said by one Of his
young and admiring friends; "His family
consisted of more than just his own kindred
every member efthe neighborhood of Sandy
Spring, young and old, looked up TO him,
with the respect and love due to n father;
his enterprise and public spirit made the
neighborhood what it is, the pride of each
one of its inhabitants, and am sure that all
unite in mourning his loss"
Caleb Stabler was "a prince among men,
his manners were courteous and refined, but
above all sincere and frank, and the exam
pie of his industry, his integrity, his enter
prise, his puulic-spirit, his temperance in all
things, the grand simplicity Of his life, the
perfectness of all his family relations, and
finally his success he leaves as his monu-
ment to us who are older and as an unfad-
ing study to the young. He has been garn-
cred with the golden grain-at the close OF
long and useful day-at the end of ripe
and rich harvest. MARX the perfect man
and behold the upright, for the end Of that
man is peace" G. ii. NJ

son that the affairs of the Society are not
managed successfully is simply because the
executive board, president and others are
not chosen for their fitness or executive
capacity, but rather from causes that do not
contemplate or involve the prosperity and
success OF the Agricultural Society. Per
sons run for the several offices, prompted
by mere fancy TO hold the positions, and
they are elected more as compliment than
as an evidence of their utility and fitness for
the duties to which they will be assigned.
No one has any pecuniary interest in the
matter and hence carelessness character
ises their action that would not be the case
If they were voting in an election for officers
who were to administer their pecuniary
interests. Though indirectly SO, it Is GER
tainly true that the prosperity of any county
institution involves the pecuniary interest
of every citizen of the county because such
institutions invite public attention and tend
TO give the county more conspicuous posi-
ton before the general public, which &C
tually enhances the value of every acre Of
land in the county by bringing the advan-
tages of the county in contact with persons
who, in many instances, would scarcely
know that such spot existed in the geog-
raphy OF the earth except through the re-
ported attractions Of well managed Fair.
In this article desire to assure the execu-
tive management of the Society that l posi-
lively do not intend any thing personal TO
them in my criticisms of the Fair do
not consider that the msmanagement of the
interests of the Agricultural Society is an
evidence Of personal incapacity on the part
of the gentlemen constituting the manage
ment, for on the contrary am aware that
their general positions indicate unmistak-
ably that they are intelligent gentlemen
But propose to show later that they have
allowed circumstances to control them TO
do things that were injudicious, inexpedient
and productive Of unfavorable results, and
that the few attractions the Fair this year
did possess were in but slight measure at
tributable to the good judgment and intel.
ligent reflection OF the controlling spirits of
the Society. MONTGOMERY.

PROGRESS OF THE SOUTH

The history Of the past few years in the
South has been record of steady and swift
advance, as is concusively shown in the
admirable issue of the New Orleans Times
Democrat for October 20. On that day the
paper mentioned published interviews with
GLIDING the border State of Kentucky, but
excluding Missouri, Maryland and Della
ware. Comparing the assessed valuation Of
these States in 1879 with that in 1888 it is
seen that the increase in four years amounted
to $640 ,707,028. This is fine showing, and
1t will be of interest to go behind the Times
Democrats figures and ascertain for ourselves
how this increase is distributed throughout
the South.
In 1879 Kentucky was assessed as the rich
est Southern State, Virginia came second,
and Texas was third. Georgia, Tennessee,
Louisiana and North Carolina were respec-
lively fourth, fifth, sixth and seventh, as
they are now South Carolina ranked eighth
and Alabama, Mississippi, Arkansas, and
Florida brought up the rear in the order
given. That was four years ago. Mark the
change. Texas is now first, having added
to her wealth in that time $33, 500 900 more
than all the property in North Carolina is
worth, $103, 100000 more than would buy
the State of South Carolina, 49,, O00, 900
more than the Louisianians value their
State and its seaport at, and more than four
times the entire valuation of Florida. AS
compared with herself she has gained 1910
per cent. Kentucky is now second, and
Virginia third. South Carolina is the only
State that has actually lost. She has fallen
from the eighth to the tenth place on the
list, not, as in the case of Kentucky and
Virginia, in consequence Of the bounding
prosperity of a sister State, but because of
an actual depreciation in values, she being
| 169 per cent. poorer than she was four years
ago.
A glance at the ratio of development
will be interesting. This list 10 headed by
Florida with 0001 per cent increase in
values Texas comes next, and is followed
by the other States in order given: Ar
kansas, Georgia, Alabama, North Carolina,
Louisiana, Mississippi, Kentucky, Tennes-
see and Virginia.
The figures relating to cotton-spinning
show an increase of so per cent. Besides
this the cotton crop has wonderfully in
creased, the railway mileage has been great
ly extended, and industries too numerous to
mention have been developed. 1t is note
worthy that the great growth of these States
in wealth has been the result of native labor,
comparatively few foreigners having settled
within their borders, while native Amer-
cans have flocked into them from all parts

DEATHS.
In Memoriam.

40 @-AOAAASA AAAus
AT her late residence, near Knowles depot,
In Silver Spring Parish, Montgomery coun.
ty, Md, on Monday evening, October Goth,
1888, after quite long illness patiently
borne, LURANA HIGGINs, relict of the late
George Knowles, quietly passed away from
US, and we confidently believe, entered into
the joys of Paradise. Mrs. Knowles was
the daughter OF James b. Higgins and Mary
H., his wife, and born March IL, 1911, was
in the 73rd year OF her age. Full fifty years
ago she received confirmation at the hands
of Bishop Stone, the Bishop of Maryland,
and from that hour she sought to keep her
vows until the hour of departure. She was
kind friend and neighbor, dutiful wife
and daughter, u devoted sister and truly
among the most aifectionate and self.sacri.
ticing OF mothers, and this because she was
an humble child of the king, this faith in
Jesus Christ our Lord. She was buried in
the Gods acre of the Higgins family, near
Rockville. Thus "God giveth his beloved
