ECAMAINANIkA SINGERS.

The world has heard so much of Ole
Bull and Jenny Lind and the beautiful
and attractive, as we'll as melodious,
Nilsson that the impression is created
that after them all seem commonplace.
Yet not only does the Norseman's race
still supply sweet singers and great art
lists, but in the late Niels Wilhelm Gada
Denmark boasted one of the greatest of
modern composers-the founder of the
Scandinavian school which introduced
new element into European music.
The following account is from the t'Scan-
dinavian Song," Of Minneapolis.
His father was maker of musical in
struments in the Danish capital, where
Niels himself was born on Oct. %, 1917.
A lad of great promise, he received early
instruction on the violin, piano and
guitar. But the family resources were
limited, His first teacher was q mere
technician. 1t was not until he was put
under the instruction of Wiershall, Berg
green and Weise that he really began to
justify his early promise. He wrote some
compositions that showed remarkable
prococity of imitation rather than of in
vention. Even yet he had not developed
his true bent. 4 lucky chance, before
he was yet out of his teens, ma1e him a
member of the royal orchestra at Copen-
hagen. There, having access to the scores
of the great composers, he attained an
insight into the mysteries of instrumental
ton, and laid the foundation of his future
great success.
Tha5 success was first realized by his
aOssian Overture" which in 1S41 gained
the prize offered by the Copenhagen Mu-
sical union. It's fame was not merely
local. 1t was played all over Europe,
it crossed the Atlantic and has frequently
been heard IN American concert saloons.
So recently as Dec. IS, nine days before
the death Of the composer. it was played
at the Symphony Society S concert in New
York city, under the direction of Walter
Damrosch,
But luckily the prophet was honored
Morris tribune., 1891-05-13

As in most nations, the settlement of
the government on liberal principles,
after season of storm and revolution,
was followed quickly by revival of art
and literature, and the leading poet of
the new regime was Henrik Arnold
Wergeland. Born in Christiansand
June II, 1903, and dying August IL.
1915, his life was but a brief enc, yet it
was long enough for him to become the
most popular dramatic and lyric poet of
Norway, and to found new school.
The true poet is always lover of liberty,
and liberalism glows through all of
Wergeland's poetry. His many con-
troversies with those who criticised his
''provincialism" may now be passed over
with q smile.
The principle of the present form of
government in Norway as laid down in
the constitution of 18th of May, 1914, by
the constitutional assembly at Eidswold,
gives free scope to a pronounced democ-
racy. The kernel, at least, is and will
always remain democratic; as to the
nature of the shell, it matters but very
little.
Under this constitution Norway has
passed through an era of marvellous
and progress, economically
and otherwise. Several reforms of great
are still needed, however.
A new army organization adapted to the
peculiar conditions of the country, and
less burdensome, is one of them. Initia-
tory measures toward the disestablish-
ment of the state church are also being
agitated. Of still more Importance, per-
haps, is the question how to deal with
the large number of tenant farmers (hus-
mandy. Though immeasurably better
than are the Irish tenants, their
is not above the need of radical
These and other reforms
will undoubtedly become living issues in
the near future, as we'll as the question

vocated by the party of the LEFT" for so

Morris tribune., 1891-05-13
RECENT POLITICAL EVENTS

The old controversy between the two
existing parties in Norway as to the pro-
priety of effectuating change in the re-
lations to Sweden has recently brought
about the resignation of the kings cabi-
net. This council since 1889 has been
composed Of representatives of the Right
party. In view of the unmistakable pub
lie sentiment i'll regard to the question of
equality in the adjustment of diplomatic
affairs the Norwegian and the Swedish
cabinets agreed upon few changes in
the ''rigsakt" (the laws relating to the
union), whereby it was thought the for
mer country would get an opportunity
to exercise q greater power in these re-
spects than heretofore. By the time the
storthing opened in Christiania, in Feb
ruary last, Premier Stang laid before that
body proposition to effect the changes
thus agreed upon. This proposition, how
ever, did not meet with the approval of
the Left, that party having adopted
plank in its platform demanding perfect
equality in the relations with Sweden,
and consequently took the standpoint
that any change in the ''rigsakt" which
did not fully comply with the Norwe-
gian peoples desire for a minister for
foreign affairs of their own was not
worth their consideration. One of the
mem nbers-Mr. c. Be- 3 zser, of Berger
therefore moved that the storthing s
clare itself in favor of absolute equality
with Sweden in the settlement of all
questions relating to foreigrl countries.
AS this proved to be the opinion of the
entire party, Premier Stang and his col
leagues almost Immediately after the
adoption of Berner's resolution handed
in their designations to the king.
Though undoubtedly very conserva-
tive in his views, and specially so in this
case, King Oskar had to yield to the
inevitable, and at the demand of the
Left extend q call to Rekter Steen, of
Stavanger, the recognized leader of the
party, to form a new cabinet. Mr.. Steen
did not long hesitate, and the cabinetw was
formed within short time. It is with
out single exception composed of rep
resentatives from the radical wing of
the Left. The new ministry, it is gen.
orally conceded, is a strong one.
For the time being nothing can be
done toward carrying out the ideas of
the Left in regard to the relations with
Sweden, neither by the storthing nor the
cabinet. Before takingan further steps
in this direction the people in the gem
eral election. which is to take place next
fall, will render its verdict. If it returns
to the storthing a majority of the Left
party it will very likely be only ques-
ton 'e short time when Norway is
placed on an equal footing with her
sister state in the diplomatic world.
Actual danger of dissolution of a union
so universally beneficial to the contract
ing parties is hardly to be feared. The
people in both lands are well satisfied
with it, and there is no apparent reason
why Sweden should disapprove of an
endeavor on the part of Norway to OBJ:
tain it's simple right. JOHN WEST.

The Danish king was lover of music.
He admired the "Ossian Overture" in
the young man of twenty-four who had
produced it; he was u rare and great
genius. A royal stipend was settled on
Gade to enable him to take trip to
Germany. Naturally his steps turned to
Mendelssohn and the Gewandhaus at
Leipsic. Mendelssohn welcomed him
with open arms. In the 'Ossian Over
ture" he had recognized q disciple of his,
informed, however, by an original spirit
and national character that had not
hitherto displayed itself in the higher

We saved our own. dear native land
From ancient strife and battles CORY,
And brought it in the suns bright glory;
By law and plow we made it grand.
We blasted mountains for their treasure;
Our spreading sails the seas did measure;
And thoughts heamed over polar snow,
AS when the midnight sun doth glow.
BY trust in God our ground we hold,
Each spot improved by cultivation;
Each fortune made by navigation;
Each youthful mind which we unfold
Each gem of thought through darkness BEAM

Each dead, increasing and redeeming-
A province new is for the land,
And for our freedom guard will stand.

AS the 18th Of May draws near the Nor
wegians all over the world begin to pre-
pare themselves for celebration. Since
the days of Henrik Wergeland, the
famous poet, who succeeded in establish
ing the custom of celebrating this day,
the protest Of King Carl Johan not
withstanding, the people of Norway
each and every year have assembled in
homer of the adoption of the consttu-
ton OF 1914.
AS is we'll known, the 18th of May cor
responds to American Fourth of July.
The United States constitution of 1887
and the Norwegian constitution of 1914
naturally differ in many respects, as the
former is the fundamental basis of the
grandest republic in the world, while
