POLITICS IN NORWAY.
Hot Fight Up Close to the
North Pole.
Just Possible That Ii Will End in
the Diss solution of the
Union.

STOCKHOLM, Sept. s.-The most import
ant political campaign in the history of
Norway is now going Oh. Numerous
meetings are being held and the two main
parties, the Right and Left, are contesting
every inch of ground. The first elections
TO the Siorthing resulted favorab bly, to the
Radicals, but later on the Conservatives
were victorious In several districts. This
alarmed the party OF the Left, especially
as there was a strife between that party
and the socialists. Some kind of a deal
had to be made. and the Left decided to
insert into its platform one of the prin-
ciples of the socialistie party-the demand
for universal suffrage. With the help of
the socialists the Left hopes 10 secure
majority for its candidates, who are in
favor of a separate Minister of Foreign
AffaiIs for Norway and also of separate
CODsuls.
In some judicial courts of the country
no cases can be heard or taken up, tie
reason being that the judges have de-
serted their benches and are travelling
through the country making speeches in
the interest of the Radicals Should ths
election result favorably to the Radicals.
the Swedish Rigsdag must Immediately act
in regard to the consular questions, as the
constitution of Sweden says Sweden AMI
Norway shall have mutual eonsuIates.
The Radical Norwegian party has few if
any friends In the Swedish Rigsdag. At
present more than forty of the members
are peasants. The lest have liberal ideas
but are conservatives as regards the claim
OF the party Of the Left of Norway, and
most of them regard the consular question
as one tnat can only be solved by war or
the dissolution of the union.

brilliant and delicate tints now fashiona-
bic in silk velvets may be obtained in vel

light cOlors arc utilized it would be hard
to guess, since there is an insurmountable

Prices this year are exceptionally low, and
brilliant shades, which are usually more
costly than dark ones, are now sold at the
same valuation. Silk pushes have also
come down surprisingly, fine qualities be-

Since china silks came into such uni

background, being used mainly for lin

When Edmund Burke was preparing

he was told that person who had long re-
sided in India, but was now an inmate of
Bedlam, could probably give him some
useful information He went to Bedlam
accordingly, and the maniac gave him, in
long, rational and well conducted conver.
sation, the results of long and various ex-
perience OF Indian affairs. On leaving the
cell Burke told the keeper in attendance
that the poor man was as much in his
senses as he. The keeper answered, "Sir,
please step back to the poor gentlemans
cell and ask him what he had for break
fast"
Burke could not refuse. "Pray, sir
said ne, tell me what you had for break
fast" The man at once put on the wild
stare of maniac and shouted: "Hobnails,
sir! 1t is shameful to think how they
treat u.s. They give us nothing but hob
nails" and proceeded with "descant
