NOTE AND COMMENT.

The highwaymen respects not even art. At
the East sketch artist out for a days study
of nature unadorned, was overhauled by q
knight of the road and his tools of trade
were confiscated by the rascal; his brushes,
taken. This is crowding it too much. Surely
now civilization will arise and smite the
tribes of highwaymen from one end OF the
land to the other. When artists cannot COM
mand respect from the marauders it is time
to protest in way that these modern Dick
Turpins will fear. Art must not perish.
Now that the agitation for the cleaning of

of Httering the streets will come 10 an end.

THERE is trouble between Norway
and Sweden. There is one King over the
two countries, and that he is good man
and much beloved is undeniable. But
Norway wishes to be free to establish a
republican form of government. Sweden
objects, and Norway proposes to fight, if
need be. a chief complaint on the part
Of the Norwegians is that the articles of
union provide that all foreign Ministers
shall be Swedes. This. it is now taken,
is an unjust discrimination. and one
that in foreign estimation belittles Nor
way. From the activity and determina-
ton of the people of Norway we look
for their success in casting off the union
with Sweden.

THE MEETING TONIGHT.

1t is to be hoped that the initial meet
ing concerning the proposed Chamber of
Commerce will be large one tonight.
Indifference 10 it, light attendance, will
have bad effect; undiminished interest
and large gathering will greatly aid
Sacramento.
Everyone who fully realizes his duties
and privileges as a Sacramentan and
whose business, manufacturing and gem
eral interests relate to the prosperity of
Sacramento well understands that the
movement is an unselfsh and public
spirited one. It is not in any personal
interest, but for the good of all; it is not
to create close corporation, but broad
minded citizens organization that can
stand forward as representative of the
city and its best interests.
The suggestion for the chamber was
the natural, the inevitable outgrowth Of
the advance OF the city and its develop
ing needs. 1t is the legitimate product
OF the conviction that Sacramento's COM
mercial. manufacturing, property and
industrial interests ought to have rep
resen tative, broad minded body to speak
for them, to exploit our resources and
make them known to the world, body
that can meet similar organizations Of
tI,,,,. 80 flNl Low nd Il hot
the city which is now nobody's business
because it is everybody's.
1t is charged that in considerable degree
Sacramento is provincial; that it lacks
breadth, liberality and progressiveness OF
spirit; that it haggles over small things
and misses great opportunities, because
of lack OF unity among our people; it Is
constantly saying what ought to be done,
but not doing it; that there is neglect of
matters which would conserve commu-
nifty good, because there is nobody au-
thorized to act and that the most that has
been accomplished here is due to indi
vidual effort and oftenest in the face of
opposition, suspicion and mean jealousy.
These charges are in part true, but in
the main false. But they are all accepted
as true and will continue to be so received
until we put forward an organized, repre-
sentative body charged with the office of
challenging such accusations and strip
ping them to naked falsity. So far, how
ever, as they are true, such a body is
needed to apply correctives; to rouse the
laggard; to broaden the views of the mar
row-minded and stimulate to action those
who now neglect duty or are content to
the future and of the present.
