Commissioner Warning IS entitled 10 credit 1or
overv GOOD thing which he has done in the right
way and at This time when he is under severe
on1 nrohahIv lust ccnsurc on account Of the
financial management Of his department. we
take pleasure in repeating our commentator
Of his persistent warfare against the storage OF
trucks in city streets There seems to be special
ncel ms, now of active cooperation between
the Street Cleaning Department and Intelligent
citizens who have approved its course in TINS
matter. for n bill was passed by the last Legs

is about to be given by Mayor Strong. IN ne

several weeks ago sent perfectly truhlui III"
exceedingly forciblc letter concerning the evils
which they have long been permitted I" lhn''
upon the whole community themselves IN
clulcd. il is urged by advocates OF this measure
that a complete withdrawal Of their special pf'l-
lcccS would subject them 10 great ana I'M
necessary loss and Inconvenience would
amount in short to a cruel hardship. Eut II
seems TO lis that if there are diSinicr'Stcd per
sons who take this view Of the case their sym
paihv must be due 10 Il radically false cohc'p-
ton Of the uses of public thoroushfare. Such
a miSconccption is not altogether unnaturai ana
strange. for 1t has been pcrsiScnily inculca'ed
by the municipal authorities. Tender conSidera-
ton for this or that private interest with pull
has long been one OF the familiar principles OF
municipal administration. and ii Is not surpriS-
ing that some respectable citizens find 1t difli-
cult TO comprehend all at once The superior rights
of the community rs whole
As Commissioner Warlng said in The letter To
which we have referred. there Is no better 'N-
cusc for the storage Of trucks in the streets than
for the storage If lumber or any other article
or use and value which the owner takes care Of
nv having rent ON the contrary, there is every
reason why the great majority should not be
injured for the benefit u very few. That 'hc

The advance of 50 cents in the price Of pig iron
by the Thomson Iron Company, and the rise OF
Besscmor iron at Pttsburg to 81 50, result from
increase in wages which grows more general In

As there seems to he possibility OF rupture
of the ties by which Norway has been bound TO
Sweden since 1910 il IS worth while remember
ing that this union was just as compulsory and
unwelcome TO the Norwcglans as that between
England and Ireland fifteen years earlier was
10 the neople of the Emerald Isle. In the latter
case il was brought about by political trickery
and by an amount Of bribery compared to which
that Of Tweed and Of the Tammany Ring falls
into the shade But with Norway 1t was effected
nv an armed invasion, the sturdy Norsemcn
making a hard fight for what they considered
their freedom. Up to 1913 Norway had peiohgeu
to Denmark, and it was a son OF the hing OF Dch-
mark who was ruling the country as Nlceroy vi
King Christian VI. The latter had Deeh ihJu-
dicious enough to ally his fortunes WIN 'hose
Of Napoleon, and when the rout of the frchch

which eliminated in the overthrow OF the french

enemies Of his former patron, and with force
Of 80 900 Swedcs invaded Norway on the Strength
of the Danish Kings connection with Bonaparic.
The war between Norway and Sweden resulted
in the defeat Of the Norscmcn and the expulsion
from the country OF the Danish Niceroy ana his
officers: and the Congress Of Vienna, organized
10 reconstitute that Europe which had been so
sadly disintegrated by Napoleon, affirmed the
conquest and awarded the Kingdom OF Norway
TO Sweden as a reward for Bernadotte's descr-
ton of his old comrade and for the assistance
which he had afforded TO the allied Powers.
Instead OF treating Norway as conquered
country, the Swedcs manifested a far more lib
eral spirit than that displayed by England
toward Ireland at the time Of the Union. For,
having summoned Norwegian National Assem-
bly, they placed 1t in negotiation with commits

of drawing up a Norwegian Constitution. where

Western Kingdom, the King being compelled to

revenue. equally between Stockholm and Chris

retained In connection with this Norwegian Con

ton that might concern both Kingdoms.
