pREFERRIYG THE COUNTRY

While IN some countries there is
complaint that the tendency Of the pop
ulauon is towards Capitalization In the
larger cities. to the detriment OF the
agricultural interests, In Denmark
there is said 10 be on opposite move
ment, the tendency being TO leave the
cities for the country. And the
result Of this Is general pros
perity, which makes that small
country the second In the world in the
per capita wealth Of the population.
Among the reasons for the back to
the land movement, given in an article
quoted In Public Opinion are the
cooperative societies formed and main
tained by the farming population. The
farmers in that country combine for
the collection. sale and expectation OF
their products; they have several hun
dred banks. which they themselves
manage. Cooperative diaries. baker
les and factories are the rule and not
the exception. They have committees
for popular amusements and Institutes
Of instruction, And In this way the ru-
raj population find the country yielding
abundantly In the way Of compensation
for labor spent on the land. The mon-
otony is also broken by the educational
and social facilities, and country life
has been rendered attractive to the
masses that are struggling for exist
ence In the larger cities.
There IS an impression among the
leading spirits Of progress in that coun-
try that the people are rather slow
in following the procession Of advance
ment, and some years ago a prominent
gentleman from Copenhagen travelled
through the United states In order to
take notes OF American methods In edu-
catlonal and business establishments,
with q view 20 their introduction at
home According TO the reports, how
ever Denmark Is already FAR advanced
In the matter OF practical cooperation,
and with the most gratifying results.
And this is an object lesson. In the
larger European countries there Is an
idea. that It takes vast military es-
adjustments TO secure prosperity, But
here is a little country--too small 20
Indulge In dreams of colonization and
conquests-forging TO the front in ma
tional wealth, merely by applying itself
industriously and intelligently TO the
pursuits OF peace. It is already far
ahead Of some Of the larger nations
that spend their energy on armies and
navies. why should such object les
sons De- lost upon the world In this age
when social questions demand an impair
tlal hearing? The results Of the policy
OF italy for instance, or Spain, may
prohtably be compared TO those Of
the policy Of the three Scandinavian
countries.

WORKING IN HARMONY.

The Salt Lake Herald makes an EFFORT
70 be facetious over some remarks from
country paper, about the harmony
between the Deseret News and a morn
ing contemporary, with which It has
often been at variance on several i'm
portant points But the Herald copied
only half the paragraph that seems to
have excited rs risIblltles. The ha,-
mony particularly referred 70 by the
c. ,. was this;
"The Deseret News and the Tribune

was one Of the purposes TO which the
money was 20 be devoted, could not
possibly be Of any use or relief during
the present season. But on Saturday
