Mr.. Nystrom by the other ministers,
and he was asked to sign it, but he
said that he would not, as he did not
know what it was for. When he was
told it was petition protesting against
the granting of a license to the Svea
Gtlle, he read ~ over and handed IL
back and asked why the others had
not signed it, as he saw no names on
the petition, but they said they wanted
him to sign it first. Rev. Mr.. Nystrom
refused, saying that he would not be
the first to sign, as he would be con-
sidered the prime mover, and he did
not think that it was right to sign his
name before the persons who drew up
the petition. The ministers took the
petition and departed and the matter
was dropped, the petition never being
presented to the commissioners.
Speaking further, Rev. Mr.. Nystrom
said he thought it was very curious
sort of a thing to do to single out one
club and protest against it. He said
ne was in favor of petition protesting
against the sale of liquor in any club
in the city.
When asked his opinion Of the uues-
ton of license or no-license in the citv.
Rev. Mr.. Nystrom said it would be a
good thing for the city if there was
no-license, but it would be a bad thing
hquOA SOulu De Drought IN, as
mas oeen done other no-license years,
as there was more danger from the
influences of the kitchen dives than
nave fiourished in the years of no-li-
cense than in the saloons of the pres
emit day. He then said that a letter
had been sent to him from the Swed-
lsh Temperance Federation, asking
him TO speak the Sunday before cleo
ton day and ask his parishioners to
vote no-lciense election day and to
take up collection for the no-license
fund. He said that he would not speak
of license or no-license at the Sunday
meetings in his church, but would let
those of his church who are voting use
their own judgment in the matter the
same as he would do himself.

day morning, and when a reporter for
The Spy called in the afternoon on
Rev. E. ]. Nystrom of the Mulberry
Street Lutheran Church and asked him
why ne was not present at the meet
ing, Mr.. Nystrom said: I'VE received
no invitation to be present" He then
said that the reason that the ministers
of the Swedish Lutheran churches
were not present was on account of
some trouble that he had with Rev.
Nils Eagle, who was formerly pastor of
the Thomas Street Methodist Church
and Rev. A ]. Anderson. who was
pastor of the First Swedish Congreea-
tiOnal Church, over the signing of a
petition which was to be presented to
