The statement made by Biornson
q short while ago to the effect that
he is a socialist, has been qualified
by himself as follows: II am not a
socialist if this means that I believe
in the socialistic dreams which pos
sibly may be of some Importance
hundred years from now. I have alb
solutely no faith in state socialism or
the great money combines which are
supposed to pave the way to state
socialism. These combines have not
stood their test yet. And on the So
cialistic state of the future no policy
can be based. But say to the work.
ingmen, demand something that can
be obtained, as, for instance, an eight
hour day, and I shall fight on your
side"
The celebration of Bjornson's 10th
birthday could not easily have been
more fattering to the poet than it
proved to be. He received over 600
congratulatory kilograms during the
day, and some of the presents were
very valuable. Particular mention
must be made of an address signed by
30,O28 Danish men and women, an
embroidered gobelin carpet from
Swedish women and a silver bowl
from the Danish teachers association.
The students society of Upsala sent
"a telegram in Norwegian rhyme, and
i 800 Finlanders who had attended peo-
PIES high schools joined in a common
greeting to the poet. One of Born
sons plays, 'fBeyond His Faculties,'' -
was presented at the Kristiania ma
tional theater, and the enthusiasm of
the audience rose to a high pitch
when the poet appeard. Parts of the
program were the singing of ''Ja, vi
Ielsker dette Landet'' and torch
light procession arranged by the stu
dents. 49,.

DEN MARK,

II To the west of Aasum church,
Jylland, has been found large, beau
tiful runic stone which is five feet
high and three feet wide. The in
scription shows that those who raised
the stone were Christians and that it
dates from the tenth century. The
stone also proves that the Aasum
church is one of the oldest in Den
mark.
Is Information has been received from
the literary Greenland expedition
which explored the coast of Green
land last summer. The distance COW
cred by the expedition, including
trips in the fjords, was about 900
1 English) miles. When the report
was sent the expedition was in hopes
of adding another $50 miles before
going into winter quarters. The plan
of the expedition includes trip on
.sleds in the middle of the winter, and
in the latter part of April it ex-
poets to be among the northermost
human inhabitants of the earth,
namely, the Eskimos at Cape York, of
which a special study will be made.
The four members of the expedition
were all doing very well, and no mis-
haps were mentioned in the report.

THE WEST FOR STATEHOOD.

II was good news tor the territories
and for the lovers of fair play every
where. that the house passed the state
hood bill. says the El paso Herald. The
house leaders may have some astute
political motive in fighting statehood,
but western republicans are unable 10
appreciate it, and stand for fulfilling
platform promises. The west is solid
for statehood. There are many reasons
for holding 10 this position Chief
among these are the inherent Justice
that demands fair treatment of the ter
ritories. the ample precedent for the
granting OF statehood. and the in,
creased weight that the west would
have in both houses with these add
lions 10 the union of states.
! Il is beneath the dignity of true
! craftsmanship to fight statehood on
/ grounds of fancied partisan advantage.
| In the first place. republicans in the
west are willing to trust the people 10

place. there is no reason to believe
that they will not vote the right way
