worked necessarily ever since BRING

ANY CHANGE IS GOOD.
This Is the General Feeling in Re-
gard to Norway's New
a Ministry.
Reports From Norrland Indicate

+. 1884, Famine. ri

IF was generally admitted long be-
fore the elections that any change IN
the Norwegian ministry would pc an
Improvement, hence there is proDaolS
considerable satisfaction over the res
ignation OF Otto Blehr and his asso-
clates Yesterday. The new ministry,
formed by Professor Hagerup, Is Il
coalition affair, frequently not a safe
combination. Still, with the support
a faithful and loyal majority IN the
storthing, any ministry ought to steer
fairly we'll.
Most OF the ten members are COM
paratively unknown. or course ia
are leading men,. Chr. Nicholson and
Vogt are we'll known. Everybody
knows of Rev. H. n. Hauge, but few
would suspect that Il parish priest was
good cabinet material.
1t was believed that Gunnar knud-
son would remain in the new cablnet,
and there is every reason to believe
that he was invited to do so. He is
a strong man and would have greatly
strengthened the new cabinet. Inc
fact that there are so many compare
lively new men in the cabinet does
not necessarily stamp the ministry as
weak, for often comparatively ob-
scure lawyer or business man makes
q better cabinet officer than a distin-
gushed politician. ~.- ...

Ibsen makes him the leader Of the
consular negotiations. He has given
serious attention to the questions in

respective Of party demands a sepa-
rate consular service for Norway, the
Norwegian demand will probably be
recognized by Sweden.
1t is supposed that the general pro-
gram Of the new government will be
retrenchment and economy and the
stimulation of industrial life as much
as possible.

REPORTS FROM NORRLAND
Food Will Be Very Scarce There This
Winter.

All kinds Of grain are daily increas-
ing in price in Sweden, and the cost
Of food is mounting correSpOndingly.
The fruit crop is an entire failure.
However. cranberries, which grow
wild all thru the woods in nearly every
section of Sweden. present a crafty
ing exception to the rule, being even
more plentiful and cheaper this year
than for many years previous. ~,
Reports from different parts Of
Norrland, i'll which there fell three
feet Of snow when the barley was dry
ing, vary so greatly that it is i'm
possible to form an intelligent opin-
ion of the condition of the crops on
the whole; but agricultural authori-
ties predict that even if there should
be no famine, there will at least be
very trying scarcity of food during
the coming winter.
