Says the Scandinavian (Chicago) in
its issue of Nov. II: can era of good
feeling has apparently dawned in Nor
way. The new Hagerup-Ibsen cabi-
net, succeeding the Blehr government,
is made up of an equal number of
conservatives and liberals, all mem
bers representing the moderate ele,
ments within their respective parties.
A similar spirit of Cancellation and
compromise controlled the organiza ton
Of the new storthing. The offices of
the national assembly were equally
divided between the opposing parties
and all committees appointed were
made in Ion partisan spirit as far
as practical. The new departure re-
fleets a wholesome reaction against
the excessive partisanship which has
played such a conspicuous part in
Norwegian politics for number of
years. The people got tired of the
perpetual feud of elimination and re-
elimination and turned the extrem.
lists down and elected a storthing
dominated by the moderate and con-
servative sense of the nation. The
Blehr government had lost public con-
fidence by it's extravaganza in the face
Of hard times, by arbitrary appoint
ments to office, and by it's lukewarm-
ness in conducting the negotiations
with Sweden for a settlement of the
consular question. The majority of
the people felt that new men were
needed at the helm. The result augurs
well for the future Of Norway and the
Scandinavian peninsula. The new
government has been received with
general expressions of public con-
fidence, not only in Norway but also
in the brother country of Sweden. 1t
represents a united Norway.
Indicat tons are that the Swedish
Norwegian foreign minister will make
representations to the st. Petersburg
government anent an agreement which
was made between Russia on one side
and Sweden and Norway on the other
over forty years ago to the effect that
all tramps, beggars and criminals who
have emigrated to Russia from Sweden
or Norway can be sent back to their
native land provided they have not
engaged in business or farming. The
rule applies to both countries. Russia
has, however, recently violated this
agreement by exiting two Swedes and
one Norwegian from Finland. They
were exiIed for no cause, and are
all three of them engaged in legitimate
work. The agreement is given an en-
tirely different Interpretation by the
Russian government, but it is stated
on good authority that the Swedish
Norwegian minister will demand a
full explanation from the Russian side
for exiting three Scapdinavians from

DENMARK,
Copenhagen,


The Finnish population Is on a
steady increase in Copenhagen at pres
ent. Hundreds are here seeking
refuge from Russian tyranny and they
are being well treated by the Copen-
hagians, who try to help them when
ever il is possible. Those who cannot
procure work in the city are directed
to the country districts where a num-
Der of them secure employment.
There has been much building actiy-
ity in Copenhagen during the summer
and fall. Many new public buildings
and business houses have been erected.
The style Of architecture is unique and
all the new buildings are modern IN
every respect.

creas1ng exodus, but nothing has yet
The visit of Swedish-Americans near
ly always results in a large emigration
in the fall and they generally succeed
in providing for their friends and
relatives when they come to America.
Then again the crop failures of the
last two seasons has discouraged a
number of farmers and it is but natur-
al that their sons and daughters turn
their eyes toward America, where they
are pretty sure to have some friend or
relative, and so if they can in any
way scrape together enough they start
for the other side. Besides the great
steamship lines encourage emigration.
Their agents are located in nearly
every city of any prominence and
these in turn are pretty sure to be
provided with literature from enter
prising land firms in America. Little
wonder then that emigration is stead,

Governor Bergstrom, of Lulea, came
to Stockholm Nov. 1 to confer with
A. Z. Odelberg, the minister of agricul-
ture, in regard to what steps may be
advisable and necessary to prevent
distress in the northern portions Of
the province of Norbotten during the
coming winter. Mr.. Bergstrom says
there are four causes of the famine
this year: Drought in the early sum-
mer, deIuging rains in the latter part
of the summer, severe frosts and final
ly the ravages of the lemming, which
gnawed off what the frosts had left
The governor has already petitioned
for help for the parishes most affected,
He has 10000 crowns left over from
the donations Of last winter, and Min
lister Odelberg has about 10000 crowns
left of the contributions from Ameri-

propriated 100000 crowns (about $1O7,-

Emigration from Norway continues
at an increasing rate. More than TO-
600 people emigrated during the first
six months of this year, in comparison
with half that number during the
same period last year. If emigration
continues at the same rate during the
rest of the year the population will
probably show a decrease. That In,
dustry is still badly depressed is shown
by the fact that the state railways
record only insignificant traffic in

Caution!

This is not a gentle word-but when
you think how liable you are not to
purchase the only remedy universally
known and a remedy that has had the
largest sale of any medicine In the
world since 1868 for the cure and
treatment of consumption and throat
and lung troubles without losing its
great popularity all these years, you
will be thankful we called your atten'
ton to Boschee's German Syrup. There
are so many ordinary cough remedies
made by druggists and others that are
cheap and good for light colds perhaps,
but for severe coughs, bronchitis, Group
and especially for consumption,
where there is difficult ex~pectoration
and coughing during the nights and
Mornings, there is nothing like German
Syrup. The 25-cent size has just been
introduced this year. Regular size, rs
