Resented Turnout Norway.
This proposition was resented thru
out Norway, and in June, 1904, the Nor
wegian government prepared so-ealled
promemoria to prove that the prln-
ciplesO expressed in the Swedish reply
were not only in violation of the Nor
wegian constitution, but also in certain
directions step backward.
This was the end of negotiations. A
new cabinet, under the leadership of
Michaelson, has in the meantime come
into power in Norway. About the mid
die Of May the Norwegian parliament
passed consular service law in &C
cordance with the ideas in the agree.
ment Of December, 1908. The Danish
observer then rehearsed briefly the re-
cent events, showing how King Oscar
was placed in an extremely difficult
position, how he decided ultimately tC

Norwegian parliament declared that the
king had ceased to rule, as King OF
Norway, and that with no common king

weakens Foreign Politics.
This Danish writer thinks that Nor
ways present isolation weakens Scan
dinavian foreign politics, and, while h
would deprecate, and does not antlci
pate, any resort to force to perpetuat'
the union, he hopes that another form
of federal collaboration may be found
including, possibly, the third Scandlna
Wan nation, Denmark, which would b.
more likely to promote the Happiness
in peace or war of the three Scandi
navian nations than their previous nom
inal union.
The Danish Observers statement o
the case is approved substantially b.
Rasmus B. Anderson, who is one of tn
most prominent Norwegian American
in this country. He thinks the .disso
luton of the union will be a blessing t
both countries. So long as Norway. an
Sweden were united under one kin
there was likely to be friction, but lie
Norway and Sweden dissolve partner
ship and there will be no better friend
in all Europe than these two nations.
John Enander, editor Of the Hen
landet Of Chicago, speaking as SWed
of the Danish observer article, az
tends King Oscar and declares that b
could not have acted otherwise than
he did when the crisis came. He RI
grets the secession of Norway, but bt

Winnipeg, June 29.-The province of
Quebec will probably remain French
its population is French, and the rural
element, from which Montreal and Que
bee are recruited, is distinctly and te-
naciously French in all it's walks and
ways. The legislative assembly Of the
lowed in it's deliberations, is conducted
almost wholly in French.
But in the other provinces of Canada
the tendencies of modern business are
all operating toward the wider use Of
English, and west Of Quebec it is prob
whole Dominion as firmly committed to
the English language as the correspond
ing area in the United States.
Hardly per cent OF the del1bera-
tions in the federal parliament at Of
tawa are conducted in French, altho it
is any members privilege to speak Q. or
to ask questions in that language. There
is a large representation of persons Of
French descent, including most of the
sixty-fve members from Quebec, but the
| French lawmakers prefer to 90 bus1-
ness in the English language, except
where they occasionally say something
strictly for home consumption.
Old French Traditions.
This is the part of the Dominion,
next to Quebec, where the French ira,
ditions were naturally strongest, and
the only province where blhngual
schools are maintained at public ex-
pense. It was assumed when Manitoba
was set up, in. 1870, that it would be o.

Separate Consulates.

In january, 1902, the king appointed
a new committee who should consider
how separate consulates would work
with the retention Of the common diplo-
matte service. In July of that year
that committee issued a unanimous re-
port favoring the realization Of Nor
ways wishes. The following points
Were agreed upon:
First-That separate consulates should
be established for the two countries,
each country's consults subject only to
home authority.
Second-The relations of the separate
consuls to the minister of foreign affairs
We're to be arranged by parallel laws
in both parliaments.
The king approved the agreement in
1908 and Norway's wishes seemed likely
to be realized. The Norwegian cabinet
prepared new code of parallel laws
which, in May, 1904, was sent to Stock
holm for consideration by the Swedish
government.
The Swedish answer made by Premier
Bostrum was surprise in, that it did
not contain an outline of parallel laws,
but drew up new outline of principles
for the settlement of the relation Of

Affairs in Kings Hands.

After the separation from Denmark
and the acceptance of the king of Swe-
den as her king, Norway naturally came
to place the administration of her for
eign affairs in the hands of her king.
But when in 1855 Sweden made the min
lister Of foreign affairs responsible to
the Swedish parliament, Norway felt it
a serious slight to be deprived of every
influence worth mentioning in her for
eign politics, and to see the admins
tration of these matters placed in the
hands Of a foreigner not responsible
to the Norwegian parliament, and who
could not be expected to have any spe-
cial knowledge of Norway's particular
interests.
Frequent negotiations were undertake
en- to adjust this matter. In 1891, Nor
way established what was called the
"consulate committee to examine the
question and it came to the conclusion
that there was commercial necessity for
Norway to have her own consuls Con
fict with Sweden was the result, and
cabinets succeeded each other unable to
adjust the difficulty. In 1898, Sweden
suggested committee of seven of each
nation to discuss all differences pertain.

not agree.

New York, June 29.-The July num-

Norway and Sweden by Danish OBJ
server. The name of the writer is not
given, but he is vouched for by the Re-
view of Reviews as one in a position
to- speak with .sympathyAfor both ma
tions and yet without special preju-
dice in favor Of or against either.
He calls attention at the outset to
doctrine Of Sweden, while Norway in
terests demand free trade. The Swe-
dish constitution also grants the crown
and the higher classes large influence
with Che government while Norway is
the most democratic monarchy in the
world.
Norway a Free State.
Paragraph 1 of the act of union of
1915 describes Norway as a free, in
dependent, indivisable and inalienable
state united with Sweden under one
says the Danish observer, has not
proved conducive to the happiness of
the two nations because it is difficult
for Sweden to realize that Norway was
not conquered country, while the Nor
wegians on their side have kept watch
over their rights with irritation and
jealousy while the radical parties have
at times promoted an agitation which
in a nation more politically mature
would have carried them far beyond
their mark.
1t was the question Of Norway's right
to manage it's own foreign affairs that
became the special bone of contention
Sweden considered common administra
ton an important guarantee for the
preservation of the. union and, as a
matter Of fact, during the almost one
hundred years in which the two coun.
tries were united, Norway has beer
practically excluded from exercising
its asserted right to manage it's own for
eign affairs.
