SWEDES MUST GET g.. -.
AN @. X. TO MARRIAGES

Washington, Feb. 28.-Notice has
been sent to the Swedish legation at
Washington that hereafter all Swedes
who marry in any for>ign country must
get permission from their diplomatic
representatives if they wish their mar
riagc to be legally recognized in Swe-
den.
The action is due to the fact that
many Swedes have been going to near
by countries, where it was easy to get
divorces, and marrying again, some
times under conditions that would not
be allowed in Sweden. When a Swede
living in the United States wishes to
be married and return to his native
land, he must apply for permission to
the minister in Washington, who, If
everything is in accordance with the
laws Of Sweden, will issue certificate
to that effect. This certificate must
be produced when the couple returns to
Sweden.
The Swedish consul at New York
has been given permission to issue
these marriage permits, owing to the
large number of Swedcs iii that city,
and he is the only person / nthe Uri-
ted States with power, aside from the
minister. The large number OF Swedes
lin the northwest would seem to deniand
that like authority be given the consul
lin that locality. and this may be
brought about if sufficient pressure is
|exerted. Y 's2+-z 4T' :'>

THE RAILROAD RATE
LEGISLATION NEXT TERM

Washington, Feb. 28.-Railroad
legislation, both as to the fixing of
rates by federal commission, and the
regulation Of private cars, will be taken
up in earnest when the Fifty-ninth
congress meets in special session, prob
ably in October The conservative
men i'll both houses question whether
congress has enough information at
this time to justify it in enacting legis-
lation along either Of these lines. Much
remains to be ascertained before con-
gress can be certain it is in position
to do justice to all the interests in
volved. and at the same time go as far
as possible in the direction Of comply
ing with the popular demand. The
house has already passed bill, b,l it
is doubtful whether any intelligent
friend of the legislation proposed
would hold that the action was preced-
ed by a sufficiently thorough inquiry.
The president himself has not suppos-
ed that it would be possible to secure
action by congress at this time. He
said in the beginning of the agitation
that this would be session of talk, and
the next session would be a session Of
action, having clearly in mind that the
magnitude Of the question, and the I'M
portance of the interests involved,
would demand that action come only
after thorough hearings, and his dis
appointment at the failure Of the sen.
ate to pass the house bill, Or of either
house to take up the private car ques-
tion with a view to disposing of it,yis
neither SO great nor SO spectacular as
has been represented in many quarters.

GORKY WAS RELEASED

and conveyed to place of confinement

residence, it is thought, will not be

of which he is practically the supreme
ruler Gorky knew nothing OF the
governor generals decision when the
doors of the cell which had been his

open. His disappointment, therefore,
was pitiable when just as he was pass

St. Peter and St. Paul he was again
placed under arrest. His appearance
indicated his health had suffered from

Bismarck, N. D.. Feb. 2S.-The ses-
sions of the senate and house yesterday
were without incident. The monotony
of the routine is beginning to have its
effect and everyone seems to be wearing
a tired expression,
The house killed the bill appropriating
$4,000 for the school of forestry after
a tilt between Stevens of Burleigh and
Streeter of Emmorls. Stevens said that
the Bottineau delegation had been pronl-
ised the appropriation and they had Sup
ported every measure Of note and were
entitled to the appropriation. Represent
tatiYe Streeter responded that he would
oppose bill at any time no matter what
kind Of deal any one else had made,
if he thought it was wrong He, said
he had made no deal except with his
constituents and that he intended to keep
the promise to them alone. He believed
the expenditure was needless one and
ought to be killed. The bill was killed
but later in committee of the whole the
bill was 1reconsidered and was put on
the calendar for the next day.
Only four more sessions remain of
the ninth legislative assembly and a
great many bills yet remain for passage.
The sessions from now on will probably
be long and may even extend into the
evening hours especially in the house. 4
The governor has sent most of his
appointments to the senate although a
few minor positions still remain vacant.
lit is rumored that a man from one of
the western states who has had great
deal of experience in irrigation work
will be given the appointment of state
engineer. State Engineer Chandler does
not feel that he cares to give up his work
at the state university for the position.
The man mentioned for the position has
been heard from and will probably ac-
cept. He has qualifications which will
make the State a valuable man. Engi-
neer Atkinson is also being urged for
the position and IS abundantly qualified,
but bis location is against his appoint
iieilt.
There was nothing Of any special in
terest in the way Of Legislation in the
house session except a little tilt between
Stevens Of Burleigh and Streeter of Enl-
mons over house appropriation bill No.
~, which provided for the construction
of building for School of Forestry and
