Police Protection.

The few remarks quoted from the
mayor today with regard to recent mob
Ilawlessness in this city are called for
Iby the situation. Three or four times
within as many weeks the police have
had to contend with mob violence in
this city. Consequences have not been
serious in any case, but these manlfes-
tations Of the lawless spirit are unusual
in this city and Justify the feeling that
it is up to the police department to as
sert and maintain more perfect control
of the situation. 1t will not do to let
( a lot of lawless fellows in South town or
anywhere else get the idea that they can
handle the police. Some well-cracked
iheads and long workhouse sentences
may be necessary to properly impress
shat idea, but it has got to be impressed,
/ land we are glad that the mayor, while
I ME does not talk excitedly about the
matter, manifests determination to
t.control of the ball.'

SELECT GOOD HOMES
National Society Places Children Only
In the Best.

Mrs. J. Thompson, at the conference
Of the National Children IS Home So
ciety at the Jean Martin Brown Re-
ceiving home, at St. Anthony Park
yesterday, told of the work Of home
finding for children in Minnesota. She
reported instances showing that the So
ciety was very particular about the
selection of homes for little ones, avoid
ing places where parents are too FREQ
in the choice of amusements and have
little regard for the proper observance
Of the Sabbath. The st. Paul home has
lately been overtaxed and some cases
have had to be refused. One, it was
explained, was that of a physician who
wanted the society to take his child
because it made him nervous.
At business meeting of the dele
gates held under the trees at Mime
haha park last evening the following
officers were reelected: President, Rev.
G. B: Henderson, Chicago, Ill; secre-
tary, Rev. II. H. Hart, Chicago, Ill; gen.

A Norwegian View.

To the Editor of The Journal
I wish to reply to a recent state
ment by DR.. Sundbeck with reference
to the relations between. Norway and
did not secure Norway by cession from
the Danish king. The Danish king
could not cede Norway; all he could do
was to renounce his claims to the
throne Of Norway.
Then the Swedes proceeded to Nor
way with an army to take possession
of the country.
In the meantime, the Norwegians had
given themselves constitution and
formed a government Of their oWn.l q,
| This government opposed the Swedes,
who were led by their future king,
Charles XIV. -
The latter saw that it would be, i'm
possible for him to conquer Norway,
and therefore he proposed to the Nor
wegians union with Sweden on an
equal footing.
his acceptance Of their new! co:nst1tu;,
| to rule bly, Then contract, called
Hrigsakt," was entered into between
! the two countries, defining the points
of union, which We're mainly in rela-
ton to foreign affairs.
i Norway had at that time no diplo
matte service, having recently sepa'
rated from Denmark. Sweden, on the
acy and consular service, and Norway
therefore allowed Sweden to attend .tc
this part of the governmental affairs
until it should see fit to establish sucl
institutions Of it's own.
} Up to the present time the diplo
; mats and consuls have been appointed
by the king from citizens Of bot]
countries, and the king has done fairl,
by Norway in the appointments of con
ments of diplomats. This led to SOM
dissatisfaction about twenty years age
and the Norwegians, finding they wer
now able to support diplomacy O
their own, have since tried to max
an arrangement with the Swedes TO
a separation of this branch Of the gov
: eminent. ~
The Swedes, however, are yer
( proud people, and have come into tn

' Norway about how these things shout

The Norwegians insist that tn
+ Swedes should keep their agreement t

themselves, in accordance with tn
rigsakt, and have resented all effort
on the part of the Swedes to retain tn

: : as their repeated efforts to overreac

ternal affairs. This has now come t
a crisis and it remains to be seen hoy

The people Of Norway live in coun

: is hardly a place in the whole king
dom where there is room enough 70
s two armies to battle.
The numerical preponderance of tn
Swedish army will, therefore, not b
of much avail. The war, if such Their
be, will be a guerilla war, somethin
like the Boer war, with only this dill
ference: that the, Norwegians are
more numerous people than the Boer!
and that their antagonist is a niue
u weaker nation than the English.
