The Logan Republican. [volume] (Logan, Utah) 1902-1924, 1905-05-20
The Norwegians Celebrate
independence Day Observed In a Very
Enjoyable Way Wednesday.

The "Norsk" people OF Logan had a
very pleasant time Wednesday even
ing in their celebration OF Norway:
Day Of Independence. Though the
evening was decidedly stormy, by the
time the program was begun the
Thatcher pavilion contained goodly
number Of Scandinavians, and before
the evenings pleasures ended as many
as three hundred were in the hall.
Beneath the balcony provided for
the orchestra. temporary rostrum
had been built and over this monster
American and Norwegian flags were
draped, while around the base Of the
balcony was display of bunting On
the rostrum palms formed the decora-
tion, and half hidden behind these sat
Master Of Ceremonies J. A. Hendrick.
son, President W. G. Parkinson, Of the
Hyrum Stake, Bishops Anderson and
Skanchy, of Logan, II. A Petersen,
Mrs. l.. A. Ostien, Mrs. John Broburg
and Minnie Petersen. The audience
was seated around the sides Of the
room and in the center where chairs
had been placed.
The Thatcher orchestra rendered a
rousing selection, after which Bishop
Anderson offered prayer. 1t would
have been hard for the most aggressive
anti-Mormon In the State to have
found in the bishops prayer anything
disloyal TO this country. He prayed
that the people might be loyal to this
government and flag; that they might
learn to appreciate their blessings
under this peaceful government and
to love the liberty that is theirs.
This prayer is mentioned particularly
because 1t was the only thing on the
program until the last number that
the writer could understand.
Following this Mrs. Broberg render
ed selection on the piano, and the
applause did not stop until she seated
herself again at the piano.
Bishop Skanchv then gave an adj
dress of welcome. We take the word
OF Others for that. He talked few
minutes, and the audience applauded.
Miss Minnie Petersen sang two solos,
these as unintelligible to the writer
as the words Of the speakers. But
they were enjoyable, nevertheless, and

I the hearty applause OF those who did
understand was proof that she gave
them something that pleased them
immensely. Her second was a very
pretty thing, well done.
". A. Petersen reviewed the Incl
dents that led up to Norway's indie
pendence, and his rapid speech, de-
livered emphatically, with plentiful
gesticulations would have convinced
anyone that it was patriotic address.

dcred a selection in Norwegian that
appealed to all. The audience insist.
ed on another and the gentlemen sang
when the Swallows Homeward Fly.
Both were very enjoyable. The club
is directed by Prof. Fogleberg.
Following this, Mrs. A. L. Ostien
read poem in Norwegian that
brought forth applause.
Then came that other number the
writer could fathom. DR.. John A.
Widtsoe on exceedingly short notice
consented to take the place on the
program allotted to Senator Reed
Smoot, who had wired that he was un-
avoidably detained in the southland.
DR.. Widtsoe told OF "The Norwegians
In America and made very happy
address. He told of now Lief Erick-
sen had discovered America 1000
years after Christ, fully 500 years be-
fore Columbus came over, and told
the people of statues in Boston and
Newport erected In honor of Erickson.
After detailing the early settlement
Of Massachusetts, by the Norsemen he
said that some Of them married In
dian women, others died, and the
Norsemen vanished. He said that
some people attributed the bad traits
of the Indians to their marriage with
the Norsemen. The first influx of
Norwegians to this country came in
about 1925. At the present time
there are probably as many Norwc-
gians in America as In Norway. DR..
Widtsoe said the Norsk people are a
liberty loving people and fought for
liberty thousand years. They have
many characteristics common to
Americans. The Norwegian makes
a good politician, and it is true that
in the United States they have had

Read and Reflect.

Who says Logan is not manufac-
turing town?
The manufacturing of high grade
shoe polish is her latest venture.
"Jet Black Manufacturing Co..,
Logan, Utah. How does this sound?
Yet, such is the name of the COM
pany that has already commenced
operations in our city and county.
Our agents are going to call on you
and sell you bottle Of the best shoe
polish on the market today. Don't
turn them away on the plea that sit is
made at home and therefore no good. "
1t Is high time we quit. this business,
as 1t Is disastrous to all Of US.
We say our polish Is the best on the
market today and we mean tour
reasons for saying so are the following:
LIST. 1t gives a most brilliant and
natural polish. End. 1t takes less
effort to apply IL, no rubbing what
ever being necessary. Bird. It lasts
longer; it is absolutely waterproof. Ten
minutes after IT is applied water can
not hurv it. 4th. 1t is less injurious
to leather than any other polish. 5th.
1t will turn tan or white shoe into
a beautiful patent leather In less than
80 minutes. And thousand other
reasons; but advertising costs money.
Watch for our agents. II the polish
is not as represented please return the
same to jet Black Manufacturing
Co., Logan, Utah, and your money
will be refunded in good gold coin.

MAYOR M'CLELLAN's DUTY.

Mayor Mcclellan won considerable commenda-
ton by his announcement through his counsel,
ex-Judge Parker, the other day that all bis ef-
forts would be given not to resisting, but to en-
forcing the law and securing an honest count
The situation which has arisen In the Krup case
puts upon the Mayor the task Of making good
that pledge Here is q serious crime. growing
out of attempts to give Illegal votes to Mr.. Nc
Clellan. That crime is clearly the work Of men
high up in the Tammsny organization. What Is
Mayor Mcclellan going to do about It! Ii ne
has any power over the organization whose cam
didate he was, he will force into the open the
men who originally induced Krup TO vote Illegal
ly, who put up $1,000 for his bail and who
spirited him away from the Jurisdiction or the
court for the patent purpose OF concealing thelr
own crimes. If he has not enough influence TO
purge Tammany Hall Of these men and force
them to take their punishment, then, as self
respecting man and a good citizen, he must at
once and for aIl time definitely break with this
band Of criminals.
The Krup case Is not one of an individual
violation of the election law. It is not one
which Mayor Mcclellan can say does not con-
Germ him. We will not argue that Krup is only
one of multitude and that the discovery OF his
offence implies that large fraudulent vote was
cast for Mr. Mcclellan We ask Mr. Mcclellan
not to arouse himself over the fraudulent votes
NAH
own party to prevent the punishment Of fraudu-
lent voting and the exposure of those who ar
ranged it. That Tammany Hall is engaged In
such a conspiracy cannot be doubted. This
penniless tramp for whom somebody put up
$1,000 cash bail, with the evident expectation
that 1t would be instantly forfeited, could not
on his own account, have raised the price OF q
meal There was somebody behind him-some-
body interested to the extent Of putting up
$4,000 for protecting him. or rather for prevent
ing him from telling what he knew. In his be-
half able lawyers were engaged, among them
a man who was a few years ago the Tammany
candidate for District Attorney.
At this time we shall not attempt to charao-
terize the conduct of these lawyers who are try
ing to shield the persons whose money and
ingenuity were devoted to getting this man out
of the way. Their professional conduct ts
fair subject for the consideration Of the courts
and the Bar Association What at present we
wish to emphasize is the clear evidence of an
organized conspiracy among persons high in
Tammany Hall to conceal evidence of crimes
against the ballot and obstruct the work of the
Attorney General, and to ask Mayor Mcclellan
how, in view Of his pledges, he can have any
part or lot with Tammany, and how he can fail
to come actively to the assistance Of the au-
thorities seeking to expose and punish its crimes.
New-York tribune., 1905-11-19
THE PLAGUE OF WORDS.

President Roosevelts warning against exces-
sive letter writing In the government service is
timely and should be needed. No one who studies
the methods even of private business can fall TO
be impressed with the tendency to excessive cor
respondence. In the government service, OF
course, any such tendency is exaggerated. 1t
falls In with the temper Of the bureaucrat, and
goes along with the excessive printing OF docu-
ments and an exaggeration by officials of the I'M
portance Of the details Of their own business.
We hope the President will be restraining
influence on the flood of words both In CORE
spondence and in books, but we fear the times
are against him. They offer fatal facilities FOR
verbal exuberance. Books are published to-day
In vast numbers, less because authors have any
thing to say than because printing Is easy and
cheap and the presses have to be kept at work
So too the typewriters click out folio after folio
In public Offices, not because there Is any real
reason for that amount Of writing, but because
the machinery for producing 1t Is at hand. It
Is an old saying that traffic grows with the IA
ciities for handling traffic, and so words multi
ply with the facilities for getting them recorded
When all letters had to be written labor1ously
In long hand they were confined somewhere with
In the realm of legitimate need At least useless
COPIES of papers merely incidental to pending
matters were not made and transmitted In the
mere spirit of red tape. Now 1t is so easy 10
have all sorts of things, important and unlm-
portant, clicked off that the bureaucrat cannot
resist the temptation. But he is not the only
victim of it Probably every lawyers office to-
day produces more documents in proportion to
the actual business transacted than ever before.
The courts complain that they are overwhelmed
with voluminous records on the appeal of cases
of no more Importance than those which courts
of former days considered with a record Of a
few brief pages before them
The stenographer. the typewriter and the
printing press invaluable agents Of civiliza-
ton, but they have their drawbacks They
have inundated us with plague of words and
we wish that curtailment in the government
service could be but the beginning Of reform.
