though, it is reported, he thinks the mat
ter may have to be settled by war
In contemplation of this solution of
the problem, it may be in place to refer
to the comparative strength of the two
nations. An article in the London Spec
tator phrases it: 1.-The Swedes outnum-
Der the Norwegians two to one, are much

military pride which helps so to make

To Offset Sweden's marked advan-
tages, the character of the inhabitants
of the smaller country is brought for
ward, we are called upon to keep in
mind the fact that the Norwegians are
Such sturdy, intelligent, Independent
people. An authority, Mulhall. speaks
of them as the most Independent people
in the world. The above-quoted article
in the Spectator, deprecating the Swed-
en-NOrway break says: Though we
admire the Norwegians as a people who
are among the few capable of self-gov-
eminent, We think them entirely wrong
in stalking their own future and the
peace of the world. upon the struggle
for dignity which will bring them so
little reward"
When news came that Norway had an
nounced its withdrawal from the union.
and the news was accompanied by word
of the inclination of state to make
overtures towards placing as ruler over
Norway either Bernadotte prince or a
son of the royal house of Denmark.
doubtless the first thought of the Ameri
can reader was, Why another king: why
not republic at once? To this may be
made answer that Norway feels the need
of the support of the European nations.
and appreciates the probability that
monarchy and empire would look ask
ance on Norwegian republic. would
be more inclined to the conservatism of
a monarchy-monarchy and empire not
desiring any spread of republicanism.

Washington has been the victim of the
apartment house craze. More than half
a hundred of these buildings, ranging
from rows of three-story apartments to
the highest limit allowed under the reg
ulations, have been built, and what is
more, every inch of their space has been
filled The wonder to old Washington
ans is where the people come from to fill
these great tenements. There are no
manufacturing plants of any Importance
whatever within the District of Co
lumbia, and the government service
extends but slowly, and yet the per-
centage of increase in the population
of Washington keeps pace with that of
great, growing, manufacturing places.
Washington is not skyscraper town,
and the authorities have wisely reduced
the height to which buildings can be
erected. Eight stories is about the lin
it, although on the wider streets one
or two more stories can be added with
out violation of the regulations. One
of the building regulations adopted some
time ago prevents the erection of build
ings to greater height than the width
of the streets on which they are To-
Gated. Even this regulation is further
restricted in the neighborhood of pub
lie buildings. by requiring edifices to

NAMED nevertheless.
1t is presumed that each state will
present statues of her most distin-
guished people. 1t is not so difficult for
the older states to do this as from their
long history it is not difficult to select
two prominent characters. Of the
younger states, however, there are very
few that could at this time furnish
statues of men who would for all time
to come represent the best of their citi-
zens. 1t has been suggested that there
should be some regulation as to the
character of the men who are to be made
immortal in this great hall of fame. The
States have been invited to send any,
states that yet have the privilege of
contributing to the hall shows that some
queer characters might lind a place in
this collection.
1t has been suggested, for example,
that Utah might send a statue of Brig
ham Young. 1t can be easily imagined

ment to some of the rather questionable
political history in his state. Virginia
still has one statue due her, and her good
people have proposed Robert E. Lee,
but that proposition was vetoed by the
governor of the state. Mississippi might
send statue of Jefferson Davis, or Ken
lucky might claim that privilege, as
Davis was born in the latter state Abra-
ham Lincoln was also born in Kentucky,
and the unique situation might be pre-
sented of that state sending statues Of
both these great characters. Other
states might contribute memorials Of
their great men which would revive ami
mosities and create bad sectional feel
ings. 1t has been suggested that con-
gress should guard against just such
possibilities.

esting spots in the very interesting and
historic capitol building. In this semi
circular room are placed statues of dis
tinguished citizens of the country. each
state OF the union being entitled to two
such memorials. The hall is getting
fairly well filed up and the annual house
cleaning in the big building involves
considerable work in keeping the stat
ues presentable.
Every once in awhile critic with ar
tistlc temperament goes into Mysteries
over the conglomerate mass of marble
and bronze efigies that have been ac-
cumulated in this hall A demand is
then made that congress establish some
uniform rule or regulation regarding the
size and character of the statues. The
artlstlc, however, never appeals very
strongly to congressman, and as the
states themselves furnish the statues
no disposition has been evinced to in
terpose any fixed law that would de-
hne the character of the art to be en-
ployed on these memorials The old
question of states rights hobs up con-
ven1ently when a proposition is made
to have congress furnish a model for
the states, and in consequence statuary
hall is being filled with marble and
bronze figures from a three-quarters
length and a bust to full heroic size.
There is no doubt that some of the
figures that have been contributed to
this hall of heroes are monstrosities,
but the finicky visitor can leave these
for the contemplation of the less ar
tlst1c and enjoy the real beauties of such
marble figures as those of Pere Mar
quette, which Wisconsin has contrib
uted or that of Miss Francis Willard,
the only statue of a woman in the cap
itol, which Illinois has presented as rep
resenting the highest type of citizen-
ship from that state.

A thorough investigation has been made
to ascertain the probability of petroleum
being found in paying quantities and
also to locate coal fields. A preliminary
report of these examinations has been
published and now final report from
George T. Martin, under the title of The
Petroleum Fields of the Pacific Coast
of Alaska, with an account of the Behr-
ing River Deposits is available and
contains some very interesting and val
liable information
In his investigations Mr. Martin dis
covered indications of petroleum in the
Controller bay, the Cook inlet and the
Coal bay regions. While it is too soon
to predict an important future for the
regions as a petroleum producer, Mr.
Martins Investigations show that fur
Their prospecting is justifiable, and that
the regions may yet be a source of illum-
mating oil. A few wells have been
drilled and the petroleum secured is
clearly refining oil of the same general
nature as the product of the Pennsyl-
vania oil fields. Like the Pennsylvania
petroleum, it contains high proper
ton of the more volatile compounds
| and a paraffine base and contains al
most no sulphur
The best coal field discovered is on the
Behring river, 25 miles inland from
Controller bay. 1t is the best coal yet
discovered on the Pacific coast of North
America. The field, however, is re-
stricted as it includes only about 12O
harder bituminous Goals of the east.
Some have compared it with the anthra-
cite, but it is doubtful whether much of
it could be sized so as to compete with
anthracite coal for domestic use. It
seems, however, to be of superior
quality of bituminous.

industries, but it is now IN fair way
to become as popular with summer
tourists as portions of the Maine coast.
Government officials are contributing
very largely to this feature of Alaska.
Since the wonderful gold discoveries
which turned the attention of the whole
world to that northwestern corner of the
continent and the United States became
aware that she had possession valu-
able for other things than seal skins,
the statesmen at Washington have been
paying a good deal of attention to
Alaska.
For several years past it has been the
regular thing for bodies of congressman
to make tours of Alaska. The bound
airy dispute was the first excuse for this
delightful excursion along the most pic
turesque coast in the world. Congress
men felt it was necessary to inform
themselves at first hand of conditions in
that region and to locate with their own
eyes what they believed to be the real
boundary between the British posses
sions and Alaska. The tales these
statesmen Adventures brought back of
the wonderful scenery of the Alaskan
coast and the unique experiences they
had in that little-known country in
spired others with the desire to make
the trip. This summer quite number
of the most prominent members of the
house and senate, including Speaker
Cannon, will learn of the Alaska wond-
ers by personal visit.
The interest that congressman have
taken in that country and the efforts of
the government in its development have
attracted great attention, and the con-
sequence is that Alaska seems to be a
very desirable place for American in
vestments. Experiments in agriculture
in fisheries and other industries have
proven that this big corner of North
America that we purchased for 81 ,000,-
coo in 1867 will prove one of the richest
investments ever made by the govern
ment.
