WON'T TAKE EXAMINATIONS.
Commissioner Reperta That Few Demo cratic southerness Want Fea-
 eral Jobs.

Washington, Aug 1S.--A recent ex- animation made by Commissioner Greene of the civil commission In North Carolina, Tennessee and Kentucky re- veals the fact that those who are not Republicans refuse almost without ex- ception to take the civil service examl- nation in those States.
 He attributes this to a general con tention that the federal officials belong to the dominant political party. In the Danville, Ky, district out of 17S persons who arc known to have taken the examinations since the inau- euration of Mckinley In 1ss1 only two were Democrats. Commenting on this Mir. Greene said: Tn other sections of the country. a different state of things prevails. Thus In Phil- adelphia, it was found that over one third of those who passed the exami- nations in the postoffice for given year were not Republicans. Under the ruling made by President Roosevelt. Tn that case, in the language Of civil ser vice rules, discrimination among those who have passed is prohibited and in practice systematic discrimination is impossible. Without 6 general partic- ipation by the public of all classes and parties In the competitive examination held for filling the positions the intent of the law as to the non-partisan char acter of appointments cannot be car ried out. If, however. there Is general participation in Kentucky, Tennessee and North Carolina. which prevails in other States. the civil service commits sion will undertake to see that ap- pointments are made in the classified service without regard to the politics of eligibles.
 Grading of papers is all done in Washington. The examiners who do xxy0r nf discovering the identity or politics of candidates

Chrtstiana, Aug. 13.-The Norwegian people in a referendum taken today pronounced in favor of the dissolution of the union with Sweden with remark able, though not unexpected unanimity.

In Chritiana and other cities the total population turned out, every one wearing long streamers of the national oolors and pictures of Premier Michalsen.

The next official step will be taken after the Storthing meets on Aug. 21, when the result of the plehis- cite will be known to Sweden through the Swedish Riksdag. The Storthing will repeat the request that the Riks- dag declare the Riksdag imperative and the union dissolved.
 The Storthing will also express a willingness to negotiations concern ing the details of dissolution. It is the earnest desire of Norway to con clude the disolution amicably. Nor way will never retPact, but everything will be done to meet with wishes of Sweden If peace depends upon abol- ishing the forts, they will be abolished.

PEACE WITH THE YAQUIs.
Indians Demand Permanent Farms of
 Mexican Government.

Mexico City, August 13.--It is report ed on the best of authority that the Yaaui Indians of Sonora, tired of the long disastrous warfare carried on against the government are now asking peace and that negotiations are. actual iy being carried on looking to that much desired end.
 The war against the Yaquis has done incalculable damage to the State of So- nora and has retarde the development of its resources to a greater extent than is generally believed. IL is un- derstood that the peace conference which has been called to meet at Ures, will result in a settlement. The claims of the Indians are that some years ago they were given lands to own and culti- vate and that after they had reclaimed inc wild lands and put them into cul- tivation they were told that mistake had been made in the survey and that they would have to accept other lands which they did without protest only thev had the same thing happen to them the second time. It Is now be- Iicved that they will be statisfed if tbev are given land where they can live and cultivate their crops with the aesurance that their possession of the land will never be interrupted.
