these schools all that was best and most
aspirational in the life Of the peasantry
and people. The aim of the teacher
was not SO much to impart knowledge
as to stimulate the reflective powers,
so as to arouse in the minds Of their
pupils thoughts on the value and pur-
pose Of life.
The Danes themselves attribute the
marked rise and intellectual develop
ment Of the peasantry and the power
of combination displayed by the tillers
of the soil to the ever increasing in
fuence of the high school movement.
The agriculturists save money and
make sacrifices in order that their sons
and daughters may enjoy the intel
lectual and spiritual culture that the
high schools offer. The only analogous
movement we have in Great Britain is
the burning desire on the part of the
Scotch peasantry and small Scotch farm
ers for education; in England it would
appear difficult to create similar de.
mand among our rural population. This
may be because in the past country
life has not been synonymous with in
tellectual life, except for the rich and
well placed. ~. VI. .. +. .s..f

COL. KRAG DECLARES
FAMOUS GUN is HIS
Inventor of the Rifle that Was Used by the United States
Army Writes to The Journal Denying That the Arm
Was Devised by Another.

That the celebrated Krag-Jorgensen
rifle, which was in use in the United
States army for many years, was not
invented by Major c. w. Bergh, as
stated in magazine article, is simply
attested in a letter just received by
the editor Of TIL e Journal from
Colonel Ole Krag of the Norwegian
army, whose name was given to the
rifle. Colonel Krag is naturally much
disturbed over the erroneous statements
which have been given general circula-
tion and has gone to considerable pains
to secure formal statements from the
son and brother Of Major Bergh, who
as far as is known was not in the least
degree interested in arms, but in mill
tary engineering and particularly in
road construction. The letter Of Col
oneI Krag is as follows:
To the Editor Of The Journal.
~ A friend has sent me the Minneapolis
Journal of April 20, where is told
taken up from a magazine-that the
late Major Bergh is the real inventor
Of the Krag-J orgensen rifle, and that
he had given his secret to me as token
of friendship, which secret I had abused.
Allow me in your paper to character
lie this story as untrue and to main
tain that I and the now deceased Mr..
@Jorgensen are the real inventors Of the
said rife.
@~~ Major Bergh was a great constructor
Of roads, but he didn It occupy himself
Bergh died 1878; the Krag Jorgensen
rifle patents were taken out 1890. These
facts ought to be sufficient to show
the atsurdity Of denoting Nh. Bergh
as the inventor of the Krag Jorgensen
rifle Notwithstanding this will refer
to the following statements from a son
of Major Bergh, Robert Bergh, United
brother Of Major Bergh still living in
: Christiania.
Copy of a letter from Consul Robert
Bergh to Colonel Ole Krag.)
Christiania Norway
, Dear Colonel:-Referring to the article in the
Minneapolis journal of the Goth of April, last,
headed Bergh real inventor of the deadly Krag-
Jorg. I beg to state that my father ajor
Vel. Director G. W. Rergh. far I know,
, had nothing do with the invention of said
rifle, 1 have at least never heard my. father
mention anything or say anything which could
indicate that he invented helped to invent
said, rifle. l am dear colonel,
Yours very truly,
Robert I. s. Bergh
United States Consul.
(Translation of a declaration from
Lieutenant Colonel Anthem Bergh.)
: On request declare that I don't know that
: my brother the late veidirector Christian VIII
helm Bergh. who died 1873, had any knowledge
4sof the construction of for the techni-
calities Of arms. -Anthon Bergh,
Lieutenant Colonel.
7 hope that other journals and maya.
zines, which have taken up the said
article, also will give place for this let,

DIGGING FOR IRON.

Great Activity In Various Parts OF
4 New Norway.
Iron mining will be big industry in
Norway next year as new claims are
being opened in several parts Of the
country. At Oestvaag island in Nord,
land, Norwegian-Dutch company is
sinking two shafts, and is building a
wharf and railway line to connect with
the mines. The locomotive has already
arrived and next season the force of
100 men will be greatly increased. The
ore contains so per cent iron and is
free from sulphur, phosphorus and other
undesirable elements.
The immense fields in Cumberland
valley were visited by numerous rep
resentatives Of the big iron industries
Of England and Germany and if the
prospects are fulfilled it will become
one of the largest fields in the world.
There is much activity in the vicin-
ity of Arendal. Carl Lundergreen Of
Stockholm has invested heavily In
mines in that district. He has only 70
men atswork now, but this force will be
greatly increased. A French company
has secured two claims In this district
