LUMBER GOES UP AGAIN
ADVANCE JUST AGREED ON Gov
ERs MOST STAPLE ITEMS so
CENTS TO 81 THE RAISE.

Prices of white pine lumber have
been generally advanced so cents to
81 a thousand, as result Of an all
day meeting Of lufnbermen yesterday
at the West hotel. The attendance at
tho meeting included the members of
the price list committee of the Missis-
sippi Valley Lumbermen 8 association.
also those Of the Wisconsin Valley
Lumbermen's association, which is
closely affiliated. These two commit
tees conferred for the purpose Of har-
monizing their price lists, and the two
were drought as. nearly in accord as
possible, considering the varying
weights of lumber manufactured in
their respective territories.
In this process Of harmonizing an
almost general advance was made by
the Mississippi valley mills. All dimen-
sion lumber was raised ST thousand,
and the staple sizes Of inch stock were
advanced 80 cents to 81, according
to the quantities of stock on hand. An
advance 10 prices was forecasted at
the association meeting Aug. l5, when
the report of Secretary Rhodes showed
the stocks 200,000,0O0 feet lighter
AUG. i than a year previous. No ac-
ton was taken, however, until after
harvest. The big crop reports satisfy
manufacturers~ that there will be q
heavy demand for lumber in the coun-
try districts this fall and next spring,
and they have already raised prices
without waiting for the association Is
action. The work of the committee
has been merely for the purpose of
bringing the association list in line
with present market prices

Stockholm, Sweden, Aug. 31.-Karl-
stad, a town in the province of Varm-
land in thes northwest Of Sweden, will
be the Portsmouth of the north for the
next fortnight. There the delegates
from Sweden and Norway meet today
to discuss, and, as we hope, to agree
about the conditions which Sweden has
made for asserting to the dissolution
Of the union The delegates nomi-
mated by the Swedish government are
four members of the same government,
namely, Premier Mr.. Lundeberg, the
foreign minister, Count Wachtmeister,
and Messrs. Hammarskiold and Staff.
The Norwegian government has elected
its premier, Mr.. Nicholson, its foreign
minister, Mr.. Lovland, an ex-minister,
Mr.. Vogt, and the president Of the
storthing, Mr.. Berner. The choice
seems very good, because from both
sides are sent men Of great influence as
well as with great responsibility.
The choice of Karlstad as meeting
place is also good. In the Act OF
Union, which is now to be cancelled
Karlstad is mentioned as the place
where delegates from both countries
should meet in case necessity should
arise to elect new king.

guilty of embezzling a $l5 mileage
book from R. e. Briscoe, manager Of
the Opportunity company. A motion
for arrest Of Judgment was argued and
submitted today. This is the second

$50 and costs for beating a board bill.
He paid the fine, but will appeal the

The Proportional System.

This end they have been trying to
gain by introducing an electoral reform
with a proportional system, which
would 1guard the rights Of the minori-
ty. But as this new system would
be applied only to the second cham
Der, leaving the first undisturbed in it's
present reactionary state, it would only
make matters worse. It would create
a reactionary minority in the second
chamber, which together with the over
whelming reactionary crowd in the first
chamber would in those questions,
where both chambers vote together,
quite outvote the liberals. And among
these questions is the budget
While preaching the justice Of such a
representation, where the rights Of
the minority were guarded the re-
formers in the first chamber have al
together forgotten to look after their
own house. A really just reform Of
this kind must embrace both chambers
and if SO, touch at the very founda-
tion Of the first, the election Of which
is based on a most ridiculously unjust
property qualified vote, thru which a
highly taxed member Of any commune
ty can outvote all the rest.

Norwegian Question Inopportune.

Often their work for internal reforms
has been hampered by the split the
Norwegian question, has occasioned
in the liberal ranks. And never has
the split been so apparent and SO mop
perfume as now. The general elections
for the next. triennial period, 19o6-19os,
are just beginning. The principal ques-
ton before the electors would in any
other case have been the franchise ques-
ton.
You know how the present franchise
is limited to about 100000 of the L.
100000 adult men in Sweden. Reform
of the franchise has been the burning
question with US for more than twenty
years and only the stubborn resistance
Of the hopelessly conservative first
chamber has prevented it. We had,
thru never-ceasing energetic work.
gone SO far that the first chamber had
been forced to admit the necessity Of a
reform of some kind. But, naturally
enough, their instinct of elf-preserva-
tion made them try to make this reform
as ineffective as DOSsible ~. s@

Division Among the Liberals.

~
Naturally the liberals have fought
this so-called reform tooth and nail
and succeeded in throwing out gov
eminent proposal Of it the last two
sessions. If the coming election had
been fought only on this issue, there
is no doubt that a decided majority
for real franchise-reform without any
conservative guarantees would have
been returned to the second chamber.
But now, for which time in our politi-t
cal history, the Norwegian question has
come as godsend to our reactionaries.
Altho ali politicians know that those
members to be elected now viii have
nothing to do with the settlement Of
the union question, as this must be set
tiled before the end Of this year and
most likely will be over before another,
month, whereas the newly elected
members only count their mandate from
the beginning Of next year, those who
fish in troubled waters have put out
their rods and lines to try to bring to
shore some big hauls in the shape Of
victories over real franchise formers.
The cry has, Of course, beenat don e

Danger Of Much Fort Building.

In any case, even'if refusal on Nor
way s part should result only in the
breaking off Of the negotiations and in
Sweden Is refusal to acknowledge Nor
way. as an independent state, the Nor
Wegian' forts being. left as, they are, we
would enter on period Of fort building
here in Sweden, like that in Norwav-S-
which would bring both IS countries,
especially Norway, to the verge ,of
financial as well as moral ruin. One
must also remember that. the Swedish.
demand for dismantling these forts,
erected in the last eight years, with the
direct intent Of being defense against
conjectural assault from Sweden, is
accompanied by a Swedish proposal for
a neutral zone on both sides of the
fronFier; where. no forts should be
built in future. No reasonable per-
son can see that this condition is any
thing but an entirely sensible one and
easily acceptable. to Norway without
her national honor being hurt in the
least way. 0 xs

desired to do justice to Norway, de-

tion and they can do nothing to hinder

Swamped in a Cave.

CUMBERLAND, Nh, July 29.-Rey c. L. z.
Cartwright, Wesley Wiley, Misses Irma and
Ethel Dick and Frances Cupp narrowly es-
capped death while exploring Bear Cave, along
the Baltimore & Ohio railroad, above Rock
wood. While far back in the cave mountain
stream suddenly broke as the result of the
heavy storm raging without. The small stream
in the cave was suddenly swollen TO torrent.
The five sought safety on narrow ledge.
The water continued 10 rise and soon they
confronted a new danger in the rocks and
stones which fell about them. When one
particular rock came smashing from the roof
close to where they we're huddled together
they decided to take chances on reaching the
mouth of the cave. The men dropped into
the water first and helped the girls down
The water reached to their waists and was
often deeper. BY grasping hands they were
kept from being swept from their feet. After
they emerged from the cave lightning struck
a tree and filed the mouth of the cave with
tons of earth and rock. If they had been a
few minutes later their escape would have
been cut off. They were unable to start back
toward home until after dark on account of
the danger from falling trees. Though drench
ed and chilled from exposure none suffered
serious effects from the experience.
