TIE NORSE ELECTIONS.

Norway is now having its first general cleo
tlons since Il became an entirely independent
kingdom for new Storthing which is to meet
on October II. They began on August and will
continue until August &C. and then there will be-
If necessary, supplementary elections on Sep
tember 9, for securing absolute majorities in
such districts as may have given nothing but
pluralities in the first elections The elections
are proceeding with the order and decorum and
also with the intense earnestness which are
characteristic Of that enlightened people, and
the new StOrthing will doubtless be truly repre-
sentative of the Norwegian nation
In general the electorate is divided into two
major parties. the Conservative and the Liberal
known in the StOrthing as the Right and the
Left These existed in much the same form be-
fore the separation from Sweden. There is less
difference between them than between the cor
responding parties in most other European cOun-
tries, however, and indeed there Is no differ
ence which is fundamental, or essential. Most
Of the Liberals are inclined toward granting full
suffrage to women on the same terms as to men
and most of the Conservatives are opposed to t.
The Liberals also favor a system of state insur-
ance against disabling infirmities, which the
Conservatives regard as of doubtful practicable
ity. third difference, In which perhaps more
interest is taken than in either of the Others is
over the matter of language. The Liberals
largely favor the official adoption of the "Maal"
or popular vernacular of Norway, while the Con-
servatives uphold the use of the literary Ian
guage, which is really OF Danish origin. But It
is evident that not one of these differences is
such as to arouse any very dangerous party
rivalries
On the question Of Norwegian independence
and separation from Sweden the two major
parties are in perfect accord and so they are
on the fundamental question of national policy
There are few radicals who regret" the es-
tablishment OF Norwegian kingdom and would
have preferred republic Perhaps some OF
them will hencefOrth agitate for a republic
There are also some socialists who would over
throw kingdom and republic alike and establish
a commune. But these are so few as TO be in

island and no denial Of Cuba's ownership. The
general understanding was that the Isle OK
Pines was thus TO be held in an unsettled status
pending the negotiation of q satisfactory treaty,
granting coaling stations, etc, TO the united
States. On May 90 1902, our occupation came
to an end. In his farewell letter to the Fresl-
dent and Congress of Cuba, General Wood, by
direction OF the President of the United States.
said: "It is understood by the United States that
s.the present government of the Isle of Pines
''wiIl continue as de facto government pend
ing the settlement of the title to said Island
''by treaty." etc To this President Estrada
Palma replied: "It is understood that the Isle
''of Pines is to continue de factO under the Ju-
"rsdiction Of the government of the Republic
"of Cuba, subject TO such treaty as may be en-
'tered into" etc 1t does not appear that Cen
eral Wood reported this difference Of under
standings TO the Washington government Ger
tainIy no action was taken regarding 1T, but the
Cuban view, as expressed by President Estrada
Palma, was permitted TO prevail. The Ameri-
can government was withdrawn from Cuba. in
cluding the Isle of Pines, and Cuba, including
the Isle of Pines, was left to the government
and control Of its people Since that time the
Cuban Republic has been administering the af-
fairs OF the Isle Of Pines, just as it has those
Of all the departments of Cuba.
Finally, treaty has been negotiated between
the United States and Cuba, in accordance with
the provisions Of the "Platt Amendment" for
'the adjustment of the title TO the Isle Of Pines,
and that treaty explicitly vests such title in
the Republic of Cuba, where it historically and
logically belongs. That treaty is now pending
before the Senate of the United States awaiting
ratification which it should have received long
ago, and which it is earnestly to be hoped and
expected It will promptly receive as soon as the
Senate again comes into session.

THE NATIONAL IRRIGATION CONGRESS-.

Great interest attaches to the fourteenth ma
tOnaI irrigation congress. which will be held
ut Boise, Idaho. September 8 10 s. The tremen-
dous growth of the irrigation movement since
the passage OF the Reclamation act in 1902
gives the subject to be discussed an importance
which could not have been fOreseen four years
ego.
This act provides that all moneys received
from the sale Of public lands in the states and
territories west of the Missouri River, includ-
ing Oklahoma Except the fees and commissions
due registers and receivers and the per cent
set aside for educational and other purposes),
shall be a special fund TO be used in the exami-
nation and survey and maintenance OF irriga-
tlOn works for the reclamation OF arid and
semi-arid lands in those states and territories
Thirty million dollars has been thus accumu-
lated, and plans for the irrigation Of nearly two
million acres have been completed. It is est-
lated that the total amount Of land which can
thus benefited is one hundred million acres
/ which nearly ten million acres are under
ltivatiOn. The completion OF the work which
Reclamation Service aspires to accomplish
tth some aid from private enterprise. will. it
as hoped, increase the national wealth $1,000
100000. Bona fide settlers in tie irrigated re-
gions pay for the OF the water in ten an
nual fnstalments, the price varying in proper
tiOn 10 the difficulty OF construction and the
amount OF water available.
Bplee is Well SltO0reQ Tor the scene OF DELHI
erations on irrigation questions. Idaho fur
nishes object lessons in the work of the rec
lamatiOn service hardly to be matched else
where in the country. including the develop
'snent Of the ShOshOne Falls power, which, when
completed, will produce more electrical units
than Niagara now does, and the Twin Falls
project where water was turned on a little
more than year ago, and where in one hun
dred days reapers were harvesting the first crop.
Tor the execution Of which the government has
appropriated SlO0O0OOO will be examined by
the delegates.
Irrigation is a great subject, and there is
nothing small about the plans which some Of
the delegates are making for its future. Not
content with the measure Of government aid
which il has thus far received. they are plan
ming an agitation 10 secure Il direct ApprOpria-
tiOn from Congress of S1O0OO0OOO TO supple

conceivable that such drain upon the resources
