RIksoAe DEMANDS REFORMS.
Asks the King to Abolish All Distine

Distinction in rank in Swedish OH.
cial life has incurred the opposition OF
the members of the second chamber OF
the Swedish riksdag, which recently
passed a resolution requesting the
crown to abolish the system outside
the royal court, where there might be
occasion for some system of prece,
dence II this is not possible, his mai
esty is requested to separate the court
rank from the official. This resolution
was passed by vote of 40 to &C. The
negative votes We're not opposed to the
adjustment of class distinctions, but
voted against the alternative PROPOSE
ton, and wanted straight demand for
abandoning official ranks.
The passage of this resolution indi
Gates a strong protest against the for
malism of official society. An elaborate
system of order of precedence prevails
which causes much bitterness and an
noyance without serving any practical
or legitimate purpose.
The riksdag has been very active OF
late, and has taken up number of re.
form propositions The first chamber
has passed a law relieving parish
priests of the duty of keeping the civil
register, and has approved the law

and the fourth is under guard at his
home, where he is dangerously ill.
The principal appears to have been an
engineer named Groenbeck, and his &C.
completes were Ole and John Holten
of Risen. Ole was in the employ of
Chr. Anker as prospector in his ex-
tensive fields. Ole instructed his
brother on the appearance of ore out
groupings and started him out.
Through Groenbeck the claims were
sold to Mr.. Anker. Afterward it was
discovered that the claims already be-
longed to Mr.. Anker.
Arrests were thereupon ordered and
all the men involved were secured.
The money, amounting to 100000 kr,
was found deposited in various banks
and was taken in charge by the po-
lice. A man by the name of KEEL

placed in Jail.

AGAIN THE REINDEER.
Swedish Minister Declares That eru
tally Was Shown.


1t is not unlikely that Sweden and
Norway may have a serious quarrel
over the reindeer and Laps in the
north. On April the Swedish civil
minister was called to the second
chamber to give information as to the
status of the reindeer question, with
particular reference to the charges
that the Norwegian officials had been
extremely brutal toward the Swedish
Laps in driving them and their herds
across the border.
The minister replied that the gov
eminent had received reports indicat.
ing that several Norwegian officials
had been aggressive and brutal, and OF
the strength of the reports had made
a demand on Norway for an explana
ton.
These statements are somewhat al
variance with those made by the same
minister in the course of an interview
in which he intimated that, though the
Norwegian officials had probably been
severe, there was no accession for in
reference, as forage had been poor on
the Norwegian side of the border and
was insufficient for the reindeer at
home, let alone those from Sweden

Fishing stilI Good.

Up to date the cod fisheries in Nor
way have yielded better returns this
season than in any one of the eight
previous years. More than 26,0O0, 900
of cod have already been taken, which
is far in advance of the total catches
of 1905 and 1904, but there were un-
usually poor years. Lofoten has profit
ed the most, whereas in some districts
the results have been poor. Prices are
satisfactory. The herring fisheries
also yield good returns. There are
5.769 boats In the Lofoten feet.

EAGER FOR CORONATION.
Ancient Home Of Norway's King Busy
With Plans,


Trondhjem is getting excited over
the coronation of King Haakon and
Queen Maud, which has been set for
Friday, June %. The city will be the
center of interest for all Europe for
several days and the burghers of the
good old town intend to maintain the
ancient traditions in a worthy man
ner. Almost the entire royal families
of England and Denmark will be pres
ent as we'll as several members of the
imperial house of Germany. Doubt
less all the countries of Europe will
be represented by members of the
reigning houses. The coronation will
bring together one of the most notable
gatherings of royalty and nobility in
a decade and the task of entertaining
the distinguished company would tax
a much larger city than Trondhjem.
Fortunately most of the royal visit
ors will come in their own yachts and
will not be dependent on the hotels.
Were it not for this arrangement the
city would be unable to meet the re-
quirements, for the hotel accommoda-
lions are limited. The Norwegian
storthing ha appropriated 100000 kr.
for the ceremonies and this will re-
lieye Trondhjem considerably. The
proposition of voting $4,000 kr. for re-
storing and furnishing the old bishops
residence os royal residence was
turned down, to the great disappoint-
ment Of the citizens. However, they
have raised $4,000 kr for the purpose
by private subscriptions and promise
that the remainder will be forthcom-
Ing and the "stiftsgaard" will be fur
nished in such an attractive manner
as to tempt the king and queen to re-
turn annually for a short sojourn in
their city.

FOUR GENERATIONS.
King Oscar Made Happy by Great
Grandson.


King Oscars heart must have been
gladdened when the telegram an
nouncing the birth of a great-grandson
reached him in the Riviera. 1t was
his hearts desire to live to see an
heir to his favorite grandson, Prince
Gustaf Adolf, and the venerable mon
arch doubtless set out for home i'm
mediately on the receipt of the glad
tidings. The little prince is Berna-
dotte of the sixth generation and
through his mother, formerly Princess
Margaret of Connaught, is related to
the royal houses Of Great Britain and
Germany He has even the blood of
the Vasa princess of Sweden in his
veins.

Mr.. .Gilbreath explained the intention

A large portion of the membership
of the association consists of real es-

for doing all that is possible to have

Commissioner Gilbreath made some

be issued in due course, together with
the program, the latter not to be too
cumbersome, and one that will likely
ginger up interest among the mem
bers for the fall and winter campaign

The state Democratic convention for
the nomination Of a state ticket will be
held at Minot on Thursday, Aug. 2.
This was decided upon at meeting
of the state Democratic central COM
mittee held at The Commercial club
rooms at Grand Forks. The meeting
was in every way very harmonious
one. Tracy R. Bangs presented Grand
Forks as the proper place for the state
convention, and the desirability of
Minot as "a convention city was pre-.
scented by Mayor D. G. Greenleaf. A
vote resulted in the convention going

to 10 for Grand Forks.
The apportionment provides for a
convention of 414 delegates, two at

committee.
