A Mrs. Graz has been visiting

she is reported as soliciting funds
for work for children, in other
places as for a rescue home for

has revealed the fact that she is
not the representative of airy

name of charity. She conducts
a private lyingin place where
women are taken for pay. There
is nothing Of the character of a

people. For information con

try of his birth, Denmark, under the
dominion of which Norway remained
for four hundred years. Six other
Haakons have ruled Norway in years
past when the NorSemen were free.
The first thing King Haakon will be
expected to do is to develop Nor.
wegian shipping and maritime trade.
The tinder that started the quarrel be-
tween Norway and Sweden was a de-
mand for a separate consular service
Now she will have her own consuls.
Free to act independently of Swe-
den, Norway will now have a chance
to stride forward, making, it is be-
lleved, far greater progress than her
neighbor. The people of the United
States can testify to the admirable at
tributes of such NorMegians as come
to our shores and make their homes
with us; they are industrious and
make the best of citizens. 1t is un-
derstood to be the aim of the new
King to try to keep as many of this
Industrious class at home, Offering
them inducements in the way of estab-
fishing new industries. In a short time
he hopes by this method to cause a
wave OF prosperity to sweep over the
entire kingdom.
DIR. Fridtjef Nansen, the famous Are
tic explorer was largely responsible
for the movement that caused Norway
to seek King in the person of Prince
Charles of Denmark. Many Americans
had hoped that the new King would
select DR.. Nansen as Norway's first
minister to the limited States, but it
seems that he has baen chosen to rep-
resent Norway at the London court.

enforced its growth would have been i'm
possible.
1t is often asserted in defense of large
holdings that, through the operation of
enlightened selfishness, the land SO held
will eventually be put to its best use.
Whatever theoretical considerations may
support this statement, in practice it is
almost universally untrue. Hired labor
on the farm can not compete with the
man who owns and works his land, and if
it could the owners of large tracts rarely
have the capital to develop them ef-
fectively.
Although there IS q tendency to SUBJ
divide large holdings in the long run, yet
the desire for such holdings is so strong
and the belief in their rapid increase in
value so controlling and so widespread
that the speculative motive governs: and
men go to extremes before they will SUBJ
divide lands which they themselves are
not able to utilize.
The fundamental fact that characterizes
the present situation is this: That the
number of patents issued is increasing
out OF all proportion to the number of
new homes,

nature well fitted to rule over the stub

this fact alone will make him popular

SO enforced as to give the settler reason
aDie a,ie. change nee he has settled, prospered,
more complete development and larger
prosperity than where land monopoly
fiourishes. Nearly everywhere the large
landowner has succeeded in monopo-
lizing the best tracts, whether of timber
or agricultural land. There has been
some. outcry against this condition
Yet the lack of greater protest is signifi-
cant. II is TO be explained by the energy,

made as to, how a number of estates,
selected haphazard, have been acquired
Almost without exception collusion or
evasion OF the letter and spirit of the
land laws was involved. 1t is not neces-
sarily to be inferred that the present
owners of these estates were dishonest
but the fact remains that their holdings
were acquired or consolidated by practices
which can not be defended
The disastrous effect of this system upon
the well-being of the natl as a whole
requires little comment. Under the present
conditions, speaking broadly, the large
estate usually remains in a low condition
of cultivation, whereas under actual
settlement by individual home makers
the same land would have supported many
famllleS in comfort and would have
yielded far greater returns. Agriculture
is a pursuit of which it may be asserted
absolutely that it rarely reaches its best
development under any concentrated form
of ownership.
There exists and is spreading in the
West tenant or hired-labor system
which not only represents a relatively low
industrial development, but whose further
extensions carries with it most serious
threat. Politically, socially, and economic
ally this system is indefensible. Had the

aminations made for the commission of
the grazing systems of the State of Texas,
the State of Wyoming, the Union and
Northern Pacific railroads, and of the
Indian office in the case of permits to
stockmen for the use of Indian lands suit
able for grazing, and of the grazing con-
ditions throughout the West. A map has
been prepared showing the general loca-
tion and area of the summer, winter and
year-long ranges, and the sections which
are largely dependent upon a temporary
water supply for their untilization in graz
ing, and those where there has been ex-
tensive development by wells and wind
mills. We believe that this map will be
found exceedingly valuable and interest
ing in the consideration of all grazing
problems and it is therefore submitted in
the appendix.
Third. Upon the results of a meeting
called to confer with the commission by
Denver early in August, 1904 which was
attended by the Secretary of Agriculture
and by representative stockmen from all
the grazing-land States and Territories
The opinion of the stockmen present was
almost unanimous in favor of some action
on the part of the government which
would give the range user some right of
control by which the range can be kept
from destruction by overcrowding and the
controversies over range rights can be
satisfac actorily eliminated, the only ques-
ton being as to the most satisfactory

show that under the present system the
pasturing value of the ranges has deteri-

Hands has greatly diminished; that the
present condition of affairs is unsatisfac-
tory; that the adoption of a new system of
management would insure a better and

even to the personal cleanliness of the
barber himself. The following rules
have recently been promulgated by the
government ,of a large German city:
The cutoff hair must at once be re-
moved; the floor of the shop must be
washed at least twice per week; cold
and hot running water must be sup
Piled, and the barber must wash his
hands with warm water before attend
ing to a customer. No cretonne or
carpets are permitted in barber shops.
The head rest must be covered for
each customer with q fresh napkin of
paper or linen. The employees must
wear clean, long upper garments of
light color, without pockets. The soap
used must be in form of powder or
small tablets.
The lather from raZors must be re-
moved by means of paper. Instead of
sponges pieces of woolen cloth or
napkins have to be used. Alum Or
magnesia can only be used, kept in a
powder box. The bowls and shaving
brushes must be cleaned each time
after having been used. Nobody is
allowed to be shaved suffering from
a visible skin disease, unless the pro-
prietor of the barber shop is con-
vineed that it is not contagious.
Sponges, powder puffs, magnesia and
styptics in Jumps, and revolving
brushes are prohibited. Scissors,
brushes, and combs, as well as the
hair-cutting machines and razors,
must be cleaned with ammonia or
soda and an antiseptic solution.
