became an object OF devout pilgrimages

cathedral and some fifteen or twenty other
churches were built upon the strength of
the faith he had created and even in Prot
estant Norway today his name is revered
above all others.
In 1851 T,rondhjem was erected into an
archbishopric and a new impulse given
to ecclesiastical building enterprise. At
this time the great Archbishop EPSTEIN, the
third of Trondh5em, quarreled with the
king and fed to England where he remain
ed for three years. He returned full of
religious zeal and ambitious plans for his
own national capital, and during the next
few years he built the present transept of
the cathedral, a graceful central tower, the
Chapter House, all In the style of the late
Romanesque period. His successor finished
the magnificent choir and the octagonal
apse that covered the relics OF st. Olaf, and
fIom that time the building grew through
all sorts of exuberant imaginings which left
upon 1t traces Of the splendor of the early
Gothic period mingled with the classical
RomanesQue in such a manner as to create
a monument of absolute beauty. 1t has
been repeatedly damaged by fire and the
elements but is now in the hands of de-
voutly careful restorers. The great central
tower with its four-corner turretS was not
completed until 1901, and 1t is a matter
of great regret to the Norwegians that the

Little More Than a Fishing Village.
There is no royal palace in Trondhjem
and during the coronation festivities the
royal family will use The residence of the
Stiftsamtmand, the sgovern6r of the prov
ince. This stands in the center of the city
near the great Market place, where the
people gather daily in picturesque throng
to buy and sell the produce of the country
and the ford. The town in ordinary times
is really little moro than a fishing village,

The town where 1t hugs the shore of the

most entirely of wood and the prevailing
colors are red and green. The streets ars
wide, but this diminishes the danger of fire,
which periodically breaks out among the
pipe-wood dwellings. The wide streets open
to view wonderful vistas of the roch-bound

Why Perkins will not be Governo


The Register and Leader says that
Perkins will never be governor of
Iowa, because he is man Of words
instead of deeds. 1t quotes from
his writings to show that his words
would indicate an opposition to cor
porations more radical and uncom-
promising than that Of Governor
Cummins, yet, Notwithstanding that,
he has the support of the corpora
tons and his campaign is being
managed by corporation agent.
The following pungent paragraph
concludes the Register and Leaders
long editorial entitled, why Not
Mr.. Perkins,: Governor Cummins
has not said so much, but he meant
to do something; that is why he is
being supported for the unusual
honor Of a third term. Nj. Perkins
has said more than any man need to
say, but the men who are engineer
ing his campaign do not intend to
have anything done, and Mr.. Per-
kins' past record does not give any
assurance that he intends to do any
thing, and that is why he will never
be nominated for governor of Iowa
in this year Of grace, 1906. The
primary law may be shelved, and
the congressional delegation may be
united and red hot, but the people
are in the saddle and there they in
tend to remain"

Small Occasion tor Alarm.

Generally speaking, we think
there is good deal Of unnecessary
alarm over the subject Of socialism.
Undoubtedly there is just now a
strong tendancy in that direction.
Certain converts" have recently
been made to the cause, the impor
lance of whom has been exaggerated.
Young Mr.. Patterson Of Chicago
and young Mr.. Stokes of New York
are hailed as the prophets of new
era. Yet we believe that the old
world will go on much as it has
been going for hundreds Of years.
Progress we shall see. Growth, of
course, there will be. But we very
much doubt whether there is going
to be social or industrial revolu-

Standpatters' Victory Loaded at Both
Ends,

The Scranton Journal thinks that
the defeat Of the State Primary Bill
is questionable victory for the
Standpatters. Here is what it says:
This victory of the standpatters was
won by most disreputable methods,
and the Journal regards it as the
last desperate death throe ola dying
political machine. We believe that
J. W. Blythe-perhaps yet jubilant
because Of this victory-has at last
overstepped the limits of public pa
thence and that vengence sure and
certain will be hurled back at him
in the political contests Of the en-
suing campaign. This organization
in Iowa which he leads expects by
this victory to be able to pack eau
cuses and conventions this year to
utterly rout the reform forces, but it
is a victory loaded at both ends.
Every congressman who used his in
fluence againt the passage of this
law should be retired to private life,
and it is not at all improbable that
they may be.

Deeds Are Fruit, Words Are But
Leaves.

Here are some of Mr.. Perkins
words:
"Is this government for and by
the corporations, or is it a govern
ment for aid by the people?
The corporations will become
subordinate to the government or
the government will become SUBJ
ordinate to the corporations.
Which shall it be? That is the
immediate question.
Can a convention of citizens be
held without being overriden by
the slaves of favoritisnl and the
sycophantic benificiaries of free
transportation? Are political con-
ventions. state legislatures and the
congress of the United States to be
converted into cattle yards?"
These are strong words, and the
only singular thing about them is
the fact that the people of Iowa
sent Mr.. Perkins to congress for
many years, and gave him chance
to strike at the wrongs against
which he now declaims, and he
never struck even once, or did SO
much as to attempt to strike.
Wrong doors are only afraid Of
men of deeds.

Railroad officials are interesting
in a safety device which has just
been patented by which train dis
patcher has control Of trains ON his
division over every mile Of track. 1t
consists Of a series of semaphores
placed at frequent intervals along
the track, which can be raised and
lowered by the dispatcher without
leaving his desk. 1t is proposed to
use in connection with this device
telephones. so that the conductor of
a stopped train can communicate at
once with the train dispatcher and
receive new orders. Moreover, the
agents at stations along the line have
control Of the semaphores on either
side Of them, so that if they see a
train running by underwrong orders
they can stop it at the next soma
phore. The mechanism of the new
device is extremely simple, being
operated by electricity obtained from
half dozen dry cells at each soma
phore post. The dispatcher is mott
fed by red light on the switch
board in front of him that the sema-
phore has been raised, and when it
is raised by station agent along
the line his attention is called to it
by the ringing of bell.
