The evening times. [volume] (Grand Forks, N.D.) 1906-1914, 1907-06-07

The northwest and North Dakota
owes much to Norway. Her sons and
daughters have become the adopted
children Of the prairies, and the stur-
dy manhood, high integrity and in
domitable courage of these descend
ants of the Vikings have been largely
instrumental in converting the prairie
wilderness, over which the buffalo
roamed, into the bread basket of the
world and dotting it as the stars in
the armament with homes and church,
es and schools.
And these adopted citizens are loyal
to the flag and true to the principles
of our institutions. But with all this
fidelity to the land of their adoption
the love of fatherland can never be
effaced. The ties which bind them to
the scenes of childhood, to the grassy
mounds where sleep the dead loved
ones, to kindred and friends, still
burns within the soul, and across the
waters today will flash the greetings
of the Norwegians of our own land
to their fellow-countrymen at home,
and across the chasm will be clasped
in faith the hands of Norwegians at
home and in every land and cline.
And We join in the celebration to-
day as Americans. The inherent prin-
ciples of liberty implanted in the
souls of the Norwegian people is the
same as that for which our ancestors
offered their lives upon a nations al
tars. Let it spread until every nation
and every man shall unite in the cele-
bration OF every event which has
marked mile post in the onward
march of liberty and equal rights.

ernor Burke is soon to make an APP
pointment, undoubtedly from among
the ranks of the travellers. He ad-
vised that man be chosen who has
big warm heart so that he can go
around and warm the beds in the
hotels in some sections of the state
where the landlords have the re-
vised edition Of the biblical psalm,
Thou shalt not be afraid of terror
by night" the revision reading some-
thing like this: Thou shalt not be
afraid of bugs by night" The speaker
told Of the fine advantages of Grand
Forks, its beautiful homes, business
enterprises and educational institu-
tons. and in giving the keys of the
city he only wished that they be
handled mercifully, kindly and just
ly He stated that Grand Forks had
mayor who was harmless, the only
way to arouse him being through the
agency of creosote block.
In his response, Grand Counselor
McGarvey of Huron, 8. d. covered the
work OF the United Commercial Tray
elers and what has been accomplished
by them. He stated that when the
Grand Forks committee men, Terry
McCosker, Frank Hansen and H. E.
Payne. last year at Albert Lea, Minn.,
put in bid for the present conven-
ton in Grand Forks, the one reason
why the travellers acquiesed in their
wishes, was because they knew that
Grand Forks would Guido herself in
entertaining them. THE fame OF
Grand Forks has gone abroad and it
is with pleasure the people speak of
this city," said the speaker. He COW

scope of the order and the transitory
period during which time the men,
bership and strength of the order has

AMERICAN NORWEGIANS.

Two years ago today there occurred
in far off Norway an event which
seemed destined to shake the thrones
of Europe and embroil the peoples
of the dual nation, over which King
Oscar ruled, in a war which would
injure, if not destroy, the prosperity
of those people.
1t is needless at this time to repeat
the story Of the events which led to
the separation of the two nations in
fact as we'll as in name.
When the coalition which overthrow
Napoleon in 1914 took Norway from
Denmark, to which it had been allied
for centuries, and gave it to Sweden
as the price of that nations allegi-
ance to the powers which had united
for the overthrow of the Corsican, it
violated every right of the Norwegian
people and attempted to traffic in lib
erty and independence. Yielding to
conditions which she could not at that
time avoid, yet standing out boldly
in the face of these conditions and
proclaiming her independence, Nor
way agreed to the dual kingdom plan,
preserving, however, her freedom in
her stortling.
For nearly century this condition
prevailed, and so far as the indie
pendence of the Norwegians was con-
cerned, there was nothing to be de-
sired. The made their own laws and
regulated their own internal condi-
tons. But trouble arose over the con-
sular service. These agents of the
government, appointed by the king,
were largely devoted to the upbuild-
ing of the Swedish nation and in for
eign lands.
Norway insisted upon her rights to
zoe Representative nave a separate
list of consular agents, and failing
in this request, she withdrew from
the alliance, and reestablished her ma
tional rights as an Independent ma
ton.
1t must be admitted that these dis
solutions, even where founded in right
and justice, are seldom unaccompa-
MED by bloodshed and war, and the
fact that the two people with so much
in common accomplished the task to
the satisfaction of both, and without
resout to the arbitrament Of war, is
the highest tribute that can be paid
to the statesmen who guided the ship
amid the treacherous shoals.

most enthusiastically encored, giving
another dialect piece, Josiah and
Samantha" and their love affair.
Governor Burke was then intro
duced, and hearty ovation, such as
travellers only are capable of giving,
was rendered the chief executive of
North Dakota. Governor Burke open
ed his address with few happy re-
marks, saying that he did not come to
Grand Forks solely for the purpose of
making talk, but to get acquainted
with the travellers he did not know
and to renew acquaintances with those
whom he had already met Governor
Burke then had something to say at
the expense Of President Robertson,
and also remarked that he was sur
prised to learn that there was more
than one route to East Grand Forks
he had never heard of the tunnel
spoken of by President Robertson.
However, he advised the travellers to
use the bridge should they desire to
go to East Grand Forks, but If neces-
sary, to make use of the tunnel on
the return trip. The speaker was glad
to know that the people of Grand
Forks had rendered such heart well
come to the visitors. He also alluded
to the Fargo Grand Forks feeling, and
was glad to learn that they were not
rivals. He was in Fargo yesterday,
The evening times. [volume] (Grand Forks, N.D.) 1906-1914, 1907-06-07

and the people there had told him that
the state fair was too small q thing
for them, and that they were glad
Grand Forks had 1t this year. On his
arrival here he found Grand Forks
we'll pleased at having the fair, both
cities being thus satisfied. He re-
ferred to the hotel inspectorship, say
Ing that when the travellers agreed on
man for the position. he would APP
point that man, should he be COM
petent. He said the hotel law was a
travelling mans law, and for that rea-
son they should have the naming of
the official to enforce 1t. He then gave
high tribute to the travelling man.
The business firms would not, he said,
send man out to represent them in
"a business way unless he was thor
oughly competent and In every sense
of the word, a business man himself
Education was therefore necessary for
travellers. In their work they have
the opportunity OF meeting people
from all walks Of life, and through
this they can become greater men,
larger men. He did not know until
he had heard the address of Grand
Counselor McGarvey that the order
was benevolent one. He said, how
yer. that he was not surprised at this,
insomuch as the spirit of good feeling
Is probably more evident in travellers
than in any other class of men-beno-
velency being therefore in keeping
with this broader spirit. A person
boards train, and almost always he
sees number of travelling men con-
versing together with that spirit of
good feeling always uppermost. no
matter whether they he business rivals
or not. 1t was the travelling men he
said, who were doing much to bring
out a universal spirit of good feeling.
Following this there was a public
reception for Governor Burke in the
opera house, and large number OF
people took advantage of this oppor-
tunity of meeting the executive.
The picnic this afternoon at the
Town and Country club grounds is
big affair. Fully a thousand peo-
pie are at the beautiful and spacious
grounds, and the program of sports is
being run off. The grounds are in

knowing men and things, they have a
broad and comprehensive grasp on
the great problems of the day. The
hours spent in the hotel lobby and in
the smoking car are opportunities for
the discrimination of these ideas, and
the result is a recognition OF their
principles and beliefs among the
public.

looking into strange faces, the travel

the mail only brings the sweetness
OF home life-the love of wife and
voices of children. A stranger in a

extend to him the keys of the city,
in this, his annual gathering for the
good of his craft.
