l7th day OF May, 1903. which you all
know is Norway's day OF lndepend- ,
ance, celebrated throughout the !
country. We sing. Norway Land of
the Future" as rejoicing all thoughts
revert from the bright visions of today
TO the past. With feeling of deep
gratitude 90 We think of our fathers, |
who in the midst OF great danger and |
want enacted our Constitution Of May, /
II, lsli making Norway the freest
country in all Europe. The fathers,
we say--but the mothers. the women
were they not there. Surely we
know they were there to take the
heavy burdens. for when it comes 20
suffering, the greatest share always
tails to the mothers, though of them
we have heard bat little until 1868
came and with it the Plebescite.
Should the women then no, take
part:.
Did they rot belong to the people:
No.
Ia 1901 most Of the Morse momen
obtained municipal suffrage but no
political rights. only the men should
settle the question. Then not Till
then did the women fully understand
what it meant not to have suffrage

but silent as they We're in lsl4, they
would not be always. A way out
of it had to he found. THEY
WOULD VOTE. SO they conclud-
ed to send to the Storthing petition.
Which | had the honor to present
bearing an unanimous request for the
vote. Yes they would have the Union
dissolved, and they would help do it.
AS a result of our effort the bill giving
women political suffrage even pass
ed by the Storthing on the l4th day Of
June. 1907,
For men there is universal suffrage.
but women must be taxpayers in order
to vote in political affairs. We, there
fore. on the l7th day OF May. promise
that we will not cease until Norway is
wholly free you will ask, "Is Nor.
way then not wholly free?" No. no
country is free 80 long as its women
are deprived OF rights.
How can we put our trust in liberty
so long as bondage rules and governs
our homes. Can we expect
liberty to bear the right fruit when
those who bear and train the coming
generation are in bondage?. lmposs-

The reason of the rulers of the
nations not seeing this self-eviden'
truth is simply this: they themselves

CUMMINS.HAUGEN MEETING.
Crowded House Listened to Discussions Of
Campaign Issues by Governor and Con.
gresham on Friday Evening

The closing meeting of the republican
campaign in Winneshiek county on
Friday evening attracted a crowd which
filled the Grand Opera House. The
speakers, Governor A. B. Cummns and
Congressman c. \. Haugen, arrived on
the afternoon train and were met at the
station by the band and committee and
escorted up town The afternoon was
spent in meeting friends at the hotel
and about town. Preceding the meeting
in the evening the Merchants Band
played on the streets, and by the time
for the meeting to open the Opera
House was crowded The weather was
ideal. which gave the farmers adjacent
to DEBORAH an opportunity to come in
without inconvenience.
The Cresco Glee Club was present
and during the evening rendered some
splendid vocal selections. Gov Cummins
was introduced as the first speaker, and
spoke at length upon the issues of the
campaign He is well known as IAN
orator of rare ability, and rarely fails to
make an address that is received with
enthusiasm He opened with an analysis
of the characteristics of Bryan, and
dwelt at length upon the fallacy of the
arguments being presented by him and
appearing in the democratic platform
A considerable part of his speech was
devoted to the bank guarantee PROPOSE
ton. which he readily punctured
Congressman Haugen spoke only
about a half hour, but his address was
conceded by all to be one of the best
he has ever made here. He spoke of
the prevailing high prices and the effect
of the same upon the farmers of the
country, comparing the present financial
conditions of the country with that OF
the period of the Wilson tariff law. He
drew some particularly strong illustra-
tons and was given close attention

His name has long been synonymous

departs from the several lines i'll which
he displayed wonderful proficiency and

versatility was long ago demonstrated
when he wrote a strong war play II
"Chattanooga" and devised the greatest
railroad effects for melodrama that have
ever been staged in one and the same

The Amciican member, OF the Roman
Catholic Hierarchy arc well pleased with
the new papal constitution which went
into effec. yesterday. November 3D.
They have been looking forward with a
great deal of satisfaction to the day
which would elevate the United States
from mission country to the rank and
status of regularly recognized Roman
Catholic state, with the right and pre-
negative of dealing direct with the
Roman congregations through the papal
secretary of state, instead OF dealing
with the propaganda which heretofore
has had charge of all matters pertaining
10 mission countries Under the new
papal constitution the United States,
Great Britain, Holland, Canada, New
foundland. Gibraltar, and Luxembourg
are removed from the jurisdiction OF
the propaganda, which forms one of the
nineteen congregations in Rome, to
whom the administration of all church
matters is entrusted The propaganda
which is headed by Cardinal Gott has
heretofore been one of the most inn
portant and powerful of the congrega-
tons, but by the new constitutions its
powers will be materially diminished.

HELD ON SERIOUS CHARGE.
William Barrett Accused of Bootleg
ging Whisky in RichIand.

Sheriff Wilkerson is holding William
Barrett. formerly a section hand on
the Missouri Pacific railroad. on a
charge of 'bootlegging" in Richland.
Barrett's home. Behind this charge of
"bootlegging" is another and more ser
ious charge which the officers are in
vestigating.
About ten days ago, the Richland
depot burned in the nighttime.
Nearby residents who discovered the
fire and attempted to put it out, saw
enough of the interior building to know
that some freight consignments which
had been left therein. had been remov-
ed before the fire was started. Among
the stuff locked in the depot was a
small consignment of whisky, and they
are trying to connect this with the per
sistent rumor, upon which Barrett was
arrested. that he was peddling whisky
in Richland and vicinity the day after
the fire.
When Barrett was brought before the
court of Topeka today for the setting
of bond, this bond was set at $500 by
request of the county attorney. The
usual bond for 'boOtlegging'' cases is
$500
