We have converted the country into
meaningless Switzerland and made
IL one vast hotel for foreigners. This
may prove to be most delightful
method of becoming actually depend
ent and eventually develop us into
meaningless people. Our old poverty
was perhaps far better for us than to
become a nation of walters and bid
ding for tips We are soon turning
into a set of beggarfolk with the cap
off and the other hand reaching out
for a tip" Mr.. Hamsum's words are
a trife strong, but may be productive
of arousing the Norwegian people TO
believe in the theory Of encouraging
their people to remain at home and
encourage home industry rather than
inviting so many foreigners to their
shores. The same holds true of Swe-
den even in a greater degree.
Norway's oldest man at present is
Abel Lind Eliasson, born at Arvik, in
Vaagen, in 1896 He is therefore ia
years old, but is still so spry that he
is able to visit all his neighbors and
walk rather a long distance without
being visibly fatigued. He has al
ways been an exceedingly healthy
man, has a strong constitution and
has used tobacco for almost 100 years,
He is by all odds the most wonderful
man in Norway at present.
To steal whole house may be re.
garded as the height of nerve and had
it happened in Russia or America 1t
would not have been so surprising,
but this really happened in Christiania.
The other day when a Christiania citi.
zen returned from an extensive jour
ney up country, where he had been at.
tending to some business, he learned
to his amazement that some one had
hauled the house away. What has be-
come of 1t is mystery and no one has
been able to trace the thief or the
house
There has been such great crop
failure in Vastlandet that the stor.
thing may have to make an appropria-
ton to help out the people in that Sec
ton of the country or they will not be
able to get through the winter. Nearly
all the farmers have sold their stock
and the few cattle that they intended
to keep over fall and winter they will
have to butcher for home use. 1t has
been an unusually dry season and the
hay crop has been failure.
Bjornstjerne Bjornson's famous VII
la, "Aulestad," is for sale. Madame
Caroline Bjornson has ordered her at
torney to sell it as soon as suitable
purchaser be found. Some time ago
it was planned by Mrs. Bjornson to
turn the old estate into Bjornson
but she has abandoned this
plan.
Up to Aug. Is the Bergen exposition
had been visited by 100000 persons
and, judging from this attendance, it
will be a record breaker. Enough
money has been taken In to defray all
expenses and from a financial view

Taft and Roosevelt Confer at
New Haven, Conn
new YORK STATE SITUATION
Cause of Some Concern to the For
mer President and His Politi.
cal Advisers.

| Albany, N. Y, Sept. 20.-President
! Taft and Colonel Theodore Roosevelt
met at New Haven, Conn, for the
second time since the former presi-
dents return from Africa. 1t was
plain from all that transpired before
and after the meeting that the colonel
and his close political advisers are not
q little worried over the situation in
New York state and went to the
president for further evidence of his
moral support
This the president was glad to give.
He declared his position in the New
York state fight had been clear from
the very first. He said he sympathized
heartily with the fight against boss
ism" being waged by the people of the
state. Mr.. Taft reiterated the state
ments he made in his letter to Lloyd
C. Griscom, president of the New York
county Republican committee, at the
time of the Sherman-Roosevelt con-
troversy over the temporary chair
manship. This letter, he added, stated
his position fully and accurately and
he was standing on it absolutely.
Mr. Taft announced to his callers
anew what he had said in the Girls
com letter-that he favored direct pri-
maries for the nomination of congress
men and state legislators. He under
stands this to be the purport of the
Cobb bill as amended by the Seth Low
and Joseph Choate memorial. He said
he hoped that declaration for such
primary law would be written into the
Republican state platform, and that
a candidate for governor in sympathy
with this movement would be NOM
mated.
Both Agree With Taft.
President Taft is not ready as yet
to admit the advisability of doing
away with conventions for the nom
ination of state officers from governor
down. Mr.. Taft understands that
both Governor Hughes and Colonel
Roosevelt are now practically in ac-
cord with his own position, although
the governor fought at first for direct
primaries for all Offices.
President Taft and Colonel Roose-
welt did not discuss the question OF
the presidency in 1912. The president
has not been advised as to what Mr..
Roosevelt's attitude is toward that
campaign.
1t can be stated that the meeting at
New Haven, while it may have been
successful In it's scenic effect" and
of moral advantage to the Roosevelt
leaders In New York state, was alb
solutely barren of results as to any
better understanding between the
president and Colonel Roosevelt as to
national issues or their personal rela-
lions in view of many recent events.
Something of the nature of truce
seems to have been arranged regard
ing the New York state situation.
After that is over events will shape
themselves. Colonel Roosevelt him
self is said to have let drop the hint
that, as to his side of the matter,
something would be doing" after the
elections. Mr.. Taft is letting 1912
look out for itself. He declares he
has other matters Of concern at the
moment.
1t came out at the conference that
the Taft administration is to be en-
dorsed at Saratoga. No mention of
Mr.. Taft as candidate in 1912 will
be made.

Grosshandler Breit's office was bro
ken into in Copenhagen the other
night and the burglars succeeded in
securing cash to the amount of 400
crowns and checks to the amount of
not less than 10000 crowns 1t is the
biggest robbery that has taken place
in Copenhagen for many a day, indeed
some say that it Is the biggest bur.
glary in the history of the city. The
same night the theft was committed,
a notorious criminal by the name of
Michael Carlson made his escape from
the Fredriksberg hospital. from which
place another criminal. H. " Rasmus-
sen. had succeeded in escaping the
night before. 1t Is believed that these
two criminals. who have operated to-
gether In former years. committed the
robbery. The notorious pair attempt.
ed to leave the city the other day in
company with couple OF women, but
were arrested. They. however, main
tain that they had absolutely nothing
to do with the big robbery. but it is
significant that they had 300 crowns
with them.
A trip around Europe in a canoe is
a rather hazardous feat. but that is
what a twenty-eight-year-old Swede
has started out to do. He arrived In
Nykjobing harbor the other day, hav-
ing made the ocean voyage in his ca
noe from Gothenburg. His canoe is
two masted affair. 1t is his intention
to journey through Emperor William
canal. the North sea, cross the Eng.
lish channel and make his way to the
Mediterranean and the Black sea.
When he reaches Russian shores he Is
going to make his way back through
Russian rivers and intends to stick to
water all the time He thinks that he
can make this UNIQUE trip in a year.
His friends predict that he will either
get drowned or that he will be glad to
make the return journey on foot.
Fire broke out in the city hall in
Copenhagen one day during the latter
part OF last month and for a time 1t
seemed as though the building was
doomed. The fire started in an eleva-
tor shaft and spread to the second
and third stories with amazing rapid.
ity. Had 1t not been for the prompt
way in which the fire department. re
sponded the imposing structure would
have been destroyed.

erected In front of the national bcs-
pital in Copenhagen.
According to recent dispatch from
Raijavik, Iceland. 1t Is feared that the

He was taken to a hotel somewhat
dazed. In making turn he swoop-

his machine catching in a tree and
sending the aeroplane headlong to
the earth.
The machine was badly wrecked.
As the aeroplane fell hundreds of

Des Moines, Dec 3.-Senator "Lafe"
Young has challenged the progress

special primary in January or Fe0ru-
airy to determine who shall serve as
Dolliyer's successor in the United
States senate. Senator Young says
he would enter the lists in such a pri-

Attorney General II. W Byers, who
has announced his candidacy for the
United States senate, last night de-
clared mis- willingness to abide by such
a pr mary. Senator Cummins also
came cut in favor of the plan
Expects to split Vote.
Senator Young,s theory. il is said, is
that the prOcressives would have at
least four candidates in the special
primary. two OF whom would split the
progressive vote. which would make
mis- uvn election as the sole stand-pat
candIGste almost certain. His cam
vass Of the incoming Legislature is
said IN have convinced him that he
cannot hope to be elected by it.
the proposal placed the progress

York, yesterday stirred the supreme
court of the United States.
The attorney was arguing for the
reinstatement of Second Lieutenant
Winslow Hart Reeves, artillery
corps. By reason of enemies in the
war department, it was claimed by
Bacon Reeves had been dismiss
ed from the army with only one
years pay.
"In this day of imperialism, Mr..
Bacon said. 1T seems to be feel
ing even among judges that the resi-
dent of the United States can do
anything The time was when an
officer would spurn the idea of pro-
motion through his wife's influences.
Things have changed now. To be a
great soldier now, you must bow to
the scepter and be lickspittle."
Justice White interrupted him, OBJ
jecting to the speech on a coordinate
branch of the government. After
apologizing, Mr.. Bacon concluded his
remarks by saying that he believed
the justices would be surprised by
perusal of the case.
Subscr1Icncy n Protector
In a brief filed, Mr.. Bacon said
that Lieutenant Reeves dismissal
would be a blot upon the fair name
of military justice.
IF such methods are to prevail"
he said, every officer will feel that
his commission is unsafe in the hands
of an INSCRIPTIONS department and
that fattery and sugservienCy are
more potent protectors to a commits
sion then efficiency in the line of
duty
