Swift Criminal Justice.

Fort Dodge, Oct. 3.-The speed
lest justice on record was procured
here yesterday when County Attor-
ney B. B. Burnquest acted under a
new law giving him the privilege OF
filing a true information in district
court against criminals and thus
avoiding the necessity of awaiting
indictment by the next grand jury.
His prisoners, two boys, who at a
preliminary hearing had pleaded
guilty of burglarizing the store and
postof1ice at Industry, again pleaded
guilty before Judge Albrook.
They would have been on the
way to the penitentiary yesterday
afternoon except for the fact that
the Judge withheld sentence until
this morning, his sympathy being
aroused in their case The lads
claim to be John and Ray Hill of
Waukegan, Ill. The younger boy
has been away from home but one
week and appears not to be a Grim
inal. Neither seemed to compre-
bend fully the significance of the
proceedings and the judge called his
task Of sentencing them a s'cold,
hard proposition"

There is very marked difference in
the working methods of the United
States congress and the British par
lament which strike the visitor from
one country to the other. Some of the
things that seem peculiar to the
American is the absence of clerks in
the British assembly and the practice
OF members in wearing hats during
the session. Some recent proposals
that the hour of converting the Brit
ISL parliament be changed call atten-
ton to the striking difference between
the working methods Of that body and
our own congress. Parliamentary ses-
sions begin late and last far into the
night. The parliamentary hours, in
deed. have undergone good MANY
changes and it is only ~ years since
a radical change was made in them.

Discomfort IN ICELAND.
A"A~.~ers want Larger Measure of
Sslf-Government Than They
POssess.

Even Denmark is having trouble
with her dependencies. The latest
murmur of discomfort comes from Ice
land, where the inhabitants are ask
ing greater measure of home rule.
says recent dispatch The only COM
promise Denmark offers is that new
councillor be granted the lcelanders,
who shall have seat in the Danish
parliament or rigsdag. This is sup
posed to be what the Danish govern
ment means by "a moderate extension
of home rule" But this is Just what
the lcelanders do not want, as they
think that it would mean a gradual
lessening of the power of their own
althing.
According to the constitution grant
ed Iceland during the visit nf the king
OF Denmark to the island in 1874 it is
stipulated that Iceland shall be IAN
lnalienable part Of the Danish king
DOM" This has been interpreted by
successive governments and parlia-
ments TO mean that Iceland is a mere
department or stitte and not a sep
arate state, entirely independent of
the Danish parliament, though under
the same king as Denmark Since the
adoption of the constitution, the Dan
ish interpr citation of which does not
satisfy the claims of Iceland to auton-
omy, no efforts of the Ioelanders to
obtain increased administrative pow
ers have been conceded.
"A committee of the althing is now
in Copenhagen for the purpose of get
ting the king to intercede in their be-
half and free the althing from its de-
pendence on the Danish ministry and
parliament, and have Iceland only to
do with the king himself or his repre-
sentative in Reykjavik.
In Copenhagen it is said that the
spirit OF independence Of the Iceland
ers is enhanced at this moment from
the fact that its people wish to be freed
from the Danish tariff which prevails
there and under which various Danish
monopolies are fiourishing, and that
should this be done English commodi-
ties would completely drive the Danish
from the island and the English would
soon obtain control Of all Icelandic in
dustries.
