that country to the allies in their cam

the Norwegians had declared their in
dependence Sweden prepared to take
the country by force of arms. Several
minor skirmishes took place between
the forces of the two countries, but
before any battle had been fought an
agreement was reached which pro-
vided that the two countries should
form a union under one king. BY this
agreement Norway was to retain her
constitution, with control of her gov

branches. This union was never en-
tirely satisfactory to Norway and was
terminated by that country on June T.

FLYING SQUADRON IN
SUCCESSFUL MEETING
Suffragettes Conduct Rally at
Holly Beach Yacht Club. Mem
hers Make Things Hum ON
Tvo-Day Tour OF the County

The Flying Squadron of the New
jersey Suffrage association held a
most successful mass meeting in the
reception room of the Holly Beach
Yacht club yesterday afternoon. Sew
eral prominent speakers addressed the
big audience that assembled. 81 gag s
Mrs. e. F. Feickert, state president,
DR.. Laird, of the Holly Beach Presby-
terrain church, Mrs. F. H. Clavin, of
East Orange, and Rev. DR.. Lynch. of
Cape May, were the principal speak
ers. They spoke upon the wonderful
success that suffrage is meeting with
in all sections of the country. DR..
Lynch praised those in charge of the
Flying Squadron and said that their
efforts were appreciated, as was shown
by the great number that attended the
meeting.
The committee in charge of the
squadron had a very busy day. AT
IL a. M. a meeting was conducted at
Cape May Court House, at the court
house. At 100 p. M. the
members held another big rally at
Stone Harbor. A big tent was pitched
at Goth street and LIST avenue and a
large audience listened to the various
speakers.
The rally at the local yacht club COM
menced at 3 %. M, following which
the squadron moved on to Cape May
where a big meeting was held on the
beach. Today's program was even
a more strenuous one and much credit
must be given the various workers for
their efforts to aid the cause. Address
ses were made at the following places
between 8 q. m. and s p. M: Cold
Spring, Erma, Rio Grande, Goshen,
South Seaville, Ocean View, Seaville,
Tuckahoe, Woodbine and Ocean City.
The committee consists of Mrs. e. F.
Feickert, state president; Mrs. J..
Thompson Baker, county chairman;

Morgan Dix, Mrs. Latimer r. Baker,
Mrs. I. w. Bagley, Mrs. w. H. Bright.
Mrs. John HI. Judge and Mrs. George
M. Adams.
The principal topic of the meetings
was the information that Secretary of
State William J. Bryan had declared
himself for Woman's suffrage. All
the members Of the committee are de-
lighted to think that such a valuable
man ally has been won over to the
cause. The addresses were spirited
and earnest. Yesterday the party
took luncheon at Stone Harbor and
dinner at the Holly Beach Yacht club.

II have received a letter from the
Progressive leaders of Burlington
county requesting me to attend a
meeting of The Burlington county Pro-
gressives to be held ia Burlington on
Friday, July Gath. 1 will attend the
meeting and speak before the mem
bers. After I have heard the reports
of the various leaders who will attend
the meeting, I will be in a position to
calculate upon the result of the COM
ing elections. We are still a sort of a
baby organization. We are adding
new supporters to our party every day.
Our policy stands for everything that
is fair, business like and practical.
Like our great leader, Colonel Roose-
velt, the members of the Progressive
party are men who show their teeth,
They are men who have the nations
interests at heart and who will make
history if they are chosen to represent
our country. / have a merry fight on
my hands to win a seat from such adj
mirable candidates that will oppose
me on other party tickets, but 1 will
put forth my best efforts. 1 will be in
the fight every hour of the day and
night and those who cast their votes
for me will have the satisfaction of
knowing that they supported a candi-
date who is for the people all the time,
a man who neve gives up in any sort
of a battle and a Congressman who
will fight for jersey and her sister
states at all times.
1.-THE Progressive leaders have one
big point in view. We are working
in an effort to make Colonel Roose-
velt's march to the chair in 1916 a
path of roses. This great man is with
out doubt the greatest leader of the
day and has the confidence of the pub
lie. Leaders throughout the country
are forming an organization that will
be the mean of a sweeping victory for
the Colonel in 1867
Mr.. Bright is preparing for a busy
campaign. He realizes that his con-
test for Congress will be no tea-party
and intends to work every hour Of the
day and night 10 an effort to represent
four OF New Jerseys greatest counties
at Washington. He feels that he has
the entire support of the Progressive
party voters and will make a strong
bid for supporters from the ranks OF
the Republican and Democratic par
ties. He is not making any false
claims, is not predicting a sweeping
victory for himself, but is going about
his campaign plans in a sensible and
business-like manner--He is a "plug-
ger'' and a man who talks openly and
frank. In closing, the writer would
say, that there is much to admire in a
man of Mr.. Bright's calibre.
