RADICALS CONTROL NORWAY.
Since Every Adult Man and Woman Was
Given Right To Vote.

| Christiania, April l1.--Since Norway
has given every adult woman and man
the right to vote, legislation is declared
| to have taken remarkably Socialist,
turn, although the Socialist party. ex.
cePt in special industrial centcrs, does
not count a majority OF the voters.
In Parliament the Radicals are in ma
lorlty and in connection with the so.
calistie faction. they have such an over.
wbelming force that the Conservatives
have no say at all. The present legis-
lation is characteristic of Norwegian So
cialistic theories. which, in many respects,
are quite different from those in other
countries. For instance, the legislature.
with large majority, has passed law
by which illegitimate children are to be
placed in the same class as legitimate
children. in relation to the father. The
slogan is Same rights for illegitimate
children as for legitimate children" One
section provides that Legitimate Off
spring shall have full right to take the
name of the father; another gives them
equal rights in the matter OF inheri
lance
Upon a mans death, for instance. an
the man was married, can break into
the bereaved family and. according to
the new law. take the dead mans name
and demand his share of the estate. Al
the same time. ii man who has an H.
legitimate child wants to take the child
into his family. the child's mother NAV
prevent it, il ii is her wish. Opponents
OF the new law have contended that il
will tempt immoral women to look for
rich fathers for illegitimate offspring.
The proponents of the law assert that
the "old fashioned legal matrimony
must be replaced by the fnll love con
nections between soul aiiinities'
In all reformatorv bills before the leg

state, and liberal patron Of learn
ing.
In the kingdom of Leon the Jews
were largely engaged in vine culture
and various other trades, and those
of the city of Leon, like those of
Mausilla, were reputed for their
wealth. They enjoyed equal rights
with the Christian inhabitants, al
though they were subjected to spe-
cial taxes.
When Portugal was conquered by
the Alfonso Henriques of the house
of CASTLE, who became its first
Christian king (1139-11S5), many
Jews were found by him settled in
Santarem, Lisbon, and Beja. There
were many villages and localities
that were wholly or to large ex-
tent inhabited by Jews. The king
pursued a tolerant policy toward
them, and employed some Of them
in his service. Don Yahya Ibn,
Walsh was his "almoxarife," i. e., re-
ceiver of customs. His son and sue
cessor was just as favorably in
clined to them.

Herbert Samuel Reelected.

Herbert Samuel, who was recent
~ given a seat in the Cabinet as
Chancellor of the Duchy of Lam
caster, to succeed Winston S.
Churchill, went through the formal
ity of an election to Parliament last
Friday. The opposition party placed
no candidate and the only antago-
mist he had was the candidate of the
labor party, who polled 1853 votes,
while Samuel's vote was 1872. Sam
uel is regarded as one of the ablest
diplomats in England and his activ-
ity in the ministry is regarded as
boon in the present crisis.

A Modern Joseph with Russia in
the Role of Egypt.

M. Weinstein, the recently elected
member of the Imperial Council
from Odessa, was appointed chair
man and another Odessa Jew, M.
Margolis, as vice chairman of the
Food Committee for the Russian
Government. The duty of this COM
mittee is to- control the food
product of Russia and apportion it
to the various provinces, wherever
the need is greatest. The Jewish
press appropriately refers to M.
Weinstein and his colleague as the
modern Josephs, who are to provide
the modern Egypt with food in it's
distress.
