A prominent Noryegtan.American Of

A prominent Norwegfan-Amertcan OF
North Dakota, who has recently re-
turned from his native land, Is quoted
as saying that there will be very little
emigration from Norway to America
the coming year. 1.-The reason for this
Stacking up" says he, lis that the wa
ter powers Of that country are being
rapidly developed, and In consequence,
manufacturing has increased eHor-
mously, giving profitable employment
to the people. 1t formerly was the am-
bition of every young Norwegian to
come to the United States. Now they
are all anxious to aid in the develop
ment Of their own country. Times are
hard over there just now, In spite OF
the industrial development for the
cost of living has more than doubled,
and wages have not been increased
proportlonately, but the people are
looking for easier living conditions af-
ter the close of the war"
A Christiania dispatch says that au-
thoriZation has been given the govern
ment by the storthing to employ men
subject to military duty to cut wood
in the state forests. The step has been
taken In order to avoid a threatening
fuel famine during the coming winter.
Men who volunteer for work In the
forests for a period Of 40 days will be
exempt from military training during
the period prescribed by the govern
ment. The shortage Of fuel is due to
the lack of laborers, who are nearly all
busily employed I'm other branches OF
industry, and to the unwillingness OF
private forest owners to cut from their
holdings the amount of wood which
under the present circumstances the
country will need.
The government Of Norway will

Is leaving no stone unturned to help
the people Of Norway In the crisis
through which they are passing. From
the beginning Of the war 1t has exer-
cised rare foresight In the securing Of
food supplies for the people, and has
prevented the consumers from being
victimized for private profit by private
companies and individuals.
The increase of the wealth Of Haul
gesund during the past year was fabu-
lous. A year ago the value of the per-

ing amounts were $l2,SO0,0OO and

in that way However. he should have
fine loud voice, and pretty taste
in music. Put to the test he would, in
our opinion. sing Mr.. Wilson down,
but his present disposition seems to be
unmelodious. Mr.. Hughes never sang
in his campaign tours; we doubt his
ability. On the other hand, Mr..
Hughes is person of reserve. He
does not display all his talents. He
has unsupported resources. We should
hesitate to wager that he can't sing
and sing we'll.
Colonel Bryan is melody itself He
sings continuously, uniterruptedly,
without cessation. He is pipe organ
a brass band, a grand opera company.
In all music he is a supreme and un-
rivalled master, the ruler of the cav
ems of harmony; and he has confded
to his warmest friends that the sweet
est music known to him is the unres-
trained product of the Swiss yodlers.

been no changes in the anti-gambing laws of Idaho
About February Is months after his assumption of Office
as prosecuting attorney Mr. Gths decided that punch
boards and slot machines against the law and order

is right then follows that for Is months he failed and
neglected to perform his duties in the premises If

Mr.. Wilson rejoices in light tenor

to the sounds he utters, on the con-
trary, pleasure may be obtained from
his musical exercises. But we regret
that he has set the fashion for PresI-
dents to sing in public. 1t may lead
to terrible consequences.
Take Colonel Roosevelt, for in

and we trust that may be spared us
Yet he undoubtedly does sing. ac-

BRANDEIS AND HARTMAN.

The late E. H. Hartman accustomed to employ
the best legal talent in the country his financial opera
TONS There is disgrace in the fact that
employed by Mr. Hartman However it suited
the demagogic purposes of Mr. Louis D. Brandes to
have it known that he employed by the railroad mag
nate Reluctantly Mr. Brandeis has been forced to admit
that in 1907 when Mr. Hartman fighting Stuyvesant
Fish for control of the Illinois Central railroad hat his
firm acted for Hartman and widely sought to obtain
proxies in his behalf In 1908 Mr. Bandeis in answer
to- charge made by Joseph B. Warner before the
mittee of the legislature of Massachusetts, that Brandes
had acted in behalf of Hartman to Joseph Walker
chairman of the committee:
Il have never acted directly or indirectly for Mr.
Hartman communicated directly or indirectly with
him, with any who represented him directly or
indirectly, nor have acted far as know directly
or indirectly for any company with which Mr.. Harri-
connected"
In spite of this statement Mr. Austin G. Cox an at
torney before the Senate Committee, will show by wit
nesses that not only the firm of Mr.. Brandeis en-
ployed by Hartman but that Brandes himself was very
active. Throughout the investigation now being made
the charge that Mr. Brandes is untrustworthy is being
fully justified by the most competent witnesses by court
records and by other evidence Should an unrustworthy
man be nominated for Justice of the Supreme Court? And
if nominated should he be confirmed? We think there is
but one to those two questions We are in hopes
that the Senate will have the courage of its convictions

INDEPENDENCE FOR THE FIL1PINos.

which will give the Philippine Islands independence within
four years indicates that this independence has very long
string attached In the first place the Clark resolution

of Congress after the expiration of the fouryear
period if in the opinion of the President the inhabitants
of the Islands unprepaed for self government 1t
also proposed that this country retain naval base

attack by foreign countries through treaties probably
