MOTHERHOOD IN MISSISSIPPI.

An interesting bill in the Mississippi
legislature is one proposing to give
mothers equal rights with fathers in
their own children. Motherhood in
Mississippi does not rank as high as
fatherhood. 1t is sort of a secondary
position without much right, but with
manifold duties.

John W. Carl Resigns.

John W.. Carl, county auditor
of Mahnomen county, surprised
his many friends last week by sud-
denly resigning from the office of
auditor.
Mr.. CARTS reason for reslgning
was purely personal one, and he
felt that if he remained in office he
would lose his health entirely, so
he did not hesitate to give up a
good position in favor of his
health. All.
Mr.. CARTS habits and honorable
character will enable him to secure
employment at any time he may
want it, and he now has Il standing
offer which is personally known to
US to take up a certain line of light
work.
We wish Mr.. Carl all the sue
cess possible IN anything he may
undertake.

Washington, d. C.-Ear]y de-

of whether railroads may be re-
quired to transport liquor into a
large section of Minnesota, in
which the government is seeking
to prohibit the traffic on the
ground that it is Indian country, y

The court has been asked to ad-
vance for hearing a test case of a
Milwaukee brewing company

RETURNED FROM SWEDEN

On December I, 1915, a party of four,
composed of Mr.. and Mrs. Carl Erick-
son and Mr.. and Mrs. Algot Carlson,
left Wildwood for New York and sail
ed from that city December 9th on the
steamship Frederick VIII for Sweden.
Mr.. Erickson says the voyage ove
was fine and out of a passenger list of
nearly a thousand few if any were sea
sick. When the steamer reached a
point about two hundred and eighty
six miles northwest of the Orkney
islands, which are located north of
Scotland, they were stopped by q
British cruiser who sent an officer
aboard 10 examine the ships papers.
The officers found it necessary to order
the vessel into Kirkwall, a seaport
town on the Orkney islands, where
they took off all the parcel post mail
and three Germans who could not
satisfactorily prove their United States
citizenship. They remained there
from Friday until Sunday, when they
again set sail andsrrived at Christians
December 22d. Mr.. Erickson says the
weather is very cold there and the
Thermometer was down to twelve de-
grees below zero when he and his party
arrived.
They arrived in Copenhagen Deem
bsr 23d at noon and continued on to
Helsingborg, Sweden, which place
they reached that same night. At
Helsingborg live Mr.. Erickson's par
ents, Hans and Christine Erickson, with
whom the par spent a few days before
touring further.
Hans Erickson, aged Sc, is a retired
sea captain and he and his wife live in
a neat cottage IL Oresund sound,
which body of water joins the Baltic
with the North Sea. The town in which
his parents reside has a population Of
about 1000, the inhabitants of which n
gage in either fishing or seafarIng.
From here they went to Stockholm
and Upsala, the latter place being the
Oldest university town in Europe,
dating back to the 14th century,
While here they also visited an old
church which was built by the early
settlers of Sweden back in the 10th
century. Here is also located the
burial grounds of the ancient vikings.
The custom in those days was to bury
the vikings vessel with his body hence
great hillocks abound in this ancient
burial place.
After spending a short time at this
place the party went to Malmo, the
second largest seaport town in Sweden,
and from there back to Helsingborg
where they spent the balance of the
time prior to their departure for Copen-
hagen on February 8, 1915, from which
port they sailed for America.
Mr.. Erickson describes the return
voyage as very rough with little or no
sea sickness on board, arriving in New
York harbor February 22d. In answer
to an inquiry as to what effect the wal
had on conditions in the various towns
he visited, said that everything was
normal, no one was exercised and out
side of the fact that the cost Of living
was high it would not appear to the
visitor that var was so close at hand.
1t was pointed out that as Sweden is
not involved in this controversy they
are not boasting of what they would
do under other circumstances.
H%elsingborg is about three hours sail
from the German coast.
