SOCIALISTS MAKE
GAINS IN NORWAY
High Cost of Living Begin

GHRIST1ANIA, Norway, Jan. 15.-
4 significant political upheaval is in.
dictated by the remarkable Socialist
gain In the municipal elections in
Christiania this month. For the last
sixteen years the Norwegian capital
has been governed by the Conserva-
tive party, but at the elections just
concluded the Socialists won AZ out
of the Sc seats on the aldermanic
board. leaving the Conservatives 81
and the Radicals 5. The Radical men,
hers are known to be irreconcilable to
casting their votes for a Conservative
mayor and it Is therefore pre.determin.
I'D that the Socialists will forthwith
elect one OF their representatives for
mayor.
Tho growth of the Socialist vote all
over Norway has been marked in re.
cent years since suffrage was extend.
sd 70 every man and woman oven
twcney-five years of age. In the last
state election, q year ago, the Social.
SITS mustered 40 per cent. of the vot.
erB. One of the reasons for the re.
cent gains has been the high cost of
living, and many of the middle class
people whose wages have not increas.
I'D proportionately have gone over to
the Socialist platform, which would
have the government take charge Of
trade In the most necessary articles,
such as food and fuel by means of mu-
nicipal stores where everything would
be sold at cost. Something has already
been done along these lines, in the
matter of imports of flour and sugar
and the sale Of fuel, potatoes, milk and
fish; but the Socialist scheme would
carry the government help much fur
ther, even to building dwellings for
the poor and middle class workers.

AMERICAN DOLLAR in MEXICO.

MEXICO CITY, Jan. 15.-Mexico is
one place where the American dollar
Is at o discount. This discount ranges
from 10 to 40 per cent, according to
locality. This has been caused by
the scarcity Of Mexican gold and sill.
yer coins and the fact that certain tax
es and rents and the wages Of EN-.
ployees must now, accoring to decree,
be paid in Mexican COIN. "Hidalgos"
or Mexican gold ten peso coins in Mex
leo City now sell for $3.50 and in some
% the remote states the price has
reached as high as $3.50, while they
used to sen for $3.50.
