Hubbard Bros. Letter

New York February 2O.--(Special)
 Liverpool this morning failed to meet our decline of yesterday, prlvate ca
 bles reporting better feeling Tn Man
 chester owing to more hope or a soiu-
 tion to the English labor troubles
 Here the market found a number or
 European buying orders with no re-
 maining selling orders and prices open
 ed at a very sharp advance from last
 nights close, despite some natural
 realizing. the advance was well main-
 tained to the close.
 Now, that the speculative liquidatioh
 appears to have been completed on
 yesterday's decline, the market has
 better appearance than is usually the
 case after such a period of selling.
 The differences have been further
 widened on the lower grades and Eu-
 rope is finding this market an at
 tractive purchase. which is not sur
 prising in view of the values of the
 grades below middling as now estab-
 lished. A somewhat better feeling is
 reported in domestic goods circles. But no volume of trading. An interesting showing of the volume of war business in cotton goods is to be found in the list of War Department orders since April l. 1911, in this mornings Journal of Commerce.

For some time after the dissolution
Of the union between Norway and
Sweden it was feared that the rupture
might lead to unhappy consequences
for both countries by reason of the
fact that there would linger a strong
possibility for mutual bitterness and
dislike. That the external security of
each of the countries would be di-
minished was a rather frequently
heard prophecy.
1t is difacult to calculate what
might have happened had not the
world war made it imperative for the
sister nations to cultivate avery in
innate friendship, a stimulating CO.
operation. but the informally estab-
lished triple league of amity has been
exceedingly effective in preserving the
neutrality of both Norway, Sweden
and Denmark.
Indeed, it a be taken for almost
granted that if these nations had not
emphasized to the rest of the world
their firm resolution to remain u
trail TOGETHER, the neutral stand
could not have been maintained.
Unity Is q Fact.
The continued peace Of the North
is. then. n Of many practical results
Of the close collaboration going on
between the Scandinavian countries,
but it does not mean that they would
be equally successful in their appeals

his movement was a second Abe Lin
coin, that he was absolutely honest,
but he betrayed my confidence when
he said to Mr.. Mees, Go homo and
lie, lie, lie like a id horse thief.
Where will we cut the line IL we let
MI. Mees vote to the dictations Of his
conscience?'
"Those words went through my
heart like a thunderbolt; I felt be-
trryed and ashamed. Such un-Ameri-
ctn words were never uttered by
Lincoln. I did then say to Mr.. LANCER,
Why don't you arrest him and put
him in jail? That man is an anar-
chist.'
There has been a great debt piled
upon u shoulders to carry out the
league program, also many hundreds
absolutely unnecessary, and such laws
we are going to referend. Put your
confidence in the state officials who
declare to stand by you, that are
ready and willing to steer the ship
with its heavy load through a severe
storm. Stand by those men that are
ready to protect your pocketbooks
and your property. Stand by those
men that are heavy taxpayers; even
crooks and traitors Stand by those
men that proved themselves honest
beyond the shadow of a doubt.
Does Townley reallN fear that the
league is going to be torn up? No!
but Townley has proclaimed himself
sole dictator and czar over North Da-
kota. Nothing be touched or
amended without his majestic per-
mission. Real democracy, aha! ito
hell with democracy, one man auto
cratic, Socialistic power, that is what
I established. with or without cause,
goes your head at my will If you
sneeze.'
who do you know better-Langer
or Fownley? Would you believe it if
Townley said that Mr.. LANCER was a
coward, crook and traitor under
cover? In just about that many
words he says that in the Leader.
Are we going to let that insult be
rammed down our Threats and swal-
low it, because Mr.. LANCER said the
educational bill was un-American
and un-democratic? s .
1.-THE trouble lays deeper. With
whom does Townley plan the future?
With good honest farmer or with
pack of Socialists? Count them up
who he has on his string. We got
to get rid of them or our state will be
run by a bunch Of Socialists and I.

to the outside world II they were
forged into a political. entity.

~ tA9 outoaue world II they were
forged into a political entity.
A united Scandinavia is really a.
fact already existent: The three
languages are mutually understood;
n llteratures influence practically
same intelligent public in all three
countries; the intellectual and; ma
tertal exchange between them is Of
greater Importance than ever before,
and the present trend Of events seems
TO indicate that as time goes on. an
eVen greater spontaneous cordially
may characterize the relations be-
tween h Northern nations.
M yeti is not a political union.
Although keen thinkers may con-
slider that dream fascinating, it does
not at this time admit of practicable
fty, and recent discussion at the peace
congress apparently completely disre-
CARDS the idea Of a political feder-
alton in the North.
National Traits Vary.
The reasons for impracticability Of
a federation proposal are several:
1t must, first, be kept in mind that.
the national traits of each people are
decisively different. A u%nif1cation Of
these nations would be more 4ike the
former Austro-H Hungarian de-national-
even conditions in Switzerland or in
the far less homogeneous United
States.
Second. the natural inclination of
individuals and. masses to strive for
superiority might eventually lead to
the creation Of a danger possibility
even though the jealousy among ma
tions may be considered, from a GER
tain point Of view, a comparatively
Indifferent matter. Recent events
have sufficiently. emphasized the fact
that all nations, or groups Of nations,
recognize competition on a large scale
