tfi drmf lr q am tons that eonfront ui,
- f d with our w possessions, the
-.tm ii ; f great .i merclal and Indus
trial combinations, the regulation of Immi
gration, improvement in political methods,
the necessity for greater honesty and ef
ficiency In government, whether municipal,
state or national, and the International ques
tion of our relations with the other powers
of the earth, are problems with which the
representatives of the people are now deal
ing and In which every citizen has directly
and indirectly a share.
Evils Are Exaggerated.
Some features of our attitude toward those
problems are unfortunate. Deplorable as are
certain tendencies In our commercial and
industrial affairs, in educational methods, in
moral and ethical teaching they furnish no
warrant for sweeping deductions that dis
tort the facts. We magnify and exagge
rate, and in our hurry and excitement we
miss the true perspectives of life. We deal
too much in the superlative of denunciation,
and blind our eyes to the good that Is all
about us. Deep down under all hastily
formed public opinion are the sound Judg
ment and sober common sense of millions of
sturdy and reasonable and farseclng Amer
icans, who believe in the strength of our in
stitutions, in our ability to work out our
problems, and always, in the last analysis,
in our capacities for self-government and
that splendid citizenship can be made an
irresistible force in the battle of civic right
eousness. There should be more conservatism in our
consideration of public questions, not the
conservatism of Inertness or indecision but
the conservatism that is peri-minded to sug-.
gestlon and Insists upon hcarinc both sides
of a question. Wc need to cultivate the
calmness that typifies strength of purpose,
depth of thought, soundness of Judgment.
Wc shall then substitute energy for exag
geration, and sanity for sensationalism.
There will be more consideration and less
clamor. In this spirit we shall be better
able to deal with the questions before us,
Justly and fearlessly.
We shall encourage those policies which
recognize the fact that material prosperity
is but a poor and empty thing If accom
plished through any sacrifice of the moral
sense of the public; and we shall see back
of all and over all. as the commanding neces
sity of our times. Insistence upon obedience
to law, from the highest to the humblest.
Duty of Individual Citizens.
The representatives of the people can do
their best work only when encouraged and
tupportcd In their efforts to approach these
questions In the right spirit. The burden
of responsibility Is not all with them. The
people must do their part. If we are to
.have cleaner political methods, the begin
ning must be made in. the primary and the
tewn meeting, and the citizen must con
tribute his share in his own sphere, how
ever humble it may be, if he is to be con
sistent when he demands a high standard
of those who represent him in the various
grades of official life. And so it is with
the citizen's relation to these other prob
lems. Wherever he touches them, even in
their smaller aspects, he must do the duty
that lies at his hand. The firmer we fix
these facts In our minds, the healthier will
be our public sentiment.
The demand of the hour is for unceasing
warfare upon corruption in all its aspects,
but we must always remember that reforms
to be practical must be reasonable. There
must be Individual participation in every
movement for civic betterment. The citizen
must not shirk his duty. lie must help to
Improve the agencies through which such
betterment is to be secured. The influence
cf a free press must not be Impaired nor
must the great body of American newspapers
amongst the noblest agencies of enlighten
ment and civilization be Judged by a few
which have prostituted their high calling to
Ignoble uses.
A higher standard for our Judiciary: fewer
laws and better enforcement of them; a
wider public appreciation of the essentials of
democracy and of the principles upon which
this Government was founded, will help us
to the solution of the problems before us,
and as the very basis and foundation of our
national life we must conserve those forces
which insure the efficiency of our schools
and safeguard the purity of our homes.
Every village and hamlet, every munici
pality, over' commonwealth, must assume
ts share and make its contribution to the
general welfare. Among the greatest of
the forces for progress In the struggle for a
broader and Juster national life will be the
Influence of the men and women of educa
tion. Congressman TV. H. McKinley, of

CASE FOR HAGUE COURT
Ixmdon Papers Hope Xorvray "Will
Xot Force Disunion.
LOXDOX, June S. The revolution in
Norway, although anticipated and
peacefully effected, has come to Europe
with unexpected suddenness and there
Is asked with some anxiety whether It
will mean Immediate complications.
Had Russia not' been involved In a dif
ficult war In the Far East, it is doubt
ful whether Norway would have taken
the present momentous step, which Is :
not likely to be regarded with ap
proval by European powers. Emperor
William's omission of his customary
tour of Norway this year seems to in
dicate his disapproval of the Norwegian
policy, and the fact that the coup
d'etat is not unlikely to eventuate In
the establishment of a Norwegian re
public would alone be a reason why the
step should not commend Itself to the
monarchla.1 powers.
It 13 nowhere thought that King
Oscar will consent to a Junior member
of his family becoming King of Nor
way. This- proposal is regarded as an
attempt to palliate the blow to the de
posed King, and the opinion of English
newspapers is that the suggestion is
quite impracticable.
In their editorials this morning Lon
don newspapers comment on -the ex
treme seriousness of the step Norway
has taken, many expressing the hope
that there may yet be time for Norwe
gians to reconsider their position and
endeavor to adjust the difficulty re
garding the consular question by ar
bitration or other means so as to pre
serve the union, which. It is contended,
is necessary .for the welfare of both
countries. The prospects of such an
adjustment, xiowever, appear to be of
the slightest.
The consular difficulty Is supposed
to be only an outward manifestation
of the deep-seated separatist aspira
tions of the majority of Norwegians.
It is pointed out that the constitution
makes express provision for the over
ruling of the royal veto in cases where
it can be proved by three seperately
elected Storthings to be In antagonism
to the national will. Therefore It can
not be assumed that the King exceed
ed his powers.
British sympathy appears to be
strongly on the side of Sweden and
King Oscar, more specially as an Eng
lish Princess is abonut to marry a
Prince who is in direct line of succes
sion to the Swedish throne.
Should King Oscar consent that one
of the Princes of the house of Berna
dotte become King of Norway and the
two countries be able to conclude an
offensive and -defensive alliance. It
It would be regarded here as a satisfac
tory arrangement, but this Is little
hoped for. and the Morning Post ex
presses the very general view In sug
gesting that it Is eminently a case for
The Hague tribunal.

STOCKHOLM, Sweden, June 7. King
Oscar has sent a telegram to Premier
Michelsen as follows:
"Have received the communication of
the Council of State, and record the roost
decided protest against the methods and
action of the government.
King Oscar has telegraphed to M.
Berner. President of the Storthing. In
forming him that he had telegraphed to
Premior Michelsen, emphatically protest
ing against the action of the Council of
State.
DENMARK EXPECTS XO WAR
Xclthcr Sweden Xor Norway Is Dis
posed to Fight.
COPENHAGEN. June 7: The announce
ment that the Norwegian Storthing by
a unanimous vote had declared that It
could no longer acknowledge King Oscar
as King of Norway was received here
sot with surprise, but with the same spirit
of approval and determination that pre
vailed In Ghristlania. It is certain that
the present government, whose plans
were carefully studied and laid, will at
once taae stops 10 secure inc recognition
of Norway as a separate state by all for
elgn powers.
King Oscar up to the present has not
given any indication of tho course he
Intends to pursue beyond protesting
against today's proceedings.
While, of course, popular feeling la
Sweden and Norway runs high, there
has been no breach of good order any
where. The people for some time have
realized that a crisis was at hand, and
were prepared for today's denouement.
From the highest to the lowest the same
quiet and determined demeanor is no
0 cable.
In official Swedish circles here the As
Eoclatcd Press has been Informed that
it is absolutely certain Sweden will not
use force against Norway, and that
every effort will be made to avoid a re
sort to arms. The Norwegians take the
same position, but It is openly stated
that, should Sweden choose such a course.
the Norwegians will not shirk the Is
sue.
Fridtjof Nans en, the Arctic- explorer.
who some time ago entered actively into
Norwegian politics, said to the Associat
ed Press today that he desired no offi
clal post in the new government. It Is
understood, however, that N arisen may
be appointed a special envoy to the for
eign powers in ordor to .secure their
recognition of Norway s new status.
LOOKS OX WITH HUNGRY EYES
Russia Would Like to Annex, but
Is Busy Elsewhere.
ST. PETERSBURG, June 7. The strug
gle between Sweden and Norway and the
prospects of a dissolution of the union,
one of the present objects of which was
the making of common cause against
Muscovite influence, is followed with
close attention In Russia. Ever since
Peter the Great broke the might of
Sweden at the battle of Poltava in 1769
and annexed the Baltic provinces and
part of Finland, Russian policy has been
directed toward weakening the power of
her ancient enemy.
After the completion of the annexation
of Finland by Alexander I. many Russian
statesmen looked forward to obtaining an
Ice-free port on the Norwegian coast. A
narrow tongue of Finland cuts deep into
Swedish-Norwegian territory, at the end
of which there Is 18 miles of deep water
and the harbor of Lyage. Russia, with
in recent years, has been active on this
frontier country, where railways have
been surveyed, and Slav influence Is so
strong there that fisherman and other
Norwegian inhabitants . refer their dls
putes to th Russian authorities.
The sympathy of Sweden for the Finns
In the struggle against the Russlflcatlon
of Finland has been a thorn in the side
of Russia, which naturally regards with
complacency the diminution of Swedish
prestige.
Russia, however. Is in no position to
take an active interest in the quarrel at
the present time. Indeed, the impression
here Is that there wilL be no open con
diet and Russia will probably use hep In
fluence to refer a settlement of the trou
ble to an International tribunal.

LONDON. June S. The Copenhagen

3LVN WHO HEADS REVOLUTION
Michelsen Has Long Led Liberals
nnd Carried Many Reforms.
Peter Christian H. M. Michelsen. the
Prime Minister and head of the provis
ional government, has been leader of the
Liberal party for about 12 years. Several
years ago Mr. Michelsen advocated a Jury
system similar to that of the United
States, and it was due largely to his In
fluence that the reform was carried. An
other reform with which he has been
identified Is the extension of the suffrage.
Universal manhood suffrage Is now the
rule In Norway, and a much larger per
centage of the women vote there than in
the United States.
.Mr. Michelsen also led the movement
for Parliamentary reform. Under the old
system election districts were large and
four representatives were returned from
each district. The new law makes the
districts smaller and provides for the
election of one representative from each
district.
Mr. Michelsen was born In Bergen,
Norway. March 15, 1S37. He studied for
the bar at the University of Christlanla
and after his graduation returned to his
native city and began the practice of law.
The politics of the day. both local and
International. Interested him greatly,
and he took a conspicuous part In the
elections.
In 1963 Mr. Michelsen again was elected
to the Storthing and since that time has
been a conspicuous figure In Scandinav
ian politics.

Riotous Meeting.
SECRETARY HAS NO REPORT
President King: Says New Officers
.Must Be Elected at Once or a

Appointed.
SAX FRANCISCO. Jane 7. (Special.)
There was a riotous meeting of the
shareholders oC the "White Swan Mines
Company today. Dr. C. II. Kins', of
"Wabash, Ind. president of the com
pany, arrived in San Francisco Monday
morning last, especially to attend the
annual meeting, which was to elect "and
hear the reports of the treasurer, Ole
Scar, of Lake Mills, la., and the secre
tary. C. H. Stuller of Baker City, Or.
Dr. King, speaking of the meeting,
said that while the treasurer reported
that there was $1800 cash on hand the
secretary made no report. King said
that the Illinois Club, composed of Illi
nois men owning Interests in the -White
Swan, sent their proxies out to San
Francisco, but at the meeting it was
noted that they were Incorrectly dated.
Upon this showing, said King, Secre
tary Stullcr quickly objected to allow
ing the proxies to be voted. This was
In defiance of King's ruling.
In the midst of the argument the pre
senter of the proxies walked out from
the meeting. Stuller, having sufficient
proxies, elected his own ticket, on
-which -were Dr. King and Scar as offi
cers. "When the two found that they
could not harmonize the factions, they
Immediately resigned their offices.
Both King and. Scar admitted that
the-conditions were such that but two
alternatives present themselves either
to call another stockholders meeting at
once and elect new officers or place the
company in the hands of a receiver.
During the interview with Dr. King
and Scar, an expressman entered the
office and was given two trunks on the
presentation of an order. There Is. some
trouble over the whereabouts of the
books.
The company's property Is In Baker
City, Or., and -was once controlled by
3stop Balliet. -who was sent to Jail for
fraud.

he said, as he did nob think it was nec
essary for her to work at such business.
He was employed by a contracting paint

good salary, he said.
Mrs. Kilmer stated that Kilmer threat
ened to kill her unless she would go with
him and do his bidding.
"All I said that might be construed
as a threat to kill was that she was my
wfe, that I had a right to her atten
tions, and I asked her If she wanted me
to kill myself and everyone else," said
Kilmer.
After hearing the testimony. Judge
Hogue conferred with Deputy District
Attorney Haney and A. "Walter "Wolfe,
and it was agreed that If Kilmer would
leave Portland and agree never to again
molest his wife, he might go.
