In.» Mint!» ‘ In recognising Norway as an equal member of the union It appears that Sweden was merely yielding to noon city. and that It was her intention subsequently to curtail the liberties of Norway and gradually fuse the two countries Into one Swedish awn. A struggle. therefore began which hu tested for ninety years. and which has retarded the progress of the two countries and somewhat estranged them front one another. But notwith- standing the constant friction the great work of national regeneration has proceeded uninterruptedly, and in regard to Industrial pursuits as well as mental achievements Norway now occupies a very creditable position among the nations of the world. In their struggle for unabridged po- litical equality with Sweden, the Nor- w'egiana have now arrived at the stage when the question of a separate con- sular service for Norway II to be de clded. A revision of the articles of confederation. or act of union, as It is called, was contemplated In the first half of the nineteenth century. and committees were appointed for the purpose In 1839,1164 and last In 1891. but nothing resulted from their labors. In 1992, however the negotiations of the third recalled union committee of a Swede-Norwegian consular com- mittee. the result of whose labors was embodied in a so-cailed “com- munique" subsequently published. by a protocol prepared In a "Joint session of the cabinets of Norway and Sweden. This protocol was laid before the storthing February 13 of the current. year, and by. it submitted to the Com- mittee on Constitutional Altairs. When reported upon and returned by too committee to the storthlng a decisive debate will take place, and a change of Ministry may be the result. as the storthlng will not ratify terms for a separate consular service that might hamper its future action In H card to another Important national issro—itrc appointment of a separate i'yregn Minister for Norway.
