SWEDES ARE ONG SU ERING, Thoroughly Aroused. However, in Opposition to Norway's Demands. (8pecial Correspondence to the Amsaclated Press.) STOCKHOLM, Sept. 15.—King Oscar has just left for Norway. It is believed his majesty’s presence in Christiana at this eriti- cal period will gain many friends for the con- servatives, There is probably no nation more patient and forbearing than Sweden, or, in other words, more slow to feel humiliation; but everything las a limit, and that limit has now been reached. Your correspondent does mot write this as his own belief, but bases his state ent upon the many inter- views he has had with prominent people botl in Stockholm and Gothenburg.

But, even If the lesser number of inhabi- tants in Norway be taken in consid- eration, the Norwegian people pay far from a proportionate part of the expenses ol the standing army, the navy, the foreign repre- sentation and the salarics of members of the royal house. As to cqual rights, the Nor- weglan people have a much freer constitution —the freest in Kurope—than the Swedes, and, in regard to the demand of Norway for ler own consuls, the plain truth is that a very large majority of the mutual con- sulates are now occupied by Norwegians.

It was not a political, not even a factional fight 1t was a moral contest for weeks and months, and during the last few days it became in- tensely personal. Colonel Breckinridge was fighting for life, and he never made such specches or displayed such executive ability in organization. He marshaled every man he could command, but he could not command the women. They had no votes, but th were the controlling element in the fight At the Owens headquarters tonight the claims have run up from 400 at 7 o'clock to two, three, four and even five times that plurality, and they say in their rejoic “The ladles did it.” The ladies could not get ward workers to thelr prayer meetings or other meetings, but their organization of committees of one gen- erally got promiscs at home out of voters who needed no watching on entering th booths, With the saloons closed, the women praying and the hest influences all aroused there was a quiet election, With extremc and bitter fecling at their highest pitch The greatest surptise of the day was the good order everywhere. There were some personal encounters, but not as many as usual at closely contested clections. There was, however, great precaution to prevent trouble. Old friends and neighbors have been having® thelr Innings, and they wanted only the voting today. If the Breckinridge men had enforced their challenge rule as strietly as they expected there would have been trouble. So clearly had the canvassing and polling been done that the challengers knew how almost all the democrats stood, and they could have Kept many from voting. It was generally be- lieved the republican managers favored Breckinridge, as they thought in the event of his nomination their candid hopeless. Very few republicans, however voted. As many precincts are long distances from the telegraph offices, the complete returns will not likely be known before morning, but Owens seems to be so much in the lead that it will not require the Ccomplete returns to settle the result.

Owen county is conceded to Settle by about 1,500 plurality, as Breckinridge polled a much larger vote there than expected.
