The fortress was laid out In 1740 by the Swedish admiral, Count Whremverd, whose body Is Jjnt'ied inside the walls. All the islands are connected by pontoon bridges, and there is an iron bridge leading Into the Finnish capital itself. The SkAtudden fortress covers an island one-half mile long and a quarter mile wide. The Island Is linked to the mainland by a stone pridge. Skatudden Is three miles from Sveaborg. Both fortresses form the main defense of Ilelsingfors and are always strongly garrisoned. Sveaborg was bombarded by a combined French and British tleet In the Crimean war. To reach that goal toward which wo arc pressing forward—the government of the multitudes—we must first acquire the knowledge that comes from universal education. the wisdom which follows practical experience, that personal Independence and self respect befitting men who acknowledge no superior, self control to replace that external control which democracy rejects, respect for the law, obedience to the lawful expressions of the public will, consideration of the opinions and interests of others equally entitled to a voice in the state, a loyalty to the abstract conceptions of'one's country as inspiring as that loyalty to personal sovereigns which has so illumined the pages of history, the subordination of personal interests to the public good and love of justice. mercy, liberty and order. RAILWAY WILL FIGHT. Thnt Mr. Hearst would run us an independent nominee without respect to the attitude of the Democratic convention is what had been believed all along by those persons who had paid attention to the trend of tlio Hearst sentiment In this state. The proceedings in the league's meeting left no room for any one to doubt that such would be the policy followed. The state committee of the Independence league formulated an address to Mr. Hearst demanding that he put himself at the head of the independent movement and issued a call for a state convention to meet In tills city on Tuesday, Sept. 11.

Lenders in the Independence league, who are in a position to know his views, say positively that lie will run. Tliey are equally positive in declaring that a refusal by the regular Democratic state convention to indorse him will not affect hip plans in the least. The fact Is the whole programme of the Hearst leaders has been framed along independent lines—on the supposition that Mr. Hearst, as the league's candidate for governor, would have to "go it alone." Many, if not a majority, of the leaders seem inclined to believe that he will be stronger with the voters running thus than he would be If indorsed by the Democratic convention.
