[ New X. oik Herald Cable Special to tlio Bii : : . | The stingElu between tlio Danish eoxernmcnt and thu Danish house of representatives Has aroused a most billet foiling tliioiiu'liout the country , heading politicians assure mo that unless Mr. Kstiup , the Danish consul vatlxopremiei , xxho has been In power since Juno , 1S75 , re- tdsns , a national uprising Is likely to tike place , tlio eventual lesult of xxhich xxould bo thedoxvnfall , notonlvof the ministry , but of King Christian , xx ho has become personally Identified with all the anti-constitutional nieasnies ot Estrtip's ministry. A Danish revolution is noxv Impending and Is likely to cause ngcncinl Scandinavian uprising , dur- Inir xxhich monarclilal principles could only lie maintained bv the Intervention of Rus sian or ( icrmaii troops. Contiu coups xvould bo sure to take place In these countries , cans- Jug a general movement throughout Europe Ilkothatof 1SI8. The entire liberal patty at } Denmark is to-day under the supreme con trol of Mr. Bcrir , speaker of the hotwo of rep-j rcsentativcs , and only recently released from- prison. Mr. Berg Is a sort of Danish O'Cou - ncll. in : xxini.ns ixtxtr.xii : roxvKii. A single xv old from him xvould start a revolution. Berg Is ono of the most Rplcndld orators In Europe. The parllaj menlary debates between Berjr and Eslrup Imx'oall the skilled finish of tlio fencing con test between Hamlet and 1/vrtos. Beig has availed himself ol the present dissolution of parliament to retire tor n few days to his country icsldence on the Island of Bogy , Routh of Zealand , near the cost of Palstor , a day's journey from Copenhagen. Monday morning at 11 o'clock I landed at Bogj , in a small sail boat , after four hours sail fiom Yardlngborjj. A Imlfhoiir xvalltacioss fields , 11 lied xvlth fat sheep , coxx-s nnd sxvlne , all feeding Beaeofiilly together , brought mo to a largo white house , xxlth a mast and spais like n frigate , This xvas the navigation hchool founded by Berg several years ago , and txvo graduates of xvhlch xxcro noxv thriv ing Noxv Yoik pilots. Near by xvas a small "whltoxvaslicd stone cottage. I knocked at , the door and asked thu blue eyed Danish Kill , "Is Mr Berg at home ? " A largo xxhlte haired gentleman , xvlth a head like Socrates , forthwith appeared and xvclcomcd mo to fBopcy. This xvas the statesman xvho liolds .to-day In his hands tlio fate of Denmark. Mr. Berg xvore a clo e fitting suit of dark clothes and a whlto muslin tie , and held In his hand a xvldu brimmed Panama hat His cjes are a blight blue , he xx oars gold specta cles , and his xvhltu beard Is closely trimmed. Ho speaks n little English and German. Tlio followingconxeisatlon took place In Danish : Correspondent What do the Danish lib erals want ? Mr. Berg Nolliing more nor nothing less than the right accoidcd to the Danish people by the Danish constitution. Wo stand solely upon the Danish constitution. Wo xvanta ministry xv hose acts shall bo In accoidanco with the constitution and based upon the xvill of the majority" of the house of1 repre sentatives. Wu xxant , In fact , simply a Con stitutional anil parliamentary government , such as exists in England and In the United States. Correspondent Is theio any connection between the Danish libcials and thoaocial- IstsVMr. Mr. Berg The liberal party is quite dis tinct trom tlio socialist. SOCIALISM HAS xo HOLD upon our people. There are only txvo social ist members elected to thu folkethlng ( house t of loprescntatlves ) , and their electors are in K. Copenhagen , outside of xvhich socialism , ns undeistood In other parts of Europe and America , Is nnknoxvn. 1 xvlsh to bo xery clear on this point , as our enemies nexer lose an opportunity to confound the liberal party xvlth the socialist and thus taint us xvlth qual ities that xvould dcprlxe us of the sympathy of right-minded men in Europe and.'Amurica. Our folkethlng consists of 103 members , of ( /which eighty-live are liberals , fifteen are con servatives , and two are socialists. It Is , hawox'cr , only fair to say that the txvo social ist members alxvays vote xvlth the liberal party , and even they do not think of resort- In S to any but purely parliamentary meas ures. > Correspondent IIovv have the ministry violated the constitution ? Mr. Berc They have violated both the spirit and the letter of the constitution. I I xvlllgive you a few Instances as samples. Article 25 of our con stitution empowers the ministry in the case of extreme urgency to make pro visional laws and to take money from the ticasury to carry on affairs until the folkethlng can bo conxoned. Noxv Mr. Estrup's min istry have used this clause In the constitution as a xvcapon to coxorn Denmark In deliancn of tlio paillamentary majority. Mr. Estiup dissolves the folkcthing nnd then enacts laxvs that ho knoxv.s ate directly opposed to their xxishes. For Instance the budget law , a few weeks URO , xxas printed xxhllo tlio folkothlng was In session. Then the folkethlng xvas ills- bolxed by loyal decieo and 11 vu minutes after the dissolution , and while the mcmbms were mill In the building , the government decided * thu budget law and thcieby took money out of the treasury for building fortifications and creating u coips of gen d'armerlo and for gagging the press and tor doing many things notoriously against thu wishes of the house * 6t ropiesentitlxes. Theio xvas certainly no Urgency , and this Is merely ono out of thu many instances In distinct violation of the constitution. _ Correspondent floW far Is the king ro- - spouslblo for this ? * Mr. Berg That Is a question xvhlch I xvlsh yon would not ask mo. , Correspondent Do you think the present 1 crisis can bo settled xvlthout bloodshed ? Mr. Berg I huvo a firm hope In the sound * common sense of the Danish people , xvho know that violent measures would only bo UIMPICIAI : : , 10 DKXMAIIK'S KXUMIKS. The fact Is that from 1813 until IbTJ the liberals have been In n mlnoilty. But ex en then xxo xxero told , " ( iet to be a majoilty and you xvlll bo In power. " Everything vxns , In fact , conducted upon paillauumtary prlncl * piesnnd Mt.IiMnip Inaugurated his own con. flUUitlonal and anti-parliamentary policy In 187ft. Mi. Estrup's policy has continued , and nearly all the old conservatives , men like Kiieger , .Mound , Klein , Maililg nud Fenger , haxo all como Into the liberal tanks. Thu conservatives now consist merely of a clique of individual land oxvncis and military func tional jus. Ex en Pilnco Bismarck lules with cbnfoimlty to at least tlio tecUnlcalities of the parliamentary system , but Estiup rides rpuuh shod oxer both parliament and consti tution. The Danish people are fhmlyio- btilved to have their constitution lespccted uud to lia > tt U distinctly understood thut NX hen the majority of the follccUiing have no coulidenco In the ministry , then such mluls- try l.s out of ollico. Correspondent What xvere you Impris oned for ? Air. Berp 1 have been thinking hard .for e'.x ' mouths to try nndiiudout , but lliav lot yet succeeded In doing so. What would , -ottr countrymen say If your speaker ot the lonseof rcpre enbHxcs xvere suddenly to bo arrested without any specific charge made against him and thrown Into prison ? Mr. Berg then conducted mo to Iho dining room wheio I paid my respeets to Mine. Bore ind her cliartnlng little blonde-haired and jluo-uyod dauithlers of ten and eight years of age. Aftui a sumptuous breakfast Mr. Berg showed me over his nautical college and polntel out tome Iho Ameiican lias ? living ivcr the house nf HelnsliiK Ibsen , Arctic sea captain , formerly of San Franclsen. At the > Ior xxo found another natlxe ot Bosy named lluvl , xxliosobrothcrs-ln-lnxv , named Wolto , 10 told me. xveie pilots In New York. Mr. Ueigaftcrwaids sailed with me oxet to a lish- in ; toxvn In Falster , called Stiibbekjocbing , xv here I took leaxe of Iho eloquent and able expounder of the Danish constitution , A VISIT ro nsini'i' ' . At Copenhagen I called upon Mr. Kstrtip , the pi him minister of Denmark , whoie- petted that he was unable to exptess any xiuws on Danish politics for publication , but xvould bu glad to recei'e a private visit. 1 found Mi. L'strup to be one of the most xx illy and charmliiL' men that 1 haxcexci met. Ho speaks Fiench and Geiman lluontly. He has clear , penetrating blue ejcs and flaxen hair , lie wuarsu full blonilu moustache and Ids jaxv nnd lips nnd nose orostilklngly Ilko these of General Sheridan. 1 afterward met a piomlncnt Danish land owner whose xievxs arc thosii ofthe king , Iho court and of Mr. Estrup. This gentleman said : "Dunmaik Is a small country We haxo on onu side autocratic Uussla and on the other monarchical Germany. Ills majesty , King Christian , has to be tipo'i good terms xv Ith his neighbors. The true Interests of Denmark are to live In accord xxlth the system of the iiionnrchlc.il government of eastern Europe. The lllxual alms of men like that political buccaneer , Berg , aio xvlld and chimerical and can only xxoik disaster and ruin to Denmark. Moreover , neither Russia or Germany xxotild over nlloxv a Dan ish lepubllc to exist under their very noses. As for the socialists , theio are not two thousand icat socialists in the xv hole ot Denmark. " ANoriir.it i.inr.u.u. . 1 next called upon Mr. Vlggo Horup , vice- president of the folkethtng , and chairman of tliocommltteo of ways and means and proprietor of the Polltlken. the great liberal newspaper of Scandinavia. Hr. Horup is iibout CO j cars of age. Ho Is a typical Dane In appearance with xcry blonde complexion , bltio ejes , partly concealed behind gold .spec tacles and flaxen hair. In luply to my In quiries Mr. Hotupsaid : "When parliament meets in October theio xvlll bo plenty of vitu peration nud violent language , but the sound common sense of the Dan ish people should piuvent any recourse - course to bloodshed. The liberal party Is eveiy day calnlnc sticngth and for the past txxo years Includes such conscrx-atixes as In othei countries form the centre and right centre. I don't think that In the ox out of a conflict bctxveon the Dan ish people and the government the Danish pcoplu xxould lucelvo much help fiom Noi- xvay or Sxx'eden , noron Iho other hand xxould Gcimany stir to uphold the Danish govein- ment , although It Is by no means piobablo that either Germany or Kttssia xvottld penult the creation of a Danish lopubllc. " I next called upon a prominent socialist xvho lixed In Copenhagen. He tola mo : "Wo are working xvlth the llburals noxv because xxo aie too weak to xvork alone , but xxo count upon the violent and reactionary steps of the ptcscnt ministry to dtixe thousands of Danes xx ho arc noxv merely liberals Into our ranks. Then by common action In Denmark , Hol land and Belgium xve can become the nu cleus of a grand International movement for the regeneration of northern Etiiopo. " i.v nni'r.Y TO MY Tir.iaicAi'jnc : : INQUIRY , Bjornstjerno I5jornson , the greatest llvlns Scandinavian autlioi , says : "I am , heart and soul , -with the liberal party of Denmaik In reference to the position ot King Christian. " A piomlneiU member of the Masonic fra ternity told me "a single xxord fiom Iho king xvould noxv avert Iho impending storm , but holssunoundedby courtleis and paia- sltes xvho conceal from him the truth , and If at raie intervals any ono presumes to plx'o the king some advice , the king at ouco lays back his ears , puts out his fore legs and kicks out violently from behind. The croxvn prlnco Is a Free Mason and Is rather popular , but the days of the dynasty are probably num bered. Our leaders nro anxious to separate the royal family from the unpopular ministry , but If the people once rise they will sweep away not only the ministry , but the dynasty xvlth it" It is a significant fact that during the visit of the king of Portugal tugal , King Christian xvas received xvith cold silence by the thousands of neoplo gathered togethci in tlio streets to see the arrival. A few cheers , however , greeted the arrival of the crown princo. King Christian to-day Is very much In the same position as Charles L of England before the English revolution.

Wo bollex'u in American soil for Ameiican citizens , and are opposed to non-iusident aliens becoming land owncis. The public domain should bu reserved as homesteads for actual settlers , and the accumulation of laigo tracts or bodies of land In the handof cor- poiatlons or Individuals should bo discour aged ; and In tlio case.s of land giants to rnihoadcoiporntlons , when saideoipotations have tailed to comply xvitli the conditions of said grants , the laud should be fotlelten to thu general government and held for thubune- lit ot actual settlers. Wo beliuve in the piotoellon of Ameiican labor and denouneo as unwise and unpatri otic the attcmuts to embody in our national legislation the principles of treu trade. In telligent and piosuerous tree labor is the coinut stone on which our tree government is founded , and xxo protest against its being impoverished by competition xvitli the pio- dtictions ot thu underpaid labor of thu old xxorld , or degiadcd by the impnitatlou of heathen or pauper labor from China or any other portion ot thn xxorld. We bcllcxe. out soldluis anil sailors , In their hciolu defense ot the union In the latu xvar , placed the nation under a debt of obligation it can nuxei lepay , and Unit it is thu duty of the government to giant pensions and estab lish homes foi all such as are disabled or in xvant : and xvoappiovo thu course ot our re publican sunators and mumbuis ot congress lu v.otiti ! , ' pensions , and tlio action ot thu Illinois thhty-fourth assembly In making an apnropi lation tor a soldiers' homo. Wu realize the injustice in foiclnc the competition of couttact pi Ison labor upon the honest labor of the country , and urge upon ourle tslatois the enactment ot such laws as xvlll prevent it ; and xxe tavor the adoption of a Constitutional amendment on this sub ject at the coming election. Wo bulluxu It Isiightand the duty of the national govurnmout to pass laxxs legulatitig thu giuatralhoad corporations ot the eounttv. protecting thu peonlo fiom extortions and unjust discriminations , and xvu approve the Piinciples of the bill parsed by the United States senate known as the "Culloni bill , " and urge our senators and lupiostmtatix'es in congress to have haxu thu samu ungratted upon our national laxv. Under this fiee republic , xxhich is a cox-- eminent "by thu people and for the pcoplu , " the disciples ot aninchy can find no legiti mate excuse for propagating their treason able and disorganizing piinciples , and xxo de- notiucu such propagandists as unworthy of citizenship ; but xxo recognize the riirlit of all men of every culling to foi in organizations and associations to promote their mutual good and protection , and we favor such xvlso legislation as xvlll protect the rights of all , and promote that harmonv which ought alxxaya to pro vail between employe and cm- plover. That xve congratulate the people of Illinois upon the prompt conviction of the leaders In the attempt to debauch the billet box In Chicago at the late SMUG election.

He.solvi'd , That xvu sympathize ) xvitli nil peoplu In their struggle for liberty , and xro hope thu effort now bciiia madu by thu Irish people for homo rulu xv ill meet xvitli success , Bcsolved , That thu republican paiiy is now , us always , a party that hascontlnuoiisly advocated and promoted the elevation of the xxorklngman and the nil let of the oppressed. The record of that party Is the pledge that it xvlll continue to pass and oniorco such legis lation us shall protect all classes of labor producers from Injustice and oppression at thu hands of Individuals orcorpoiatlons.and guaidnl ) persons , without distinction , In the enjoyment of their civil and peisonal rights. That the present revenue s.stem of the state , under xvhlch small property holders be.ai mote than their Just share of the public burdens and largo property Interests it-main either wholly untaxed or dlsptopoi- Honately assessed , needs speedy revision and reform , and xxo iccommund to the next loglslature n careful consideration of thu rei > ort of the late revenue commission to the end that the present Inciptullty and Injustice In taxation may bo abolished.
