NORSE-AMERICAN CENTENNIAL

T is fitting that Minneapolis as the
geographic center of the Norwegians
in America should be the place chosen
for the celebration of the N orse-Ameri­
can Centennial. This festival is being

observed under the auspices of the
"Bydelags" but practically every Nor­
wegian organization in the United States
is interested in it and is doing its utmost
to make it a success.

SLOOP-FOLK
July 4, 1825, fifty-two Norwegian emi­
grants, animated with some of the hardy
spirit of their Viking ancestors, sailed
from Stavanger on the little sloop
"Restaurationen."
October 9, three
months and six days later, they anchored
in New York harbor from where thev
went to Kendall, Orleans County, N. Y.
Here they founded the first important
Norwegian settlement in America. They
were not the first of their countrymen to
visit the land discovered by Leif the
Lucky. Norwegian seamen had sailed
along the Atlantic coast as early as 1619.
In 1634 a small settlement was m;:ide at
Bergen, New Jersey. But the "sloop
folk" were the forerunners of that large
body of Norwegian immigrants who were
to play such an important part in the
colonization of the new world. If vou
wish to read of their motives for coming,
their long romantic voyage, the "Sloop
baby" born on the ocean, of the earlier
investigations and later adventures of
their leader, Kleng Peerson, often called
the father of Norwegian immigration to
America.-consult Prof. R. B. Ander-·
son's T iie First Chapter of N one•egian
lmniiqration . .. or G. T. Flom's History
of N orzoegian I-mniig;-ation to the United
States. For a recent history see Dr. 0.
1\if. Norlie's History of the Norzvegian
People in America.
Today there are more people of Nor­
wegian birth or ancestry in the United
States and Canada than in all Norwav.
and no other class of immigrants has a;­
sumed so naturally American customs
and modes of thought. This is undoubt­
edly clue to the fact that mentally Ameri­
cans and Norwegians have many charac­
teristics in common. "Norway is the
turdily democratic country in the
said M. F. Egan, former mini. )enmark. And Norway is one
N"here the feudal system was nev1, where the land was held under
·ior, not even the king.

To commemorate the arrival of the
Norwegian immigrant and honor the
Norwegian pioneer of America is then
the purpose of the Centennial. Should it
not do more? We quote from the Dial,
"Our Scandinavian immigrants in their
eagerness to make Americans of their
children are too apt to withhold from
them the noble heritage of history and
literature which is their birthright. It
is perfectly easy to keep a child in full
possession of his sacred heritage without
in the least impairing his command of
the English language or making him any
less a good American citizen. We owe
much to the sturdy qualities of our Scan­
dinavian immigrants but we would owe
them much more if they were made to
recognize as a sacred obligation the pres­
ervation of their own cultural cqar­
acteristics." These cultural characteris­
tics are fine and important but we should
be unjust to the people we are honoring
should we omit to include here what they
valued most, their Lutheran church and
faith.
Surely this religious heritage
should be the most sacred, the most high­
ly-prized of them all. Will not the Cen­
tennial help to convince every Norwegian­
American of their "sacred dbligation" in
preserving these inheritances? This is in
keeping with the Centennial Committee's
aim which is to be able to set aside suffi­
cient funds to gather and preserve ma­
terial for the preservation of Norse his­
tory in America.
The Norse-American Centennial has
been officially recognized by four govern­
ments-the United States, Dominion of
Canada, Norway, and Iceland. The cele­
bration thus assumes an international
aspect. As such is it not also one of those
happy events which does away with na­
tional barriers, fo'&gt;ters a mutual under­
standing and respect between nations.
;rncl thus helps to promote that interna­
tional spirit of friendliness and good­
will which the world is seeking?

�WELL-KNOWN NORSE-AMERICAN NAMES

J TNorse-Americans
is, of course, the
in

undistinguished
the mass, who
through their labor and loyalty have made
by far the greatest contribution to the
life of their adopted country, but we wish
to point out a few-their names chosen
almost at random-who have distin­
guished themselves in their chosen field.
. Turning first to politics, we may begin
'early in our history. Haven't we heard
that John Hanson, the president of the
Continental Congress. was of Norse
descent? He probably was. Anyway,
there is no doubt about the "grand old
man of Minnesota," Knute Nelson, nor
is there any need of listing his virtues
and achievements. Surely no Norwegian
name has been so much a household wotd
in America as Andrew Volstead's. There
has been an epidemic of Norwegian gov­
ernors in the Northwest of late years. In
l\Iinnesota, one Norwegian of the third
generation, J. A. 0. Preus, retired to be
succeeded by another, Theodore Chris­
tianson. In North Dakota, A. G. Sorlie
takes the place of R. A. Nestos, a change
in name, but not in nationality. Carl
Gunderson of South Dakota is the fourth
Norwegian governor of that state, one
of his predecessors, Peter Norbeck, being
now a senator. J. E. Erickson, the new
governor of Montana, has for some time
taken an active part in politics. J. J.
Blaine of Wisconsin is half Norwegian.
In the American army, the Norse­
American who has won the highest rank
by his signal services in war and peace is
Brigadier-Gener.al Bjornstad. The best
loved is the courageous Colonel Hans
Heg of the 15th Wisconsin regiment. who
lost his Jife at the battle of Chickamauga ..
In engineering and science, we find
many men of achievement who have re­
ceived all or part of their technical train­
ing in their native land. Olaf Hoff, a
former resident of Minneapolis, .was the
inventor of a new method of tunneling
rivers, and constructed subways under
both the Detroit and Harlem rivers.
Elias Anton Cappelen-Smith is an au­
thority on the metallurgy of copper and
has greatly improved methods of extract­
ing copper from ore. The Mining and
l\1etallurgical Society of America found
him worthy of the society's gold medal.
The name Cappelen reminds us of the

man who was city engineer of Minne­
apolis for nearly thirty years, and in
whose honor the Cappelen Memorial
Bridge was named.
Leonard Stejneger has been head cura­
tor in the biological department of the
National museum in vVashington for a
generation and has written much on
ornithology and other zoological topics .
Among the many excellent physicians and
surgeons, let us mention only one, Ludvig
Hektoen, head of the department of
pathology in the University of C:hica�o.
The dental college of our own unrvers1ty
is among the best in the world, and its
head, Dean Alfred Owre is a Norwegian.
Jonas Lie heads the list of_ art�sts. I:Iis
pictures hang in many gallenes, rncludmg
the Metropolitan, and have won many
prizes. Olaf Brauner is the head of the
department of fine arts in Cornell. He
not only lectures and writes on art, but
models and paints as well. Among sculp­
tors of note are Sigvald AsbjyJrnsen and
Gilbert P. Riswold of Chicago. Jacob
Fjelde's statues are too well known in
Minneapolis to need comment. His no
less gifted son Paul is following in his
father's footsteps. The proposed monu­
ment to Colonel Hans Heg is modeled
bv him.
• In literature, Norse-Americans have
too often limited their audience by writ­
ing in their mother tongue.
A notable instance is the l\linnesotan,
C. E. Rolvaag, whose recent novel I de
dage has been highly praised. On the
other hand. H. H. Boyesen, teacher. lec­
tt1rer, critic, novelist and poet uses Eng­
lish as his medium of expression. Gun1,ar, ldyls of Norway, Goethe and Schiller
are examples of his work. Much is ex­
pected of the young author, Martha Os­
tenso whose first novel, Passionate
Fliqh't. won a $13,500 prize. Knut Gjer­
set;s History of the Norwegian People
and History of I celarnd are standards.
Thorstein Veblen's Theory of the Leisure
Class and other books on economics are
in the same class. Rasmus B. Ander­
son has contributed a Norse Jl.1 ythology
and several books on the Norse discovery
of America. Laurence Larson ) of the
University of Illinois is known as the
translator· of The King's Mirror as well
as author of a History of England, and of

FIRST NORWEGIANS
MINNEAPOLIS

IN

QNE Norwegian settler in St. Anthony in 1854,-,more Norwegians
in Minneapolis today than in any city of
Norway with the exception of Oslo and
Bergen, Norway's two largest cities.
The little company of brave people
who set out from their native land in the
sloop "Restaurationen" in 1825 to seek
their fortunes across the sea were not sat­
isfied to remain in one place after reach­
ing their destination. As the colony grew,
they began to push westward, and in 1845
we find a decided movement in this direc­
tion from settlements in \Visconsin.
In 1854 the first Norwegian arrived in
St. Anthony, and no records can be

JUNE

found of other settlers until ten years
later when a number of families arrived.
From that time on the Norwegian
immigration to 1\1inneapolis was steady .
Three families owned their own homes
in 1867. The same year the first Nor­
wegian church, Trinity Lutheran, was
founded, and in 1869 the second church.
Our Savior's Lutheran, was established.
Both of these churches are living and
active today.
In 1868 the first Norwegian newspaper
was published. From this time on the
Norwegians began to take active part in
municipal affairs, and we find our first
policeman, who later became county sher­
iff, appointed in 1870.
Out of the city's 18,000 population in
1870, 1,000 were Norwegians. They did
not colonize in groups, but spread through
all parts of the city. We find their names
prominent in the history of Minneapolis
as professional and business people, mem­
bers of important boards and generally
active in the development of the city.

THE FISHERMAN
BY MARTHA OsTENso

Then af fer all my fishing in the sea
With yellow, yellow nets of maid('11.·s hair
For fishes finical, of ivory,
And tortoises beshaded and ghost-rare,
I drau• my nets, and draw them like a strand
Of silken shine from out the water light.
A11d loop them in across the winking sand
A11d ·weave of them a gloomy 111a11tle bright.
As su11stones lying in a little pool
And looked upon by the first ·white11i11g star,
And now I wander inland where the cool
Calms of dew upon the evening are,
For fishes in the sea are silver-cold
And silver-pale as shavings of the 1noon,
And I would have a little thrush to hold
And I would hear a little thrush's tune.

�N ORWEGIAN M U S I C
T H E composers who stand as the chief
representatives of Norwegian music
are Grieg, Kj erul f, Svendsen and Sind­
ing. The mere mention bf Scandinavian
music brings immediately to mind the
name of Grieg, whose delightful composi­
tions are known and loved the world
oYer. He is perhaps the one outstanding
Norwegian composer, and excels in the
smaller forms of musical composition, in­
terpreting the spirit of the north through
hi s artistic use of the unique and charm­
ing folksongs which are the rich heritage
of the Norwegian people and which re­
flect so truthfully their vigorous, rugged
character.
Norway is a land of song and the Nor­
wegians emigrating to America imported
with them their love of music. Every­
where they have settled, their love for
choral music has been evidenced by the
founding of singing societies, which ,
when ably directed, have contributed
much to the musical life of America. The
first Norwegian singing society was
founded by pioneers about sixty years
ago in LaCrosse, Wisconsin. Some of
the prominent directors of choral singing
today are Ole Windingsta.9 of New York,
A lfred Paulsen of Chicago. and F. Melius
Christiansen of Northfield whom Minne­
sota is proud to claim as the director of
the famous St. Olaf choir. This organi­
zation is made up of students from St.
Olaf College, sons and daughters of Nor­
wegian farmers, for the most part, and
under the skillful leadership of Professor
Christiansen has won world-wide recog­
nition: and elicited the highest praise from
music critics. Everywhere they have sung
they have been most enthusiastically re­
cei ved and musicians and musical lay­
men have united in the most extravagant
praise of their work.
Professor Christiansen became music
director of St. Olaf College in 1 903 , and
it is clue to his wonderful ability as leader
that the choir has achieved such impres­
sive results. It is of interest to note
that he spent the years from 1 892- 1 894 in
l\Iinneapolis at the Northwestern Conser­
Yatory of Music, from which he gradu­
ated with highest honors. He has writ­
ten Practical M odula,tion. and School of

Choir Singing, composed Refornwtio11
Cantata and edited the St. Olaf Ch ofr
Series-selections from the repertoire of
the choir. A recent composition is a can­
tata composed for the Norse celebration
Norwegian-A merican Centennia.l Ca ntata
with text by B . J. Rothnem. A history
of the St. Olaf choir by E. E. Simpson
was published in 1 92 1 . These works may
all be found in the Music Room of the
Minneapolis Public Library.
Any discussion of Norwegian musical
activities in the United States must in­
clude mention of the famous violinist Ole
Bull , the "Paganini of the north" who
first brought the fame of Norway to our
country in 1 843. He is closely associated
with America, for he made several visits
here, married an American wife, and i n
1 852 founded a Norwegian colony in
Pennsylvania. This venture was a failure
and cost him his fortune. Ole Bull was
a man of intense individuality and in the
fifties of 'the last century made a romantic
appeal to thousands in this country who
saw in him an interpreter of the "dark
and true and tender" spirit of the north.
Though lacking in broad musicianship he
was a master of the tricks of violin tech­
nique and played his own compositions
with Wonderful skill and expression. One
beautiful song The Chalet Girl's Sunday
deserves to be mentioned. Ole Bull's
life was written by his wife, Sara
Bull. A statue of Ole Bull was erect­
ed some years ago in Loring Park, Min­
neapolis.
Another striking personality of whom
the Norwegian-Americans may be j ustly
proud is the well-known dramatic so­
prano, Olive Fremstad, the daughter of a
Norwegian father and a Swedish mother.
She came to America with her parents at
the age of twelve and for a time lived in
Minneapolis. She received her early edu­
cation here and in New York, later
studied in Germany, and made her first
operatic successes abroad, but has passed
the greater part of her life in America.
Mme. Fremstad was for many years a
star at the Metropolitan opera , New
York, and is famous for her interpreta­
tions of the great Wagnerian roles, Kun­
dry. Isolde. Bri.innhilde and others.

no institution has contributed more to a better understanding

between the United States and foreign
countries than has the American-Scan­
dinavian Foundation.
Established in
191 1 by Niels Poulson of Brooklyn, a.
poor Danish immigrant who grew
wealthy in this country, the Foundation
has for its purpose the development of
closer cultural and educational relations
between Scandinavia and the United
States. Starting with an annual income
of $5,000, it has grown, through other
contributions, until recently as much as
$100,000 has been available for its vari­
ous activities.
The Foundation has three main lines
of endeavor, directed from its New York
office : the exchange of students between
the United States and Norway, Sweden ,
and Denmark ; the furnishing of infor­
mation on Scandinavia to the press, libra­
ries , clubs, lecturers, and all others who
desire it ; and finally, the publication of
two series of books and a magazine for
the purpose of familiarizing Americans
with the best in Scandinavian !ife and
literature.
The Minneapolis Public Library has
copies of all the publications of the Foun­
dation. One series, the Scandinavian
Classics, comprises translations of the
true classics, ancient as well as modern ,
of Northern Europe. Norwegian works
included are Bj ornson's Poems and So11gs

and his A rnljo t Gelline ; Jonas Lie's
The family at Gilje, a novel of Norwegian
domestic life ; Ibsen's Early Plays, trans­
lated for the first time in English ; and
Norwegia n Fairy Tales, by Asbjornsen
and Moe.
Of the Scandinavian Monographs, the
second series, perhaps the most note­
worthy volume i s Scandinavian A rt. It is
the first comprehensive account of the
subj ect that has been produced in any
language. The section on Norwegian
art is written by Jens Thiis, director of
the National Gallery at Oslo. Wil­
liam Hovgaard's Voyages of the Norse­
men to A 111erica, • also in this series,
is the "best complete exposition of the
Norsemen 's voyages to America." All
the volumes in these series are ex­
amples of beauti ful printing and book­
binding.
The American Scandinavian Review is
a monthly magazine edited by Hanna

translator, of Norwegian ancestry. It is
to be found at the Franklin Branch of

fully illustrated with photographs and art

' Tis the mountain-peak's young father, who with ice-helm on his hea d,

Fierce he as the snow-storm fettered in the fjords constricted yawning,
Mild, too, as the m idnight sun that blossoms on his window-sill.
Warm his heart, though rough his will; in his voice the spring-floods th rill,

The collection describes in detail the management of the celebration and gives data on observances in Chicago, Canada, Boston, and Brooklyn. Letters and essays reveal the loyalty of Norwegian Americans to their cultural heritage and the rivalry among area groups of Norwegians in America. The celebration was initiated by the bygdelags. The chief officials were Gisle Bothne, S. H. Holstad, J. A. Holvik, Elisa P. Farseth, and Mrs. Wm. O. Storlie. Correspondents include Juul Dieserud, Knut Gjerset, Hanna Astrup Larsen, and O. M.
