	Klas Pontus Arnoldson - Biography
		Klas Pontus Arnoldson (October 27, 1844-February 20, 1916), the Swedish journalist, pacifist, and proponent of Scandinavian unity, was a man of humble origin.
		Arnoldson was also a liberal in political philosophy, committed to the practical application of the principle of democracy and individualism.
		When Arnoldson was named a Nobel peace laureate in 1908, some Swedish newpapers were incensed, saying that the award was an «outrage» against Sweden, a disgrace to «every Swedish man who takes pride in his national honor», and, to add injury to insult, was paid for with «Swedish money» given by a Swedish countryman.

		Since its beginning in 1901, the prize has often gone to scoundrels and simpletons.
		In 1908, the committee honored Klas Pontus Arnoldson, a man whose chief contribution to peace was a worldwide petition calling for the abolition of armed forces.
		In 1934, precisely when clear thinking and rearmament in the democracies might have stopped Nazi aggression dead in its tracks - with almost no casualties - the Nobel committee honored Britain's Arthur Henderson, the world's foremost advocate of disarmament.
