of indigestion. As he had complained
of the same distressing feeling en- route

The body was not quite cold and the
physician who was present decided that
death occurred about three hours pre-
vious TO the discovery. The expression
of the face indicated that death had
been painless. lie lay upon his back,
with several pillows propped up behind
his head. His coat was wrapped around
his shoulders, AS if having felt cold, he
had arisen and put ii half on and then
gone back to bed. and his hands rested
on his pillow. one on each side of his
head, as if he had been holding the
coat about his neck. His feet, however,
were partly upon the floor, giving him
the aspect of half sitting. The verdict
of the coroner's jury was that death
resulted from ccrebal hemorrhage. The
friends and relatives Of the deceased
objected to a complete post.mortem ex

Rise Up, Mr.. Blaine.

1t is now Senator Blaine's time to
rise and explain Heretofore he has
been quite free in charging BULLDOG
ing, and other election irregularities
to the Democracy, particularly to those
residing south of Mason and Dixon's
line. 1t is now the bloody shirt Sena-
tors time to explain how he conducts
elections in Maine. We have already
had some very interesting specimens
of the manner in which things are
managed by Republicans in Mas
sachusetts and Rhode Island to con-
troll the ballot and secure Federal su-
premacy, furnished by the investiga-
tions of the Wallace committee. And
now the Boston Globe has been max
ing very extensive inquiries through
out the State of Maine to ascertain
how far honesty in politics prevails in
that far-dOwn region, and is now Civ
ing the results of the inquiries, which
certainly do not pan out very credit
ably to Mr.. Blaine and his party. 1t
unearths a state of affairs that will
throw in the back ground the worst
features that the Senator's brilliant
fancy has been able to give to the ter
rible state of society existing in the
Southern States. and so graphically
detailed in his bloody-shirt speeches.
That the Senator is capable of draw.
ing very largely upon his imagination
for material to attack the Southern
Democracy and fire up the smolder-
ing embers of Northern fanaticism
and hate, We have had many illustra-
tions. He will now be called upon to
meet realities in the testimony, verbal
and documentary, collected by the
Globe from all sources in Maine, and
which show state Of society that for
tyranny and reckless disregard OF
fair elections and the rights of the
people, is discreditable in the extreme.
The evidence in possession of the
Globe consists of records of the elec-
tions, official documents of the Courts,
sworn statements of the citizens and
written instructions Of Republican lead
ers and committees. and they show
that the late boasted Republican vic
tory in Maine was obtained at fear
full cost of political infamy. Indeed,
nothing so subyersive of the rights Of
the citizen, and so disastrous TO good
government, has been brought to the
attention of the people since the histo.
~ of the Presidential steal was given
TO the world, as will be furnished in
the details which the Globe is now Civ
ing TO the public in proof of the brib-
cry, intimidation, direct purchase,
and the forced participation of the
Courts in these efforts of the stalwarts
to maintain their political ascendency
in Maine.
