For the first time since the right of
self-government was formally conferred
upon the people of this state by the con-
gress of the United States, and lmme-
dately denied to them by one branch of
the same body, the democratic party of
Montana assemblies in state convention
to voice the sentiments and declare the
policy of the honest majority of the
electors of this commonwealth. No
party ever had before it palmer and
more imperative duty. Since it's dele
gates last assembled in convention the
party has seen the workingman robbed
of his ballot, the rights of the majority
denied, the will of the people set at
naught, the robes Of justice dragged in
the miro, fraud, perjury and bribery
triumphant, and the fair fame of our
proud young state forever furnished. TO
denounce these crimes against the bal
lot, the usurpation of power, the per-
version of justice, which threaten, if un-
rebuked and UNPUBLISHED, to forever de-
stroy popular government among us, is
the very first duty to which to-day's
convention must address itself. There
should be no mistaken conformation of
the crimes committed by the republican
leaders in this state. Let the brand of
infamy be put upon the criminals nc
matter to what places Of power they
may have climbed upon stolen ladders
or what offices they may unworthlly fill
In the interest of popular government
among mankind, in vindication OF
the right of majorities to rule
in defence of the sacred right Of every
man to have his ballot counted as cast,
let the men who have brought upon
Montana this deep and lasting disgrace
be held up to the execration Of man.
kind.
AS the nomination that is to be made
by the convention is for representa-
tive in congress-, national issues will
properly be discussed in the platform.
The jobbery and extravaganza of the
administration, it's failure to meet the
pledges made by the republican party
the defeat of free coinage, the tariff
legislation for the few at the expense of
the many, the attempt to place federal
minions in control of the elections il
the states-all these things will, o
course, receive unsparing condemnation
from the hands of men who represent
the truest interests of the people; bu,

The Body Of the Dead Inventor Reaches
His Birthplace.

The Body Of the Dead Inventor Reaches
His Birthplace.
STOCKHOLM, Sept. 1.-THE body of Capt.
John Ericsson was landed from the United
States warship Baltimore this afternoon.
The transfer was made with much cere-
mony. The reception committee, which in
cluded three officers of the navy and four
nephews of the dead man met on board the
Baltimore at 1:3O p. m. Speeches were
made by Capt. Schley, of the Baltimore, in
delivering the body to the American min
lister; by the latter in consigning it to Ad-
miral Peyron, and by the admiral in ac-
cepting charge of the body. The body was
then transferred to steam barge, draped
in black and silver. commanded by cap
tain of the Swedish navy. When
the funeral barge arrived at
the landing stage the governor of
Stockholm formally received the body,
which was then borne by American sailors
to a large pavilion, handsomely decorated
in black and gold, which had been erected
near the waters edge in the park. While
the body was being carried to the pavilion,
bells we're tolled. An immense crowd as
sembled, and when the coffin was placed
upon the bier dozens of wreaths and other
floral emblems were heaped up around it.
The services were very simple, consisting of
singing of Swedish hymns and the recital Of
poem. When the services were concluded
the body was deposited in kearse, and the
funeral possession was formed. In it were
representatives of the king, the crown
prince and the government officials, the
American ministers to Sweden and
Denmark, officers of the war
ship Baltimore and the municipal
authorities of Stockholm. In the line was
the carriage of the king of Sweden. It is
estimated that 100000 persons viewed the
procession. On arriving at the station
where special train was waiting to convey
the body to Wermland, the birthplace Of
Ericsson, the body was placed in hand
some funeral car heavily draped in black.
Shortly after three o'clock the train moved
slowly out of the station.
The municipal authorities will give q
banquet to the officers of the Baltimore to
morrow, and Tuesday gala performance
will be given at the opera house in their
honor. Wednesday they will dine with
the king at Drottningholm.
