A SAD DEATH.
Miss Edith MOntague's Sudden
Demise at WinOna,
Minnesota.

Miss Edith Montague, daughter of
Alex Montague and niece Of State Sens-
tor MoGilivray Of Dickinson, died at
Hotel Winona, Winons, Mlnn July 10,
under somewhat peculiar circumstances.
Dispatches state she had been at the
hotel for q week or more sick with light
malarial fever. Friday she became
little better and was sitting up in bed.
About II o'clock she became very pale
and put her hands to her head suffering
great agony. In few minutes she fell
back, her face became frey red, and .
little later she was dead. Her surgeon
and also the city coroner we're called and
both pronounced it case Of probable
rupture Of . blood vessel IN the head.
The sudden death Of this handsome
young woman, who was but q years Of
age, recalls the notorious asylum investi-
cation OF last winter and the sensational
charges made against Dr.. Archibald and
his regime. The St. Paul Globe said
Sunday: "Dr. Archibald turned on his
accusers with charges Of Q serious nature.
and during the fight dispatches were
sent from Bismarck to each of the Twin
oity papers connecting the name of Miss
Montague With these scandals. None
of these dispatches ever saw the light OF
day, because OF their ibelous nature,
and for tho further reason that Miss
Montague, although then resident OF
St. Paul. could not be located to con-
firm the truth OF tho stories, in which it
was intimsted that she would be willing
witness. The story Of the young woman's
life is cad one. since tho death OF her
mother especially. Greater part of that
time she has resided in st. Paul, ana the
constant agitation Of the hospital fight,
with the consequent dragging her name
into the case by reason Of her fathers
connection with the fight, was terrible
strain on the young woman's nervous
system.
"A few months ago she was sent to
one of the local hospitals, where she
renamed for several weeks, cared for by
friends, and as recently as four weeks
ago she was guest of one of the lead
ing hotels. At the time Of her departure
she was financially embarrassed, and it
is said left her effects at the hotel as
security for her board. 1t must have
been soon after this that she went to
Wlnona, where her death occurred"
Miss Montague attended ST. Johns
academy for q time and was known in
this city by many.

SENATOR ROACH PLEASED.
Events Prove him q Prophet.
Fusion in North
Dakota.

The Minneapolis Journals staff cor
respondent in Chicago says: United
States Senator Roach Of North Dakota
10 taking good deal OF comfort IN the
thought that the democratic national
convention 10 about to endorse the views
which hs expressed on the stump in his
state during the campaign Of 1894.
At that time be predicted that the tariff
could never again be the issue IN this
country. and that in 1896, the national
campaign would be fought on the money
issue only. A number Of his North
Dakota neiehbors thought that he was
drawing rather . long bow and 20 ex-
pressed themselves ct the time, but sub
sequent events have shown him to be .
good prophet.
Mr.. Roach regards tho Chicago con.
vention - unique on account Of what he
says il tho entire absence Of bosses and
tho presence Of very few leaders. II -
convention, be Gays, run entirely by the
delegates. The one idea in the minds OF
these men in tho rehabilitation Of silver
aud they have been devoting all Of their
thoughts 70 the matter Of platform, 90
far, leaving tho candidates to take care
OF themselves. He thinks that the sct,on
Of the convention will be ratified st st.
Louis on July q, and that the silver
candidate will carry the country at the
polls.
In North Dakota, Senator Roach
thinks that the plans now under way to
bring about fusion between the demo-
Gratis and populists will be carried to
successful issue, and that the candidate
for governor Will be elected. This, no
matter who rs the Chicago nominee.
The North Dakota silver men have no
idea yet as to who will be their candi.
date, but this can be arranged without
serious difficulty, he thinks. The silver
campaign will probobly be carried into
the legislative districts and if silver
governor is elected. silver legislature
will probably not necessarily mean the
return of Senator Hsnsbrough.
Senator Roach is looked upon as the
leading democrat on the ground from his
state, and the sentiment OF North Da-
kota delegation seems to be to follow
his suggestions. almost to the letter
But for him member of the national
committee from that state would have
been chosen several days ago.

The VOICE has two special features
this week to which we desire to call
attention. First Is the map showing
the electoral vote of each state and
an estimate of the silver and anti
silver states. 1t is splendid object
lesson. Next is the article by John
H. Beadle. containing the carica-
lures of the western farmer by recent
New York newspapers and periodi-
Gals. They show what false con-
ception the nabobs Of the eaSt-the
fellows who send such fellows as
Potter out here to speak-have OF
the ignorant q farmers Of the west.
This conception is not held by the
masses only as they are influenced
by the nabobs, who are financially
interested in establishing the single
gold standard. Every western farm
er ought to take these caricatures as
an insult, and to get even he should
deposit his ballot in November
against the single gold standard.

Disputes over the size OF crowds as
rule go for naught so far as infu-
encing the voters is concerned, but
it must be conceded that the crowd
a; the Leedy rally was very reassur-
ing to Populists. We have no means
Of knowing what others may have
expected on that occasion, but its
immensely was a surprise to the
Voice. But one or two rallies by
the Populists in former years, if any,
lave exceeded it-and those at the
close Of the campaign when this is
at the beginning. Then it must be
taken into consideration that the ag.
gregate population Of the county
has decreased from $4,000 to $4,000
(round numbers) since the former
campaigns. This liberal turnout is
an evidence that the people are
steadfast and interested in the sue
cess Of our cause.

A Correction.

Some people are reporting that
the VOICE employed a stenographt I
to take down Chester l. Longs
speech when he was here and tina,
after it was transcribed we refused
TO publish it because it made too
strong case against US.
The stenographer was employed
BY our county committee who want
ed the speech for Jerry Simpsons
benefit. The VOICE cannot afford
to print the speeches of its own men
much less those Of the opposition in
full. We have to content ourselves
with a synopsis.
The speeches which have been
printed in the VOICE are those Of
national reputation which are put in
type by syndicate plate houses and
furnished at very low rate. The
VOICE is not afraid Of Longs So
phistries. Jerry Simpson will attend
to his case on the 26th.
