A Tragedy in Montville.

Special to the Wing and Courier.
BELFAST, Jan 16. News of very sad af-
fair has just come in from Montville. The
reports conflict in some poi nts, but the
main facts are as follows: Mr.. Ed. Rowell,
farmer. who lives near Hogback mountain
in Montville, became suddenly insane early
last Tuesday morning and violently assault
ed his wife with hatiron His daughter, a
young lady, came to her mothers assistance
and was struck 80 as to be seriously but not
fatally injured. Mrs. Rowell made desper-
ate resistance. but was being overpowered
when the noise brought down their twelve
year-old boy, who had only partially dressed
himself. The boy seeing his mother In such
peril took a stick of stove wood and dealt
his father such blow as brought him suf-
fclenty to his senses to enable him to
realize what he had been doing. Mr.. Rowell
implored his family to send for assistance,
as he feared he might become violent again.
He was finally prevailed upon to lie down
and the boy started out to alarm the neigh
bors and bring doctor from Freedom,
which is distant nearly five miles The lad
was but partly dressed and his face became
badly frozen.
The neighbors came but at first did not
dare to enter the building, as Mr.. Rowell
is very large and powerful man, and a
brother of his several years ago became
Mr.. Mcfarland and wife, and was himself
shot and killed by Joseph Raines while de-
Tending the other members, of the family.
This occurred not far from where Ed. Rowell
and his family live.
At last, however, some were found who
were bold enough to enter the buildings,
and after little search found Mr.. Rowell
in the barn. He was secured without much
difficulty and the wounded wife and daugh-
ter, who had locked themselves in a room
upstairs, were cared for as we'll as possible
The doctor soon arrived and at first thought
Mrs. kowell could not live, but later she
was said to be in a fair way to recover.
The reports of this affair differ most as to
amount Of injury received by Mrs. Rowell
and her daughter. Some say their injuries
have been exaggerated.
Mr.. Rowell has been taken to the hospital
at Augusta for treatment He has been en-
gagged in the lumber business and it is said
that he has lost much of his property and
that it preyed upon his mind. The Rowells
are well known and respected people and
much sympathy is felt for the suffering

There is no better authority on Ameri
the University of Pennsylvania That
will of course be conceded by all who are
familiar with his writings. What he says.
in the DECEMBER Forum, on annexation
and universal suffrage has therefore a
special value and will be read with much
interest at this time. We give on the It'll
page summary of his paper taken from
The Literary Digest. We make here a
single quotation from the closing para
graph of Prof. McMaster's article:
A review of the history of suffrage in
the Territories thus makes it clear that
foreign soil acquired by Congress is the
property of and not part of the United
States; that the Territories formed from
it are without, and not under, the Consti-
tuition; and that in providing them with
governments Congress is at liberty to es-
tablsh just such kind as it pleases, with
| little or no regard for the principles of
| self government; that in the past it has
set up whatever sort was, in its opinion,
| best suited to meet the needs of the peo-
pie, never stopping to ask how far the
| government so created derived its just
powers from the consent of the governed
and that it is under no obligation to grant
even a restricted suffrage to the inhabi-
tants of any new soil we may acquire, I'M
less they are fit to use it properly. Con-
gress is indeed morally bound to give the
very best government that circumstances
will permit; but it is also morally bound
not to be carried away by theories of
human rights which even the States them
selves ignore.

Senator Foraker's speech in the Senate
Jan. 18th will attract the world S profound
attention for the possibly inspired utter
ance it contains respecting the attitude of

This seems to be, according to the
Senator, for the United States to hold the
islands "until the people are ready for
self government Then the speaker
added: II don't understand that any one
desires anything but the ultimate in
dependence of the people of the Philip
pines, neither the President nor anyone
else" One effect of this declaration is
likely to be the modification in some
degree of the opposition in the Senate to
the American Spanish treaty.
