RUNGLINGLY MANAGED.
Ramsey's Campaign for the Senate as
Tietced -ibrOdd.
rC;o. Tr;@, J1,,..aJ


Vietced abroad.
[Sioux City Journal
The earnest effort to defeat the return
of Hon. S. J. r. Mcmillan to the United
States Senate, from Minnesota, reaped a
harvest of signal failure in the Republi-
can Senatorial caucus in st. Paul, on
Thursday evening The st. Paul Pioneer
Press has been very active in its opposi-
tion to him, and the result of the contest
is quite as much the defeat of the Pioneer
Press as it is of Secretary of War Ramsey,
brought out by the opponents of McMil-
Ian as an instrument for their purpose. 1t
is to be presumed, however, that Gov
Ramsey entered somewhat heartily into
the plans for his return to the Senate, for
his secretaryship is about to pass to other
hands, and Judge Mcmillan is the man
who finally succeeded against him in the
bitter and protracted struggle in 1875.
On the first ballot in the caucus Thurs
day night, Senator Mcmillan had Ga votes
McMillan's victory was an easy one, and
a crushing one to his opponents. The
friends of Gov. Ramsey, as led by the
Pioneer Press, have not been content to
fight the battle in Minnesota, but they
have sought to fight it from Washington
and from the inner circle of the new ad-
ministration, and through an influential
newspaper press of other States. The
policy was to persuade the Republicans of
Minnesota that they would make a mis-
take not to prefer Ramsey, and the work
was carried so far on this line as to in
volve confession that the Republican SEN
&c ~, LOT
favor of Mcmillan, and to offend that
sentiment, and the Republican local pride
of the State, by the implication that Min
nesota ought to go to Washington, or
somewhere else, to get Information as to
what it ought to do in a matter of that
kind. Besides this, the rancor of the
Pioneer Press gave color to the theory
that the ST. Paul postoffice and DR.. Day,
the postmaster, were objective points,
largely of personal character, with the
leading st. Paul newspaper. To say the
least, at this distance it seems that Gov.
Ramsey was poorly advised and his
cause very bunglingly managed In
the first place, it would
have been kindness to him, under the
circumstances, not to have brought him
out as candidate; and it is to be sup
posed that had he understood the situa-
tion he would have declined to be a party
to the contest againstthc sitting Senator.
There is reason to believe, however, that
Secretary Ramsey had been led to accept
the idea that all that was necessary to his
reelection to the Senate was his consent
for the use of his name. 1t will be for
the Pioneer Press to make such explana-
tions to Secretary Ramsey as the case may
demand.

A HORRIBLE DEED.

One Woman Saturates the Clothing OF
Another with Gasoline and Sets Fire to
the Same-The Victim Fatally Burned.
DETROIT, Mich, Jan. 17.-At Lapier a
woman named Barnard went to the house of
Rev. E. Curtis, Baptist pastor, attacked his
wife, an old lady about Is, threw her down,
poured gasoline over her clothing and set it on
fire. The poor woman .was so shockingly
burned that she lived but few hours. Mr..
Curtis, until last year, was pastor at Green
vile, this State, for several years. Mrs. Bar
nard came to Lapier few weeks ago from
Greenville, where she lives, being the wife of
quite prominent lumberman, and is woman
about 40 years old. She has been busy mean
time attending meetings and mingled with
general society, but giving no intimation of
any ill-will towards her victim. 1t is believed
by many that she is insane from religious ex-
citement, but others think it a case of down
right wickedness. She is under arrest.

and referred to the Judiciary committee.
Mr.. Sabin presented q petition from Selah

vide for the payment of the same.

received.

Mr. L. L. Baxter moved that it be printed
and laid on the table.

payment of the bonds as he was capable of
making.

Had it not been for the little zephyr
created by Gen. Sanborn's bill relative to
the railroad bonds, and the memorial from
Selah Chamberlain, asking payment of
the bonds held by him, the session of the

tremely dull. These gave rise to an ami
mated discussion, from which it was
evidentthat there would be considerable
opposition to the passage of any bill look
ing toward the adjudication of the debt.
