TIE cHRIsTIANCY CASE.
4 Fair statement Of the Issue BetiCeen ht
Minister and His LOrety Wife.

Washington Post.]
There are two features of domestic in
felicities which Mr.. Christiancy has
thrust upon public attention that demand
special notice. The first of these remark
able phases is that the act or acts of inf
deity which Mr.. Christiancy alleges
against his wife are dated subsequently
to his expulsion of his wife from his house
and home. The second and not less pc
culiar feature of the case, is that the al
legged infidelity of his wife is sought to be
proven by means that are abhorrent to
every honorable mind. The lady Travelled
unprotected from Washington to Lima,
Peru, to join her husband, minister
plenipotentiary and al ex-senator of the
United States She went to her hus-
bands home in Lima, as has been re-
peatedly alleged without de-
by coarse and brutal treatment to
journey back to her friends alone. Then
it was announced that Mr.. Christiancy
would apply for a divorce, and the only
fair and reasonable inference from such
announcement was that his application
should be based on acts antedating her
expulsion from his home To have sup
posed that he had driven his young wife
from his home and thus cast shame and
reproach on her, and that while thus
casting her out he had no charge of inf
deity, that his acts imputed, would have
been supposing Minister and ex-senator
Christiancy vile wretch, whom it were
base fiattery to rank with common
scoundrels. But when Mr. Christiancys
case against his wife was presented to
the court and the public, and
those who had sympathized with the hus-
band in his alleged wrongs looked for
his damning allegations against her chas-
tity in order to justify his brutality
towards her, they were amazed to dis
cover that he charged her with no I'M
chaste act antedating her Punishment and
branding by him. The minister and ex-
senator came into court by his attorneys
and asked for divorce on the ground
of an alleged act which he said she COM
nitted several months after he had cast
her out and caused her name to be banded
about among those who delight in scan
dial. 1t is not our business or purpose to
champion the cause of either party in
this business. We pass no Judgment,
but we state a hard fact when we assert
that according to Mr.. Christiancy's own
showing he put his girlish wife. into
every danger which he says was fatal to
her marital virtue.

4 Tictory for the People.
Madison Democrat

The ring candidate in Minnesota for United
States Senator, was beautifully but terribly
scooped. His name is Ramsey, and he is an
ideal machine man. He was supported by the
Pioneer Press, the ring organ, which assumes
to dictate terms on all questions in Minneso-
ia. AT the caucus, however, there happened
to be goodly amount of that Minnesota
pluck that crops out frequently to smash the
ring slate. On the first ballot Mcmillan re-
ceived sixty-four votes, clear majority,
while Ramsey only received twenty-six votes.
This is real victory for the people over the
st. Paul political ring.

The Pioneer Press of st. Paul was self-de-

opinion that Ramsey would carry off the
honors after one or two ballots. Yet Senator
Mcmillan was renominated by clear majority
on the first vote in caucus. The compliment
is a great one under the circumstances, as
Ramsey was naturally a strong candidate,
and had support from influential quarters.

4 Bo6tcd Esr-P ostn,dster's Insult to Chris
tianity.

tianity.
[Sunday Pioneer Press
A certain church elder remarking upan the
result of the recent Senatorial contest, unc-
tuously proclaimed it triumph of Chris
tianity." This explains the remarkable flavor
of piety which characterized the canvass. II
was a common remark among the German
members of the Legislature that the only can
didate who set up the peer for the boys was
Mcmillan; and the beer and whisky, in fact,
hOated in rivers in all the bar-rOOms in or near
the Merchants hotel to swell the triumph OF
Christianity. Large proportion of these Ger
man members, by the way, were originally op-
posed to Mcmillan. But they were invited to a
wine supper at the Tivoli by a certain German
OfficehOlder and there, by means of peculiar per-
sonal arguments, well moiste2ed by the con-
vival cup, were won over to Mcmillan, and
Christianity then achieved one of its most
hilarious triumphs. 1t was another triumph
OF Christianity when member of the legisla-
ture opposed to Mcmillan was persuaded to
vote for him by the promise of territorial
judgeship for friend Another member, who
had always been outspoken for Ramsey, was
bought off In similar fashion by the promise
Of an office for a friend, and Christianity
again triumphed. A prominent competing
was sent for by McMillan's friends and Offered
the governorship of the State if lie would
withdraw from the contest, so as to leave some
of his friends at liberty to vote for McMil-
Ian. He contemptuously rejected the corrupt
proposition, but an arrangement was sub
sequently made with his friends, and Christian
ity triumphed once more. The members of a
certain delegation who had pledged themselves
to vote for Ramsey sent for friend, through
whose agency they completed negotiations a
few hours before the caucus of such a char
acter that they were ashamed to make the bar
gain themselves, as the result of which they
all voted for Mcmillan, and Christianity was
still triumphant, A member who professed to
represent number of Scandinavians who
would vote as he did, and held them for the
highest bidder, finally sold them to Mcmillan,
and contributed his squad of purchased votes
to swell the triumph of Christianity. Post
offices and mail-route agencies, and all the
spoils of the Philistines were lavishly offered
as bounty to all recruits who would enlist in
this army of the Lord. No one whe knows
