The Worthington advance. [volume] (Worthington, Minn.) 1874-1908, 1883-10-11


dian.
The Minnesota Methodists have an
other Atwater case on their hands only
good deal worse. The Rev. Il. G.
Amber is charged by one Keith with
not only making improper proposals to
Kcith's wife but attempting rape. The
VI. +. Conference has appointed com
,nit,te Of six ministers to investigate
iie c:lSe.
We have 40 more cnnlidencr III
preachers tl41l in other me,l, since
about every paper we pick up has some
account of Il clergyman being in a
woman scr,re. But it looks to us rs
though II large proportion OF these
many charges of insult to women and
of attempted rape were for spite or
blackmailing purposes. It has come to
just this pass that all woman has
| to do to ruin u IMAM Or to have him
| lynched is to trump up a charge Of at
tempted rape. The only wonder to us
is that in the present state OF insane
feeliug and passion about these mat
ters, there are not more hussies en-
gagged in the business Of thus Furnishing
their enemies or levying blackmail.
Of course where there is a genuine
case of outrage. like those unsp"Hkably
horrible ones in Illinois and Kentucky.
vengeance could not come too swift,
provided always you have tie right
l!E,, in hand.
In this Amber Keith case, it seems
tue woman did not discover that si.e
been insulted till some time afterwards.
1t seems to us that in 81 grave Il mat ter
a woman ought to inform her husband
1T once and take prompt steps to have
the offender punished.
