not exactly In harmony with the admin

Decision Against HOmesteadcrs.
The administration, by the way. has been
dealing severe blows to the Michigan democ-
racy. The decision Of Secretary Smith on
the upper peninsular homesteaders, oUsting
them from their possessions of land claimed
by corporations under land grants, will cost
the democrats hundreds Of votes. Mr..
ohlth may be right in his decision, and as
N atter OF fact the homesteaders are de-
serving OF little sympathy, as most OF them
are acquiring title to timber land that they
sy sen 10 lumbermen, being paid for the
servlce, but the decision can be used with
oeaoly erect by the republicans and will
Undoubtedly be so used
IN aoaltlon to this the two speeches
Mhich controller Eckels delivered-one at
the state bankers Convention AT sagIna rS
ana tne other at the bankers banquet I'm
tnis city-Nere not calculated TO Strengthen
sne commence Of the Michigan free silver
democrats In the financial policy of the
powers that be. Mr.. Eckels fayors the ooi6
standard. and in Michigan as elsewbere
he has not hesitated to say so. At the sar-
NAV convention he was followed by CAN
didate Fisher. who Is advanced almost to
the populist point In his silver views. ana
the two speeches did not at all harmonize.
MI. Eckels. In a manner. represented the
administration In his utterances. while Mr.
risner expressed the views of the Michigan
democrats on the financial question. From
the politicians point of view Mr. Eckels'
speeches In Michigan were ill-advised ana
harmful but the republicans VIII not take
him UP. because the financial question IL
one of the issues which they will dwell upou
very lightly In this campaign.

THE GLAssCOCK DIVORCE,

Col. Christy Explains the Position of
senator Stewart in Regard to the
Case.
Speaking Of Senator Stewards connec-
ton with the Glasscock divorce case Col.
Robert Christy. counsel for Senator Stew
art. said to Star reporter today that the
Senator is not a party in the suit. But"
explained Col Christy, ut came to his
knowledge through the threatening letters
Of both Glasscock and his wife that a d.
vorce suit had been commenced, wherein
he was charged with improper relations
with the defendant, Mrs. Glasscock. Know
ing that the charge was false, so far as
he was concerned, he investigated the mat
ter and found that 1t was a collusive suit
and not brought for the purposes OF justice.
He then availed himself OF practice conso-
nant with that which prevails in the courts
OF England and In few of our state
courts. and had presented to the justice
holding the equity term Of our District
Supreme Court sworn affidavits and origi-
nal papers showing the real character of
the suit and the true relation between the
parties, and their joint pursuit of himself
The best authorities say that the court in
divorce cases represents the public also and
is bound to prevent fraudulent and collusive
divorces, and 1t is the privilege and duty of
any party In the possession Of facts show
ing that the process Of the court is being
used for the improper purposes to inform
the Judge to enable him to act advisedly
This is all that has been done or is intend
ed to be done by the Senator and myself
In this case"
Col. Christy said that a correspondent
was not known to the courts Of this coun-
try, nor was he a necessary party to a
suit in England until the act of % and q
Victoria, though by special statutes in
some of the states the law officer of the
state may Of right intervene In such cases.
