A recent is- ano of your paper contained a communi cation on the subject of "Divorce , " dated at Malvorn , Iowa. The article waa prompted , evidently , by a case , Borne 'acts of which had then recently como to Ight In this community. Later dovol- menta indicate clearly that the writer did not overstate the criminal phaaoa of this affair , and that the criticisms were none too uovore. A few years ape R. M. Bridges went from this place to York , Nob. , and took charge of the public schools of that town , leaving his family , consisting of a wife and two socs , hero. This arrangement was understood to bo temporary and by mutual agreement. Bridges has con- tinned to visit his family as opportunity affered. usually spending his vacation at iiomo. Soon after his return to York In April last at the close of his spring va cation this community wna shocked by the report that ho had instituted suit for divorce , alleging In his petition that his wife had deserted him without cause , while ho had been faithful to all his mari tal vows. Mra. Bridges being well known hero as an estimable Christian woman without a shadow of reproach upon her character , and known to be innocent of to crlmo of which she was accused , o people were justly Indignant nt the Koceeding and denounced It In strongest iorms. Indeed so strong was the fooling hat a public meeting of citizens was ; alkcd of , to protest against the inlqnl- Jens allegation and fix the guilt where it jroperly belonged. The ladles of the re-men's chiistlan temperance union did moot and passed some resolutions expressive of their sympathy with Mrs. 3. , and their confidence In her inno cence. Those resolutions were by order of the society handed to the local paper with request that they be published. 3at for eomo reason the reqaeat w&3 not complied with. The article In the BEE referred to above was also offered to the mblio , wo are informed , through the lame medium , but like the resolutions remain "crowded out. " But the sentiment of the community was too strong and unanimous to bo sup- iressed. Their lightoous indignation nnst. have an outlet. A statement of the caeo vindicating the character of Mrs. B. and signed by over City of onr loading citizens was presented to the Halvern paper and Its publication reepactfally re quested , and the statement was published. And this brings us to the point for which this article Is written chiefly. At York , Nebraska , the name of an inno cent woman stands branded in the courts and before the public as guilty. The citizens of Malvorn know that she Is in nocent and boar testimony to the fact. But at York , where It is mott desirable that this testimony should hare weight , a report has ccon put in circulation that the parties whoso names are attached to the statement referred to are of "disrep utable character. " This Is just what might bo oxpacted from a party who has so little regard for truth or virtue , and who can revel over the writhlngs of wounded and crashed in nocence. Yet for the Information of any who may bo blindly accepting such false hood for f ct , wo doairo to say that the names appended to that declaration are men and women than whom none stand higher In this or any other community. And these names are not a tltho of the number , equally respectable and rospon slblo , that could have been added. In the list we have ate the names of the pastors of all the churches of the town ; the presidents and cashiers of tbo banks ; many of our leading merchants and pro fessional men , with several substantial farmers and stockmen. As to the ladies whoso names appear there ore none more honorable anywhere. Many of tbeso men and woman are loading members of the various churches , ropresentlnc four denomlna tlona Uaptlot , Chrletlan , Methodist and Presbyterian , Others are of high moral standing outside the churches. We , therefore , nail the Ho whore it belongs. As a teacher Prof. Bridges has been quite successful , and It is not surprising that ho should tind endorsement as an educator , particularly so when wo con slder how many there are whose Idois relative to the marriage relation are on this came low plauo. But the man who deliberately abandons a faithful wife , and then deliberately swears that she is the guilty party , is not , it scemj to ua , tbo man demanded by this age cf Christian civilization to fill the Impomnt position of instructor and example of onr youth The question may ariio : If in nccent , why did not Mrs Bridges defend herself in the courts A paragraph on the statement rlread ; published answers this question , In patt and points to n system of terrorism tha might vie with a thirteenth century inquisition , And the "circumstances for which she cannot bo hold morally ro sponslblo" and which would completely exonerate her can bo made public when ever demanded. For fnrthox Informa tlon upon this point , In the meantime the qnerlcst Is referred to the articloln the BEE of Juno 1st. Vex PornLi , WOBKINGMEN'S MEETING. Not n Vindication for Vnupbnn , Yesterday afternoon a very latgo and orderly mooting was hold in Bayllss park by the worklngmon and citizens gener ally for the purpose of discussing the financial condition of the city. The Bluff City cornet band furnished the music for the occasion. John Ahlca occupied the choir. Speeches were made by John Short , John Ahtes , P. W. Ponlson , John Kll- ; ere and W. Allison. Ono thing Is cor bin , the speakers wore not afraid to soy just what they meant , and though the langungo nny not have boon so polished is that of some profoeslonr1 polltl.1 orators tors , it was certainly not ambiguous. It is unnecossaito report thu speeches , as the resolutions passed before the close of : ho mooting express the sentiments , torso y nnd forcibly. Unllko the resolutions passed by the meetings In Mosonlo hall , these resolu : lens do not express unlimited confidence In the present common council , and do not pat It on the shoulder and say , vlr- luilly , "Go ahead and do the best you can , and If your action moot ? with our approval , wo will back you in it. " But hey contain definite instructions. They are as follows : Whereas , The citizens of Council Blnffj , in mass moating assembled , this 27th day of Juno , 1885 , find the city on .ho brink of bankruptcy. Lawlessness and disorder are rampint , health and iroperty threatened , labor defied , popu- ation decreased , and the credit of the city md the valun of our property diminished ; horoforo , ba it Resolved , 1 , that the present city government has not onr full confi dence , therefore wo demand the roslgna- ; lon of Mayor "W. K. Vanghan from the mayoralty of the city. Should ho fail to vendor hla resignation wo demand his mpenchment , for negligence of duty and nability of character. Resolved , 2 , that wo demand a ine of not lens than $25 and not more than $50 per month , payable In advance , : rom the saloons , to assist the city In its present financial embarrassment ; and if the fine is not Imposed and collected , wo demand that they bo closed. Resolved , 3 , th&t wo demand a strict enforcement of the police and sanl- : cry regulations , particularly the Sunday e.w. Resolved 4 , That TTO demand for the present , a reduction of the salary of onr : lty officers , and if this cannot bo on- 'orced otherwise wo demand the tem porary suspension of our charter. Resolved 5 , That wo demand the full service of onr officers when paid for , by : ho month or by the year , and are op posed to making any allowances for deputizing others to do their work at the expense of the city. And are opposed o the holding of moro than ono office at a tina by such officers. [ Resolvod.C , That wo ore In sympathy trlth the poor workmen of the Wabash road who were so unjustly arrested. A.
