iations, WHO VIII now dare say that
there was amy wrong or unfairness
or injustice pcrpetrsted by such an
act when the discipline in PLAIN
words says our Supreme Court can
do so And now to show Mr.
Domer that he is wrong in going to
Philadclpnia instead of indianapolis
where the Board of Publication
designated the General Conferences
should meet, we give the rulings of
the conrts in the different States.
In Illinois the Supreme Court
has decided against you, ard your
minority preachers are out of the
churches there, besides you have In
that State taken the name of the
Heynfar, so says your man Stanford
whose article IN the Erangelical is
now before me of April &c, 1898.
The courts of Ohio have decided
against you the courts of Iowa,
the courts of Nebraska, the courts
OF Oregon and in several Gases IN
pennsylvania, while you got a vic
tory in reading before Judge End
fish in favor of your Annual Con-
ference ne decides that your Phila-
delphia gathering was no General
Conference, and that you had only
IA legal delegates there. Your
'learncd Judge" us You say, de-
clarcs there was no General Confer
ence, and If no be correct, how
come Stanford, Hannah and Dubs
to be bishops, or did that "lcarned
Judge" elect them ? il so, then il
is no wonder you are selling his
decision at so cents to bear che
expense Of the election.
Will recapitulate some points In
this and show what your side have
went back on. First. you went
back on the following vow that you
made: You vowed to the church,
you will maintain and promote, MS
much as lies in you, peace, quiet,
ness, love and unity among all
christians, and especially among
those committed to your Charge.
Second, the Bishop asked you !:
viii you with reverence obey your
supcrors in Office of the church
unto whom you may be submitted
according to the regulations of this
association :? Will you follow with
glad heart and willing mind, etc.
fon answercd, Il will do so, the
Lord being my helper"
These vows YOU have went back
on, thus causing loss of principle.
Again your faction went back on
the resolutions of the General Con
ference relative to the Board OF
Publication fixing the place of
meeting. thus making the minority
lacking in confidence.
Tim your faction refused to sign
the General Conference proceed
ings. making themselves guilty Of
treason in the church.
Again. your own faction in the
Board Of Publication agreed by
resolution 20 hunt mp a place till
the next meeting, and Of course,
help fix the place for General Con-
ference to meet and your minority
went back on this resolution.
Thus confirming your opposition
movement.
Again, you went back on your

to your own propositions.

fraud and all manner of deception
has been the weapons of warfare
with the minority.
And now Mr.. Domer comes out
as man of love (:) and says Of our
loyal preachers (which but a year
or two ago were with him), that
they are local and defunct, and
