APRoaINEST MINISTER EXPELLED
suit by His VITO for Divorce-GraVe
Charges of Evil Doings.

CHARL VA. July IS
snecial-On the second rule day IN July
a bill for divorce was filed In the corpo-
ration court by Mrs. Mamie T. Waldrop,
formerly Mamie 7. Christmas, daughter
OF Captain John ". Christmas, OF this
city against her husband, the Rev. +. l..
Waldrop, a preacher Of the Disciples
church, and an evangelist Of some noto-
riety I'm Virginia and Pennsylvania. IN
this bill grave charges Of evil doings ana
gross immoral conduct are preferred by
his wife. but not until Sunday did the
community at large become fully ac-
quainted with the extent and character
Of the alleged immoral conduct OF the
evangelist, when he was publicly eN-
PEELED from fellowship by the church or
this place, OF which the Rev. Mr.. Is. a.
Abbott Is pastor an account OF which Is
as follows:
At the Disciples church Sunday morn
ing an a call meeting just after preaching
the pastor read q decision reached Dy the
official board Of the church relating 70
Il. L. Waldrop. a member OF their CON
gregation and preacher in the denomina-
ton. This decision was recommenda-
ton TO Withdraw fellowship from F. l..
Waldrop. The charges that have been
preferred against him were non-support
terry, and the violation Of certain ooliga-
tions 10 the church, which were proved IN
a former church trial.
The pastor made the following state
ment: That there was no room for
reasonable doubt in these charges; that
the Testimony on the charges Of lying
and deception was as strong and direct
as could be, and that the deception was
Of very grave nature; while not abso-
lutely proven, the evidence was as strong
as circumstantial evidence could be. In
r'aking up this decision there was no
difference OF opinion in the board, and
not dissenting vote as 10 what decision
should be reached IL appears mat Mr..
Waldrop has been going wrong for some
time his church having tried and found
him guilty OF grave misconduct last year,
but continuing him as "A preacher on his
avowal OF repentance and his pledge 10
lead a new and better life thereafter.
i nese promises he did not keep, but
violated them in less than a month. and
has been guilty OF many questit nable
things since. The church voted without
a dissenting voice 10 sustain the decision
OF the official board.

and once more renew the friendships that
were formed in their fight for their
homes and their rights. Many remi-

no little TO the pleasure Of the gathering.
A splendid lunch was served at noon.

an excellent dinner. The survivors were
photographed during the day.

through our ports. II. says the Dispatch,
It may constitutionaiiy impose taxes on
all these subjects. why may IT not I'M
nose n tax on the notes issued by State
banks? The answer is very plain. Con-
gress imposes taxes on all these articles
10 raise n revenue. The general Govern
ment requires an immense annual reve-
nue., and Il has the undoubted right to
tax all forms Of property in the United
States to raise that revenue.
But the tax imposed upon the issues OF
State banks is not imposed 10 raise reve-
nue.. 1t is imposed TO prohibit the Issue
OF State bank notes. IL is tax OF ten
per cent. on the face value Of the issue,
which, OF course. no bank could pay
IT is. therefore, not use Of the taxing
powers. but an abuse Of IT. 1t comedies
that Congress has no power under the
Constitution 20 prohibit n State bank 10
issue its notes. but II claims that Con-
gress may accomplish that end. which II
has no power to accomplish by direct
methods, through the false pretense OF
doing something else that IL has a right
10 do. 1t IS a swindle. a sham and
shame. II the Congress OF the United
States thinks that the Government needs
n revenue out Of the issues Of State
banks. and imposes n tax upon them
which the State banks could pay and
still issue their notes. no one would have
n word Of objection to make to the tax.
But It is the fraudulent character OF this
act which contains the constitutional OBJ
lection to It. 1t is an act which &C
by indirect methods what
Congress is denied the power 10 accom-
plish by direct methods. It is Jesuitical, |
faise-an embodiment Of lies.
