Christian Church Decides Ia Accept
the Young Pastors Resignation.

Christian Church Decides Ia Accept
the Young Pastors Resignation.
The official board and n large part of tn"
congregation OF the Christian church met
In the tabernacle last evening for the pur-
pose OF determining whether or not they
should keep Rev +. A Cantrell the young
minister from Mount Pleasant, who was
called two weeks ago. The young man came
here under circumstances that made his
prospects bright. But for some reason that
Is not clearly understood by a large ma
jOrity of the congregation the sky darliened
very quickly, and when he returned to Mt.
Pleasant after preaching his first sermon
he carried with him an unmistakable hint
that he might expect to have his resigna-
tion called for before many weeks Instead
Of gathering up his household goods and
making his arrangements to remove peTma-
nently to Council Bluffs the young minister
sent letter to the official board notifying
ii that he would resign at once. The trouble
grew out of some portions OF his first ser
mon which some OF the older and more
conservative members OF the congregation
thought contained trace OF heresy or some
thing dangerously near IT, This matter was
discussed at length in the meeting last
evening. Mr.. Bonham. who has been the
most pronounced in his opposition to the
new minister, thought the young man was
Inclined to preach a gospel of his own rather
than that OF Christ, and as a Christian
church they could not consistently permit
this. The heresy was supposed to have been
contained in a sentence where the young
minister was dilating upon his charity and
declared that he would not refuse to extend
| the hand of fellowship to any person. This
was taken by some of the church official
board to be a defiance OF the church's au-
| thority, and might mean the bringing into
| the church of undesirable members who
could not be gotten rid of II the minister
| refused TO withdraw the hand of fellowship
| Many OF them present thought the young
minister had been misunderstood. and the
| discussion was continued until 10 o'clock.
| 4 motion was then made to refuse to CON
| slider the resignation. A secret ballot was
| taken, which resulted in thirty-sX in favor
| of refusing to accept the resignation and
| twenty-siN opposed to retaining the minis
| ter. This was not unanimous enough to
| satisfy the congregation, and after further
| discussion motion to accept the resgna-
| tlon carried. The friends OF the new min
| lister who voted for the motion admitted
| that there could be no harmony with such
| a large proportion of the congregation op-
posed to the pastor
| pulpit committee consisting of Members
| Mack Conoyer, Holloway, Barr and Bar
stow was appointed to assist the official
board in securing a pastor.

SEWER NATTER GOES OVER AGAIN.
Question OF Cutting out the First

pt OuN. Nuf
street District Unsettled
The city council met in special session last
evening to consider the petition OF the prop
erty owners on Graham and Madison ave-
nues to have their portion Of the First
street sewer district cut out from the con-
tract. City Attorney Hazleton submitted a
report on the legality Of such course by
the council. He held that 'the city had
no right TO take this portion Of the work
from the sewer district without the consent
of the property owners on South First street
or without the city assuming the difference
caused thereby In the assessment against
the property on South First street" The
city attorney then quoted the ordinance
governing the assessment OF sewer improve
ments, which provided for the apporton-
ment OF the cost OF the Improvement pro
rata per lineal foot OF the abutting property
along the whole line OF the sewer, ire
spective OF the size OF the pipe used.
THE part which II Is sought to cut out
! is the least expensive" said the city attor-
ney 1T will therefore be readily seen
/ that the amount of the assessment against
| the property abutting on South First street
! depends upon the work being done on Gra-
! ham and Madison avenues. The owners of
! property on South First street had and now
| have the legal and equitable right to rely
| on the reduction Of their assessments caused
! by the constructions of the whole sewer, and
/
! by the proposed action Of the council"
| L. c. Larsen, one Of the property owners
| on Graham avenue. addressed the council
! end threatened to consult gooi lawyer
! about the matter II he was forced to pay
| for the sewer on First avenue, from which
| he would derive no benefit. He Is one OF the
| petitioners who want the upper portion of
! the work abandoned for year or more
| until the paving is ready to be done on his
| street
g. w. Jackson of South First street an
1ounced with equal emphasis that IL the
| 1sL Of the sewer was not assessed accord

r. o. Wickham, the contractor, had agreed
