of all good people. Dowie himself IS
an object Of pity more than scorn. There
is no figure in history he resembles SO
closely as does the character Of Balaanl.
Balaam was once Gods prophet; he
knew the truth He wished to speak It,,
but the glitter of Balak's gold and the
hattery OF his tongue proved his ruin
It is about six years ago that The
Rams Horn spoke it's first and last word
concerning DR.. Dowie. Flo was then 1T
the height OF his power. Many thought
1t was tenerity to touch him. He was
abusive OF his enemies and had been
known to employ extraordinary means to
injure them. We had come into posses
sion OF testimony concerning him which
1t was due his own people to know. We
were IN constant receipt of requests from
our own readers for information concern
Ing him. We at last, with Considerable risk
to ourselves, gave publicity to the evil
dcncc. We forbode to speak of his pr-
vate character. We spoke only OF that
which we knew We gave an entire Is
sue Of the RAMS Horn to an exposure
of the "Dowic Dcluslon." It's effects
upon his career was immediate. Ills nd
herents at a distance, who read the facts
wo published withdrew their support. His
income from that source decreased hun
dreds OF dollars n week. We saved moro
than ono ill-advised woman and foolish
man from the folly OF giving to Dowie
their earthly estate and their souls direc-
ton. Those who were close to him be-
licvcd his deninls OF our charges and per-
hnps shared In his abuse Of Tho Ram
Horn. They know better now. Nothing
that We ever said equals In denuncgton
this singing message that was sent by
cable and signed by his own oyerseers.
