Methodist cIersymen Called Slaves to
Salary.

Salary.
Wilkesbarre, Pa, Jan. 23.-Methodist
ministers were scored by Bishop Earl
Cranston Of Washington in an address
before Methodist clergymen here when
he said:
When the form of support was
changed to that of salary the minister
gave up his apostolic freedom and
placed himself in the hands of laymen
who might have other motives than to
serve God The method of arranging
the salaries for the Methodist clergy.
men Of today and sending them to
charges they desire is nothing more
than a preconference contract"
The bishop compared Methodism
with the days when ministers rode"
the circuit and travelled over different
roads each year. He declared the old
circuit riders suffered all sorts of hard
ship in answering the call. Their
support" he said Though humble,
was provided by the laity. The true
calling at the time was spiritual and
not monetary"

Twentyfour years ago Bowman wac

and learned of his whereabouts. The
defendant was brought into court, and
it was shown he was a prisoner of the
United States and that the government
required him to pay a portion Of his
pension money to his wife. 1t was
then learned that he had married a sec.
ond time, although his first wife was
living and not divorced.
Counsel for the real Mrs. Bowman
made the claim that Bowman should
be held by the sentence of May II,

the case, decided that the sentence was
still in force and that Bowman should
be held
