REV. WD. COOK WAS FORCED OUT
OF HIS CHURCH BY PREACHERS
WHO HAVE ON MANY OCCASIONS
DTSGRACED THE NAME OF THE
EVERYTHING GOD.

who starts out to discuss the weak
nesses Of the Church, is handicapped
either because of the cowardice or the
ignorance Of the very class suffering
most Ninety-nine per cent of the
members, and more than seventy
per cent Of the ministers do not know
that since the last General Conference,
Rev. w, D. Cook, one Of the strong
est men from every angle the Church
has ever produced, with more than
l,50O members, was forced out Of the
Church, because OF the shameful
treatment Of the presiding bishop.
There was nothing in our papers
about it, just as there will be nothing
about the recent loss of Rev. ]. r.
Harvey, another great preacher with
500 followers. we shall discuss this
unfortunate case in a future editorial,
along with some unpublished inside
information, as TO why certain bishops
made such determined efforts to de-
pose the editor Of this paper.
You cannot read in our papers that
another big church has been estab-
lished in Detroit, Michigan, out Of ag-
grieved African Methodists. You have
read nothing about the more than 300
desertions from Mother Bethel in
New York. You know nothing about
our loss of a whole church in Los An
geles, nor the losses in Baltimore and
other places. You don't know because
of the studied effort to keep these facts
away from those who have right to
know what is going on in the Church.
The Discipline provides for Year
Book to Be issued by the Bishops
Council. but we have made no effort
at tabulating our membership for sew
eral years, because Of what it will
show. Our contention is that we have
tried this cover-up game, but without
results; now for something else. If
the devilment which we expose hurts
the Church, then cut out the devil
ment and there will be nothing to ex-
pose. No threats can terrorize Us, We
are responsible only TO the God who
made Us, and in His hands do we rest
our case.-From the late issue Of The
Young AIlenite, Nashville, Tenn. Ira

Julius F. Taylor Has Never At
tempted in Any Manner, Shape
or Form to Blackmail or Sand
Bag Rev. A. j. Carey Out of
One Thin Dime.

Some Of the many friends Of Rev.
A. J. Carey have informed us lately
that we are simply sore at Rev. Carey
for the sole reason that we have never
been able to blackmail or sandbag him
out Of some easy money The friends
Of Rev. Carey who make or who give
expression to such rash statements
have utterly failed to think twice be-
fore they speak once and we might
as well face the cold truth or facts
right now.
In another column of this newspa-
per appears the cut and an article in
favor Of the election Of Rev. Carey as
one of the delegates to the Constitu-
tional Convention Of Illinois the cleo
ton being held on Tuesday, Novem-
Der 4, 1919.
The truth Of the whole matter is
that on Thursday, October 80, 1919
while the writer was in the room oc-
cupied BY Rev. Carey in the Office oi
the Corporation Counsel Of Chicago,
Rev. Carey penned the article him.
self which appears under his cut and
to show that we did not entertain any
hard feelings against him we permit
ted his article to come through as
though the article had been written by
ourself.
Shortly after that issue Of the paper
was off the press, Rev. Carey warmly
thanked US for publishing it and al
the same time he ordered fifty copies
of the paper which he wanted to send
to some Of the presiding elders around
over the country at that same time
Rev. Carey stated that he would with
in very short time send us a check
to pay for the fifty copies Of the paper
and little something on the side tc
partly pay US for our trouble.
| -Four years and fraction have
rolled on into eternity since Rev
Carey gave US his word Of honor thai
The broad ax. [volume] (Salt Lake City, Utah) 1895-19??, 1923-11-17

he would send us something which we
could cash in and pull out of some
bank enough money to enable US to
ride on the street cars at least four or
FIVE times.
Several times since that time we
have very politely informed Rev.
Carey that so far he had failed to
cause us to smile on him and up to
the present time we have not received
one thin dime from him OF the money
which he has on several occasions
promised to send to us.
In all truthfulness it can be stated
by us that we experience not the least
bit of pleasure in publishing the
above facts but when the friends and
supporters of Rev. Carey boldly ac-
cuse US of ever attempting to black
mail or sandbag him out Of one thin
dime it is high time to call halt.
In conclusion. Rev. Carey and his
friends can have all Of the free space
that they desire in these columns to
refute or deny the truthfulness of the
above statements If they can and il
they can prove them to be absolutely
false in every way then we will be
willing to retract every statement
herein set forth and fall down on our
hands and knees and beg him to for
give US for publishing the untruth
about him.
With the kindest Of brotherly feel
ing towards Rev. Carey, we hope that
in the future that his friends and fol-
lowers viii refrain from accusing US
of attempting at any time to black
mail or sandbag him out of one penny
for we are not and never have been
engaged in that line Of business.
There is only one thing that we
wish Rev. Carey and that is that his
Lord and Master will continue to
shower down his bountiful blessings
upon him

We do not care rap whether the
reader i pleased or d;spleased with
the airing we are giving the unfortu
nate conditions that obtain in our
Church III the City Of Chicago. We
have listened enough to this old sooth-
ing-syrup rot about the glories Of the
Church and the injury done in expos
ing the rotten lives Of some Of its
leaders. It's about six months before
the setting Of the General Conference
Al Louisville. We are not concerned
in this article as to the right or wrong
OF any individual or set Of individuals.
We are interested in the cold, stub
born facts before us-namely, that
members are leaving our Church, not
only as individuals, but in droves. A
spineless set Of editors, not only

rights Of the Church have been
trampled upon BY its selfish leaders,

people, it may have been in the
