A FINAL CASTIGATION.

Inso far as DR.. Hatcher is devout
sincere minister Of the Gospel, Ire
spect him, but wherein he turns fame
hunter. pay him the following COM
pliment:
When he tries to use John uasper's
fame as. a stepping stone to his own,
he presents the picture of pigmy
trying on the boots of colossus. AS
claimant to scholarly distinction,
he is a stupendous impossibility ana
brisTing failure; as theologlan'
he is a persistent and a vague excuse;
as a member of an intelligent com.
munity he is chronic affection and
an inconvenience: as a polemicist he
is the poor imitation of wriggling
sophist, and as a fame-hunter he Is
Just an ordinary bother.
Dr. Hatcher's defense has nat
tire" May DR. Hatcher behave
himself" before Richmond in sheer
self-defense demands it.

POPULAR, BUT NOT PERTINENT

POPULAR, BUT NOT PERTINENT.
DR. Hatcher tries to decoy us from
the issue by injecting a deliverance
on the Virgin Birth in which he gets
a chance to say things that are
popular" but not pertinent to our
discussion | simply refuse to move
the simple matter of whether this
man boasting of learning and degrees
and that really believes his doctrine
of "a four-cornered earth and NOV
ing sun
In his advocacy of this doctrine
we doubt his sincerity but feel he is
rather DESTROYS of attracting atten-
tion to himself: for casual exam
ination. of his deliverances indicates
that he takes himself seriously for,
he speaks much about Large crowds"
and congratulations" and collect
ions" and "auditoriums" and white
ministers on the platform" with him
etc. Because of these unfailing re.
ferences to the great things he is
doing We suspect that what ails him
is either pernicious Intellectual anem-
ia or he has popularity complex.
Whatever the ailment is, it seems
deepseated and complicated and we
feel that surgery ard not sAlve must
be the ultimate remedy and we are
speaking plainly lest this minister
contributes to his own undoing as
we'll as to his community's chagrin.
If possible this man should be saved
for the cause of intelligence.
REASONS FOR THE CRITICISM.
DR.. Hatcher wakes vehement and
asks, why this how'll? We shall
proceed forthwith to apprise him as
to the whyness of this "howa". First,
because perfectly possible minister
OF our common community has be-
come an impossible fame-hunter.
Second, because it is humiliating to
Richmond in particular and the Negro
race in general to have a Negro
Boosting of learning and college de-
grees and ministering to great con-
gregation in great city openly and
with calculation aforethought advo-
eating the sensational doctrine of "a
four-cornered earth and moving
sun" Third, because this avowed
Fundamentals shows himself in his
writings to be so utterly short on
fundamentals and yet he claims ever
to believe in the whole Bible. If
he so believes in the whole Bible and
its literal Interpretation by what
stroke of language or logic does he
Justify himself with baptism short
of immersion? This question is de-
signed for DR.. Hatcher only. 800.
Fourth, because openly he is trying
to exploit the fame of the immortal
Jasper before the eyes OF those who
hold Jasper's name as a sacred mem
DRY. DR.. Hatcher tells how he has
been congratulated" but this is how
one of John Jasper's members esti-
mates DR. Hatcher's efforts" In
passing down Broad Street Saturday
morning, I CHANGED to meet a very
dear old lady who reveres the name

A QUESTION OF CROWDS.

Or Hatcher seems to justify his
doctrines by telling of. Large crowds
seven hundred etc" who heard
the sermon, He seems to forget how
ever that his crowd would be large
if he were doing sleight-of hand
stunts or walking a slack rope or
doing the human fly stuff. Or, II
he preached a. sermon from the sub
ject. "First One Thing and Then
Another, in which he discussed
"tweedle-dee7 on the one hand and
''tweedle-dum" on the other, his
crowds would not only be large but
he would have congratulations
and an occasional convert.
His second justification seems to
be white minister will be on the
platform" with him. To this we re-
ply that it takes more than the mere
presence of a white man on the plat
form to convince intelligent Rich
mond of the truth of the doctrine OF
"a four-cornered earth and a moving
sun" and this fact alone does not
save our colored community from
humiliation at the hands Of the man
who should be seeking to bolster our
pride. :.
Richmond is not as sleepy as it
seems and personally / expect no riot

day P. NJ, for some may have my
seat. If a crowd should turn out
and 7 have no quarrel with tEem II
they do hope they are looking for
a revival rather than "jollification
meeting" People like to be joilied'
If anyone is converted on the doc
trina of "a four-cornered eartn and a
moving sun" they deserve salvation
for theirs is a great faith-greater
than was ever found in Israel.

a specific agreement that the senator would not be called upon to appear in any federal matter. This testimony was corroborated by several witness es, but documentary evidence was pro- duced by the department of justice in tended to show that Wheeler had prom ised Campbell to take up some oil lease matters before Edwin s. Booth, then solicitor of the department of the interior.
 After Harlan F. Stone succeeded Daugherty as attorney General, the in- vestigation of Wheeler's case was re- opened before another grand jury in Washington, which on March 27 last returned an indictment against the Senator from Montana and Campbell and Booth for conspiracy to defraud the government out of certain oil lands in Montana. Mr. Stone took the re- sponsibility for the activities of this Investigating body.
 Federal Judge Charles N Pray, of Montana, who received the report of the Great Falls grand jury, disquali fled himself in the trial of the case and Federal Judge Frank s. Dietrich of Idaho was called to preside.
Seward daily gateway., 1925-04-22

The case was delayed, however, un- til last month, when it was set for the 17th of April.
 Senator Wheeler is specifically charged with violation of section 113 of the penal code, which makes it a crime for a member of congress to ac- cept fees in appearing before any gov ernment department in prosecution of claim for another person. The in- dictment accuses him of having ac- cepted S4,O0O from Campbell between January 8, 1923, and February 16, of the same year. It was charged that the money was paid to the law firm of Wheeler and Baldwin of Butte.
 In the senate, on the day following the returning of the indictment, Sena- tor Wheeler's colleagues ordered an official investigation of the case and a senatorial committee was appoint ed to take testimony. This was af- ter the Montana senator had made an impassioned speech in the upper house branding the indictment as "palpably a frameup," and declaring that it was the fruits of a plot between the then attorney general, Harry M. Daugherty, and the Republican national commit tee. Senator Wheeler charged that Daugherty and the Republican organi- zation had caused the indictment to be brought to harrass him for his ac- tivities as the prosecutor of the sen- ate Daugherty Investigating commit tee.
 In the senate investigation of the in dictment the Montana member was wholly exonerated." The commit tee which investigated the case made a report in which only one of it's five members dissented. The minority report was made by Senator Sterling Republican, of South Dakota, who held that the bringing of the formal accusa- tion was justified by the evidence.
 In the senate probe Campbell who also was indicted by the same grand jury for using the mails to defraud, testified that he had paid Wheeler $4,O00 for appearing in oil litigation in the Montana courts, but that there was

 TRIAL WHEELER NOW UNDER WAY

GREAT FALLS, April 22.-United States Senator Burton K. Wheeler, of Montana, who stood before the nation six months ago as a candidate for the vice presidency, appeared in the fed eral court here the 17th of the month as a prisoner at the bar, accused of selling his political birthright.
 The trial came after long post ponement Senator Wheeler was in dicted here more htan year ago, Apr. 8, 1924, for receiving fees for appear ing before the interior department and prosecuting oil lease applications for his client, Gordon Campbell, Montana oil promoter. Before the election of November 4, last year, he pleaded for an early trial, declaring that he was entitled to acquittal or conviction be- fore the voters of the country con- sidered his name.
