Show REVELATION ON A "BUST," The revelation received by the temple. tem-ple. worker that ho was to be tho candidate candi-date of tho Saints for Governor once more, appours to have been a fraud. It is a sad fact, that tho revelations of j tho bogus priesthood arc oftou of the j samo character. Accordingly, tho chief I prophet, seer, and rovclator of the I fraudulent bunch, seeing that revclat-ing revclat-ing was such uncertain business, solemnly solemn-ly confesses under oath that he hns ncvor received a revelation in his life, though for so many years "sustained" as "prophet, s.ccr, and rovclator," by those who have been duped into that course without having any very clear idea of what -wns meant by tho "sustaining" "sus-taining" process. For nothing is more common than for the "Saints" themselves, them-selves, even after they havo for 3'cars held up their right hands in the "sustaining," "sus-taining," to later on repudinto the whole business, deny tho inspiration inspira-tion or revelation of those heretofore sustained, and squirm out of all obligation obli-gation to be bound by the utterances of the dead rovclator. Therefore, it is no particular surprise sur-prise to find that the temple man who thought that he was again to run for Governor, was mistaken. He took the wrong cue. It Is another wht is "chosen of tho Lord." Tho voice of tho more exalted revelalor must prevail, pre-vail, as the roar of the steam "siren" drowns tho feeble piping of tho penny whistle. No doubt the leinplo worker thought that he had tho right cue. But ho was in error. It wasn't the voice of "the Lord" that he heard, but the whispor i of egotism and ambition; and he must pa as ordinary mortals pay, in mortification mortifi-cation and chagrin for his ludicrous blunder. It must be confessed, to be candid altogether al-together in this matter, that the voice of the real revelation, that which retires re-tires the temple man from a position where he is as ridiculous a misfit as his ambitious revelation and announcement announce-ment of second candidacy is in the po litical situation, that tho higher revelation revela-tion which cancels his littlo personal revelation, is quite in accord with public pub-lic wishes and ideas of fitness. For the lomplo worker as Governor is a grotesque gro-tesque figure, so plainly a rattle and humiliation to tho people, that four ycaTS more of his incumbency would be hard to bear. It is conceded, of-course, that if tho temple-worker's revelation had been accoptcd by the expert censors and revelators out at the church headquarters, head-quarters, ho would have been retained in the position at present made desolate by his occupancy. But it was too much for the ovorlordship of revelation to stand,-even through rejecting him there had to be a quasi confession that in putting linn there in the first place tho boss revelators made a pitiful mistake. The voice of the only real revelalor that we have, in rejecting the temple man, is said to havo fixed upon the federal fed-eral process-server to succeed him. This, it is seen by even tho half-eye of revelation, reve-lation, should make a federal position vacant, and put it at tho disposal of the church bosses as a reward for a good and faithful servant. And so one hand is made to wash another, and all things to work together "for the glory of God and his Saints." |
