Ciiunou association, in the Manx building. Sail Lake City, Utah, today, request ine to appear before the bishopric of the Fifth ward of Ogden, at a certain time and place, to answer certain charges filed against me by Elder William (1, Rackliain. "The charge are that I ain guilty of conduct and apost-ac- y in having written two editorial articles, which appeared in the Salt Lake Tribune of which paper I am editor under the following titles: 'An Analysis of the Church No. 1,' and An Address to the Earthly King of the Kingdom of God.' "Thanking you for the courteous manner in which you and the others Involved In this proceeding have acted toward me personally, I present the following answer: I wrote the articles in question. "They are true In letter and In spirit, giving due consideration to the fact that one of them la written In the tone of a parable. They were prepared and printed because of an apparent public need to know the truth concerning the manner in which the present president of the church exercises the authority of his office. "Elder Rackham hIso charges that when he visited me and endeavored to convince me of error, and asked me If I sustained Joseph F. Smith as head of the church. I answered that I did not sustain him, and that Joseph "F. Smith was leaving the worship of God and waa worshipping mammon and was leading the people astray. This Is a correct presentation of the answer given by me to Elder Rackham. maintain that the language used by me to Elder Rackham is the truth. At the present moment of writing I expect to attend the meeting of the bishopric, ns requested, and to there make such further oral answer as the occasion may demand. But In case any circumstances shall prevent, I hereby protest In tha most fraternal spirit, and yet in the most positive way. against your exercise of Jurisdiction, or the exercise of Jurisdiction by any other tribunal of the church to try me, with possible consequences of disfellowship or excommunication, for having written the articles as statedr truthfully and to answer a public need. Further, I claim that by your attempted exercise of such Jurisdiction my right as a citizen in this free republic Is being assailed. Rut in case you shall set nside that protest, and shall desire further answer to the charges of Elder Rackham, I offer a brief observation on the subI ject. "Having been born in the covenant, I have deemed myself, by race, a Mormon.

"It has been a belief that such affliction would come to the people if present policies in the church should be persisted In. that has caused the public assertion of my present attitude.
