While ensmalling the Prophet as a religious. Welsh. teacher, this achalar nagnifies him as a civil leader and the founder of a state. Gathering the wild and warring tribes of Arabia into one fold, he abolished their blood feuds, took up the authority of the Sheiks, in the Koran gave them at once a book of religion and a Vivif constitu tion, and made the sons of Ishmael a force that made conquest of the world from the to the Himalayas.
Pyrenees
The belief has been held by historians and philosophers that if Abderahmin had won the battle of Tours, all Europe and America would to-day be Mohammedan instead of Christian, and the Koran would be expounded in Oxford and Cambridge and Yale and Harvard.
Mormonisan closely imitated alam in its at tention to civics and materialities, and all modern prophets who have flourished for a time have attended closely to the affairs ŋf this world, while using revelation to direct their followers to the life to come. The most suc cessful of these in our immediate time, 'was Dowie, the third Eljah, the founder of the Christian Catholic church and of Zion City, His career deserves study as an example of what one deteránited man'can do with his fol lowers, when he brings them under the spell of mystery in religious teaching.
He began his career in California, but made Do impression here. Settling in Chicago he 1000 reached prominence, success and wealth. Persecution, that promoter of the fortunes of such prophets, aided him. Thousands flocked to his altor. Able preachers of orthodox Chris tianity for ook their pulpits and became his. missionaries. The rich joined him and poured their fortunes into his treasury: He organized excellent civil government fir Zion, founded manufacturing industries warted a bank and controlled millions. But his attention to all the vast details of the government and bassiness of his holy city never caused hom in amit a single feature of formality that was needed to hold the imagination of his followers. Out- siders who have attended his religious services will not forget their siately character. He comprehended keenly the use of wageantry and impressive spectacle in controlling man, The chanting of sacred sanga by his surpliced choir, the sonorous venitalinis of his ritual and his own appearance in purple jobs, and bis moving and sympathetic preachine arcntated to the sober mind for his vast influence over the wander seekers, the counting and unitappy, and the lovers of marvel and mystery."
But great as was his rise and reign. what follows his fall: romises to be grenter.. He has been deposed. His wife and and turn upon him and expo e him as a charlatan and preten. der. His attorney in fact has conveyed all the property in Zion, amounting to millions, ta another head of the church. 11 is asserted that he had begun the teaching ni polewamy, which probably accounts for the delection of his family. His son says that if he resist deposition and make trouble he will be overcome by re- velations that will startle the world. Now the greatest wonder of all is that his followers adhere to the church he found, to the system he created, to the revelations he gave them i
When he was in the prime of his physical presence and power one could account for his influence. Then when he failed to effect a miraculous cure he said it was because men ata pork, and he commanded his apostles to ge into the hog raising country and command the farmers to destroy their hogs. They went preaching against pork, and the farmers in Tows and South Dakota actually killed their hogs by the thousands and burned them is piles. But then Dowie was the head of Zion. Now he has fallen. Yet the super stitious following that he summoned. while
unanimously in depose and defy him, after listening to denunciation of him by his wife and ann, who accuse him of hypocrisy and insinuate that he is a thief, propose to go on in the path pointed out by his revelations, and to regulate their lives by the light and leading of his preaching and ritual, hoping to enter the future life by the portal he builded:
After this let no man wonder at the next prophet nor marvel at his success. The story of Dowis proves that mankind is always ripe on both sides to be fooled and robbed by any one who will with proper accessories and pa geantry, pretend to know all about that of which no man can know anyibing.
The Mohammedan biographer of the Pro- phet Mohammed is right. The founding of a new religion is easy as long as the people cry. "give us a sign,” but it in greater to found a #tale.-S. F. Call.
