ALLEGED UNION or CHURCH AND POLITICS

Charleston, S. C. June 80 (speciah.-A SENSATION
has been created here by the publication OF a card
from a we'll known politician who charges that the
path the Goveorshp OF the state lies only through
the Protestant Episcopal Church; also. that this
Church dominates the State University, while Metho-
dists, Baptsts, Presbyterans and Lufheans, the
least of which outnumbcrs the Epscopallans hVe 10
one, have been compelled TO build and support thelr
own colleges. Tie time has come. he says, when
of religious principles should be made Governors
and their eligibility should not be confined to the
Episcopal Church. He therefore nominates for inc
Office Giles J. Patterson. OF Chester, who has been
superintendent of Methodist Sunday school for years.
The card has caused comment and some re.
searches into history. 1t is found that most Oh
the anteb clum Governors OF the Sta;c were Episco-
palans. by profession II not by practice since 1870
when the Democrats gained possession or thc .sNern-
