TEXAS ME1nODISIS
MAY Be DIVIDED ON
PROHIBITION QUESTION

GALVESTON, May Ex-Governor
Colquitt of Texas having lined up with
the anti-prohibition interests in their
fight against statewide prohibition,
and having accepted invitations to
make public speeches in the campaign
his resignation from the Methodist
church has been asked for.
The governor has declined to quit
the church and he refuses to be ex-
PEELED. He insists on being a Meth
odist and worshiping in the Metho-
dist faith, regardless of whether the
church officials cancel his membership
or not.
The governor has made public his
position, and declares his stand Is a
political proposition and not a matter
of religion and neither the Methodist
nor any church has any power to die
tate to it's members whether they shall
vote for or support prohibition or anti
prohibition.
The controversy threatens to divide
the Methodists in Texas for the cam.
paign for statewide prohibition is
warm and the election is to be held
in July. Many are siding with and
many siding against the chief execu-
tive.
The issue in the gubernatorial cam
paign was submission Of the question
of statewide prohibition to the peo.
pie of Texas.
Submission carried, necessitating
the election in July. but Governor Col
quit with five candidates in the field,
was elected on the anti-prohibition
ticket, and always has been claimed as
a friend of the liquor interests. The
governor says his forefathers in Geor-
gia labored to establish the Methodist
church and they HAD much to do with
it's rules and regulations,
but they did not put prohibition into
the confession of faith nor did they
establish it as one of the rules govern.
