METHODIST UNION
CARRIED BY A BIG MAJORITY. The secretary of the union committee of the Primitive Methodist Church reports that the returns of voting received from the whole of the stations in the Dominion in connection with the vote of the members of that church taken by instruction of the last conference, which closed on Thursday evening, resulted in 1477 votes being recorded for union and 260 against. The vote has been taken on a strict basis of membership in society meetings only. The conferences of both churches having approved of the "basis of union, the committee of the Primitive Methodist Church will meet at Wellington on the 3rd April to take the necessary steps for securing the consent of the British Conference to the union, which it is expected will be consummated next year.
