ty, has been nominated By the Repub-
licans. The Judge is an able lawyer
and ought to receive the fall Repub'i-
can vote ofthe district. His opponent,
Judge Cate claims to be State Rights
Democratic Republican. That is, he
is a Democrat who endorses the State
Rights doctrine Of Judge Smith and
condemns the position Of Judge Dixon;
he is Democrat, but voted for Free
