Supreme Judges of Tennessee.
We further endorse Hon. J. B.
Frazier as Democratic candidate
for Governor of Tennessee for the
ensuing two years.
We, your committee, recommend
to this convention the endorsement
of the Hon. John M, Taylor, OF
Henderson County, Tenn, as
candidate for Judge of the Court
of Chancery Appeals, and that the
delegation from Obion County, Ten
nessee, be instructed to vote for
him in the State Judicial Conven-
ton at Nashville as long as his
name is before the convention.
We recommend that no proxies
be allowed by the delegations from
Obion County, Tennessee, at the
State Conventions at Nashville in
this behalf.

MINORITY REPORT.
We, the minority members OF the
committee, make the following mi
nority report:
We endorse the report of the
committee in everything except the
recommendation for Chancery Court
of Appeals. We would heartily en-
dorse the candidacy of Hon. E. S.
Mallory, of Jackson, Tenn, for
Chancery Court of Appeals, and ask
that this convention instruct the
Obion delegation to vote for said
Mallory in the convention at Nash
Vile. E. r. BRUCE,
w. w. NORRIS.
F. M. Woody moved to table the
report. The motion was
lost, the vote standing 26M to
28B.
A motion to not instruct dele
gates in the Court of Chancery APP
peals race prevailed. With that ex-
ception the majority report was
adopted.
]. H. Mcdowell moved to amend
the ma iority report by striking out
the name of John e. Wells for State
from the Ninth Con-
gressional District and inserting
the name of the present member OF
the State Committee, James E.
of Humboldt. The con-
vention failed to sustain the mo-
ton, the vote standing Al to IA.
