1t is only two weeks until the
Chancellors' primary, Saturday,
April &c. This day was agreed
upon by friends of both candidates.
Before the date was set Judge
Cooper's friends preferred an earlier
date, but at the suggestion of Mr..
Taylor's friends, April 20 was
agreed upon.
This is an important day and
every Democratic voter should par
t1cipate in the primary and vote for
the man he thinks the most COM
petent and in every respect the best
qualified for the position. The
office of Chancery Judge is one of
the most important III the State
and demands the very best talent
In order to discharge the duties of
this office, man needs to have
been a close student of the law and
have actively engaged in the prac-
tice OF law. In addition to this, he
must be man of strong sense of
justice and right and be devoid OF
partisanship. He must be fair
minded and just knowing neither
friend nor enemy in the admins
tration of justice.
Such a man is Judge John S.
Cooper. He has no superior in the
State. Knowing him to be an ideal
citizen in all the relations of life
and judge in whom the peop'e
can rely, we heartily favor his re-
election. IT anyone had any doubt
as to how Gibson county stood, and
had heard the expressions in Tren-
ton last Monday from every part of
the county, they would have been
convinced that Gibson county was
overwhelmingly in favor of Judge
Cooper's reelection. - Dyer Re

Pastors Adopt Resolutions.

The following resolutions with
regard to Rev. ]. H. Wright, late
pastor of the Baptist Church, were
unanimously adopted at a recent
meeting of the Union City Pastors
Association:
Whereas, Rev. j. II. Wright, pastor
of the Baptist Church, has informed
us, the members of the Ministerial
Association of Union City, Tenn, that
he has resigned the pastOrate of his
church here and intends to accept a
call to another church of his denomi-
nation at Nashville, Tenn. and expects
to depart for his field of labor at an
early date.
Therefore, We, the members of the
Ministerial Association, desire to put
on record the following testimony and
resolutions:
Resolved-First, That we take great
pleasure in testifying to our confidence
in the earnest and deep piety and re-
ligiOus character of our brother.
Second, That we cheerfully testify
to his earnestness, zeal and faithful
ness, not only in preaching the gospel
from the pulpit, but as diligent and
laborious pastor.
Third, That he was ever forward,
faithful and bold in opposing and con-
deming all forms of wickedness, all
evil customs, habits, pursuits and
practices.
Fourth, That while he was decided
in his denominational convictions, he
possessed a broad fraternal spirit |
towards his brethren and towards 9th
er churches and denominations, and |
that we shall miss his presence in our
meetings and in our general |
laborS and work to build up the COM
mon and blessed cause of our beloved |
Master.
Fifth, That our prayers and best
wishes for his success and continued |
usefulness go with him to his new
field of labor.

Association March 81, 1902.

CHANCELLoR's RACE.


| We are requested by the friends
OF Judge Cooper to reproduce the
following from the Dyer Re-
porter:
On April rs the Democrats of this
Chancery Division will be called upon
10 nominate a candidate for Judge of
the Chancery Court. There are but
two candidates, Judge John .. Cooper
and K. u. Taylor, both of Trenton.
Judge Cooper has made an excellent
record. He has been an ornament to
the bench and has reflected credit on
the county. He has discharged the
duties OF the office ably and impartial
ly. Those who oppose him concede
all this. No valid reason can be urged
against his reelection 1t is a pity
that so eminent and excellent a Judge
should have any opposition for re. cleo
tion. 1t is a DEMOCRATIC custom to
accord the faithful judges a second
term. Judge Caldwell served four
years as Judge of the Referee Court
and Was twice elected as Supreme
Judge, making twenty years on the
bench. Judge Stuttgart is now serv-
ing his second term; Judge Woods is
also serving his second term. Judge
Flippin is now serving his fourth
term. Judge Bond was Attorney
General for four years and then went
upon the Circuit bench. has been
twice elected and has no opposition
for third term.
We call attention to these men with
whom our readers are familiar to
show what the custom has been. We
could mention Judge Somers, Judge
Livingston and many others, but it is
not necessary. We say it is a Demo-
cratic custom to accord to the judges
second term, so why should Judge
Cooper be singled out for defeat in his
candidacy for reelection? He is the
peer OF any judge in the State. If he
was unfit for the office, then he would
not deserve a second term, but those
who oppose him are forced to concede
his peculiar fitness for the position.
Il. 4. Taylor, who is running against
Judge Cooper, was Clerk and Master
at Trenton for two full terms, and
was an applicant under Judge Cooper
for re-appointment for a third term.
} Judge Cooper, whose duty it was to
make the appointment, thought best
to appoint another, and declining to
Mr.. Taylor he appointed Lee
Grand W. Jones, d lawyer of large ex-
perience and a man of high character
and standing.
1t is regretted that Mr.. Taylor has
seen fit to oppose Judge Cooper from
his own town, and for no reason of in
or unfitness of Judge
Cooper.
We think we know the sentiment of |
5he people of this section. They are
sair-minded. They want to see. the
light thing done. They think Mr..
Taylor was wrong to make the race
against Judge Cooper, and unless we
ire very much mistaken, the people
If Gibson County will show their high
egard and appreciation of Judge
cooper by an overwhelming vote in
he primary. This is right, and it is
'ut doing justly by one of the truest
# men and most conscientious and
UPRIGHT jurists in the State.
