All the protests emanated from
the Republican delegation, whose

sweeping in the extreme.

sought to prevent his elevation to
the office to which he had been
recommended by the executive.
He was charged with political
crookedness. corruptness while a
judge of the corporation court OF
Bristol, and other similar offenses.
Senator Noel, of Lee, led the fight
for the Republicans.
Judge Rhea has been charged. de-
clared Senator Noel, with abetting
frauds in elections. he has been
charged with accepting a bribe while
holding the office of Judge. he has
been charged with changing the re-
turns in the Sections in Buchanan
Russell and Scott counties. He
should not become a member OF the
corporation commission with thee
charg s resting upon him, urged
the senator. who insisted that the
appointment be recommhted to the
committee on nominations until the
charges be investigated.
Senator John X. Hart. OF Roam.
oke, made his first app arance I'm
the senate yesterday. Senator Hart
has been III almost from the day OF
his election. He underwent a serl-
Gus surgical operation for appendi-
citis at Christmas.
He was sworn in as a member
of the senate soon after that BODY
was called TO order.
