LEADING REPUBLICAN
ISSUES STATEMENT
FOR DEMOCRATIC NOMINEE
Having Known Borrow from Boy
hood, He Dee.afes That He is
"Untainted and Untaintable"

Characterizing his integrity as "un-
tainted and untaintable," ALT Taylor,
another of Tennessee's most promi-
nent republicans, has announced him
self as supporter of the democratic
nominee, Judge Robert Burrow, of
Bristol, for the supreme bench of the
state. In statement issued yester-
day, Mr.. Taylor, who is the brother of
the late Senator Robert L. Taylor, and
himself three times a member of con-
gress and once his party nominee for
governor, gave his reasons for sup
porting Judge Burrow. The state
ment follows;
The people of Tennessee would hon
or themselves by electing Robert Bur-
row to place on the supreme bench.
He is one of the biggest lawyers in
the state and will make an ideal
judge. have known him from early
boyhood, went to school with him at
Dufheld Academy, and our personal
relations have been intimate ever
since. l am speaking from personal
knowledge, therefore, in saying that
he is clean, capable, endowed with a
tempermant which fits him for the
Judiciary, and that his personal integ-
rity is untainted and untaintable. His
election would add dignity to the
bench and inspire confidence in our
highest court. A. A. TAYLOR.

STATEMENT FROM
CHAIRMAN HILL
To the Nashville Banner:

To the Nashville Banner:
In your issue of last Saturday, con-
spiciously displayed on the first page,
under the head of Farmers Strong
for Williams; Condemn Judge Bur-
row." are published resolutions, pur-
porting to have been passed by the
Farmers and Truck Growers Asso-
citation" opposing Judge Robert Bur-
row, the democratic nominee, and fav-
oring Judge Williams candidacy, on
the ground that Judge Burrow. as
practicing attorney, represents the
Southern Railway; and that Mr.. Harry
S. Stokes in speech on the occasion,
certified the seeming policy on the
part of the advocates of Judge Burrow
to keep from the public the fact that
he is the consel for the Southern Rail-
way" and this was followed up by an
editorial on the same subject.
/ had hardly expected that such
methods would be resorted to, but the
fact that Farmer (D Reau Folk and
Farmer CD Thos. ]. Tyne, managers
of Judge Williams campaign, were
present, lending countenance and ap-
proval to the movement, and in fact
instigating it, gives it the appearance
of having the fixed policy of the cam
paign."
the management of the state executive
committee. We are endeavoring to
make clean, open, straightforward
campaign. We have no concealments
to make as to the method of the cam
paign, and Judge Burrows life is an
open book, and we invite the closest
scrutiny, inquiry and inspection into
its every page, both as to his public
and private life.
Judge Burrow and his partner, Mr..
Harr, are local counsel for the South
ern Railway, their duties being to try
suits in the lower courts, which are
brought against the Southern Railway
in Sullivan and Washington counties.
AS lawyers, Harr & Burrow do gen.
eral practice and bring more suits
against other railroads than they de-
fend for the Southern, so that accord
ing to the refinement of Mr.. Stokes
reasoning the slant of his training"
would be against the railroads.
But what about concealing the fact
in reference to Judge Williams con-
nection with the Southern Railway as
attorney? Judge Burrow took Judge
Williams place as Assistant Division
Counsel when me (Williams) retired
from the practice of law. Kirkpat-
rick, Williams and Bowman did ex-
actly the same work for the Southern
Railway that Harr Il Burrow do now,
md had the same title.
/ feel sure that when Mr.. Stokes
earns these facts, and the slant of
udge Williams mind, that he will
lithdraw from him his valuable sup
ort, as will also Mr.. Folk and Mr..
yne. Having these decided views on
his question these gentlemen would
lot be parties to electi a railroad
attorney that had been slipped in on

GEN. THOMPSON
GIVES OPINION
IS lEM0CRATI VICTORY
DestroysAttempt of Hooper-O Con
nor Republicans to Disfranchise
Many Voters IN that City
NASHVILLE Tennessean)

In an opion furnished Sam M.
Young, chairman of the state board Of
elections. Attorney-General Frank M.
Thompson of Tennessee holds that the
registrations of voters in Shelby coun-
ty in 1913, held under the Carter
Reichman and Alexander, or Crump,
board was legal; that the Carter
Reichman and Alexander board was
de facto the board. judicial action by
which sustains the lagaIity of its ac-
tions. The opion was in reply to a
letter from the chairman of the cleo
tion board. The atorney-general
states that this opion is given as a
matter of general interest and based
on the statement of the conditions in
Shelby county as stated by Judge
Young.
Judge l.. d. Hill of teh state demo-
cratic executive committee had also
requested Gen. Thompson for a ruling
on the mater, and in reply he enclosed
the opion sent to Chairman Young
The effect of this ruling will be to
make valid the registration in Shelby
conducted last year by the Carter
Reichman and Alexander board, and
will make the present supplemental
registration simply serve it's real pur-
pose--to provide an opportunity for
persons to register who had moved or
otherwise failed to be enrolled since
the annual registration in 1918. 1t is
victory for the democratic party and
vitiates the attempt of the Hooper
O'Connor republican machine to de-
prive the electorate of Shelby county
of its suffrage by breaking up the old
board in Withdrawing O'Connor and
delaying the supplemental enrolment
under the newly appointed election
commission until such a late day that
half the voters would have been dis
franchised
The following is the letter to Chair
man Young, a copy of which was sent
to Chairman Hill:
Chattanooga, Tenn, July IA, 1914.
"Hon. s. M. Young, Dixon Springs,
Tenn.
Dear Sir:-I have your favor of
July /, but have been unable to get to
The comet. (Johnson City, Tenn.) 1884-1916, 1914-07-23

it so as to give you an answer until
now.
"As l understand it, Carter-Reich-
man and Alexander, who were APP
pointed members of the state board of
elections under the acts subsequently
declared unconstitutional, appointed
three commissioners of elections for
Shelby county. These three commits
sioners enjoined the commissioners
then existing from serving, and under
the injunction went into Office and as
sumed to act as commissioners of
election for that county. In doing SO,
they opened the registration books,
and the people of that county regis
tered
"It is my opion that these election
commissioners for Shelby county were
defacto officers. The Office of commits
sioner of election for the county of
Shelby was not created by the act
creating the state board of election
commissioners, under which Carter
Riechman and Alexander were APP
pointed. The officers for commission
ers of election for Shelby county al
ready existed when this law was pas
sed There was then Offices to be fill
ed. These offices were attempted to
be filed by the appointment of the
new, or Carter, board. They enjoined
the old officers and took possession.
NOW, although the act, creating the
Carter, Reichman and Alexander
board, was unconstitutional, yet these
county commissioners, appointed by
them, were appointed to an Office
which legally existed under the con-
stitution. They, therefore, hold by
color of title. Before holding, how
ever, they ousted the old commission
ers by injunction. This, in my opion,
would bring the case clearly under the
principals announced in the case of
Mclean ct al, VS.. the State of Ten
nessee, in eighth Heiskevy, page 231.
"Of course this opion is based upon
the facts as they are presented to me
only in your letter and as | understand
them. | do not claim, however, to
know the exact facts. ] do not know
that it was proper for me to give this
opion, because there may arise litiga-
tion affecting the rights of these con
tending offices, about which l should
not give an Opion, but at the same
time, as it is matter of public inter-
est, and you desire it, | give you the
opion upon the facts as | understand
them.
81 have been requested for an opion
from the Hon. l.. D. Hill, chairman of
the state committee. OF course, offic-
tally, / could not give him an opion.
/ am however, sending him copy of
this letter for his information, coupl-
ed with this statement that as to him,
it is not official. Yours truly,
