NOMINATED IN ooNvENTIoN
j. Il. Mills, Regarded as Anti.Saloon
League Candidate, Did Not Like

Race Against Major.

Returns from twelve OF the thirteen
precincts In the county show that ma
jor James II. Stubs has been elected
to the House of Delegates from Glou-
ccstcr by a plurality of about 100 votes
over his two opponcnts-J. T. Mills

The election Of Major Stubs who
has served in one branch or the other

Mitchell. of King and Queen County.
a few days later Judge Taliafcrro
notified the county committee Of his
inability TO make the race for the
House, and Major Stubs again became
"a candidate represent his county in
the lower branch OF the Assembly. The
county committee decided to hold q
convention to fill the vacancy ON the
ticket. Mills, who had finished second
TO Taliaferro in the primary. and Il
was regarded as the
League candidate, declined TO enter tho
convention. and announced his candi-
dacy to be voted for in the general
election. The convention unanimously
nominated Major Stubs. The Mills's
followers vigorously challenged the
validity OF .fajor Stubbs's nomination
in the invention, and q bitter cam
paiEn followed, party and fractional
lines being oblitcratcd.
Major Stubbs is a familiar figure in
