Strong opposition will be voiced by the
Knoxville bar, board of commerce, and
business men of this city and East
Tennessee generally against the pro-
posed plan Of holding all sessions of
the state supreme court at Nashville
In the future instead of holding the us

Nashville. A concerted movement
against the plan has begun.
Judge Will D. Wright stated that In
his opinion such action could not be
done legally, under the constitution OF
1870. He declares that lawyers over
all East Tennessee win strenuously OPP
pose such a movement.
Judge Wright declared II would be a
great injustice to Knoxville and East
Tennessee as we'll as In violation of
the constitution Of Tennessee, 1t is
| stated that II would work a great hard
shin upon .igants in this end Of the
| state as they would be forced TO pa

Attendants carried her out struggling

Another woman took up the cry, and
while she was being dragged out two
