MILLER IS LEADING

Judge B. M. Miller is leading in all re- ports for one of the positions on the su- preme court, with Judge William Thomas and J. B. Brown receiving good votes for the other. However the returns are a shade the better for Judge Thomas.
 Judge Henry P. Merritt, incumbent, evil dently has been nominated to succeed himself on the court of appeals, though returns in this race are scattered. He has a good lead in Jefferson and returns from other counties give him a plurality.
 The race for commissioner of conserva- tion is in doubt. A. L. Marlborough seems to have made surprising race against John H. Wallace, incumbent, and the of ficial count will be necessary to deter mine the winner.
