It is generally considered a the man Major favors will be selected though there are some who contend that the party nominee cuould have nothing more lo say than any other candidate and when the entire state committee is selected the line-up may be pretty well predicted. The friends of John M.

Robert M. Reynolds of Marshall is picked by others.

He is a of the state committee and if the selection is confined to that committee as it was done tw lation of Col.
