McNutt, of Martinsville, a well known attorney, is a candidate for the appelate judgeship, left vacant by the resignation of Judge Shea, who has been appointed United States minister to Chili. Mr. McNutt has often practiced in the local courts, and is well and popularly known in Putnam county. As Governor Ralston has announced that he will appoint the man who is nominated for the office at the next state convention, Mr. McNutt’s friends here are now working in his interests.
