Mokm Salty Reply to Allegations Against Political Honesty of Parker Supporters tn 2nd District and De mos That There Is Fight on Griggs - Judge W. N. Spence of the Albany circuit at the Democratic mass meeting in Camilla last week discussed the pol - toeal situation in the second congress ional district, wit It especial reference to a resent article in the Albany Herald which charged "that he and the other Democrats of tills district-who songht the election of Judge Kiddoo uud Capt. Triplett as delegates to the National Convention were insincere in their ac tion—that they were not working tor Judge Parker at all, but were only trying "to down Jim Griggs" for the effect that it might have on ilia candi dacy for reelection to congress two years from now.” TheJndge stated that it was clear to his mind that this cliarge had been made in the article solely in order to frighten those democrats in the district who had beeu supporters of Jndge Griggs for congress and who might de- gim a continuance of his congressional career,—to frighten them and thus , cunse them to desert the canse of Judge Parker for fear that Parker’s snocesa might menu danger to Jndge Griggs. Jndge Silence denounced as false any ' cliarge or luaintuitiou against the sin cerity of himself and his friends in sup porting Jndge Parker, and, aa illustrat ing the falsity of tho charge that that support was in the interest of any am- b tioo of Ills own, stated that he had no gsreonal desire 10 eutor congressional polities. He had made that assertion to Jndge Griggs and others more than nnoe and it was his position now. The Jndge remarked that the schem- fng politicians who hatched np this maiipioas article in the Albany Herald daring this little friendly coutest among democrats as to who should be their candidate for president were trying to drive him to say now that he would neyer, in the future be a* candidate for congress, and 1* stated that he had never beeu driven to any ]>o.-ition in tiie history of his public career—that he liad tried to do hia own thinking and to be opeu and sincere with himself ami friends in the advocacy of political measures aud candidates—Unit he had never attempted to conceal Ilia attitude in any political contest, and Judge Spence added with emphasis that it WM Plate day for these small politi- S .ns to attempt to impeach his sinceri ty in politics goiug before the people • Win* such an article as this'iu the Herald. He stated that he had never beeu a candidate for more than one otiice at one time, but tliut since Mr. McIntosh, in this article, had mentioned "two years Jiencers," lie would call attention to one to whom tho term indeed applied. Here he severely criticised Congressman Griggs for trying to forestall the people in the selection of their candidate for con gross by announcing for re-noniinaticn Jndge Spence as one of his friends and supporters, to aid in carrying ont tho plan. Judge Spence stated that he told Congressman Griggs in this cauens t hat he was friendly to him as a congressman, but that he conid not conscientiously join him in the support of Hearst for President, and then and there, in friendly way, prged him to go bank to his post of duty at Washington and not try to force Hearst npon his friends in this district who could not support him without violating their own sense of public duty. Judge Spence slated that Congress, man Griggs had industriously songht to have tho Executive Committees send men to the State Convention who were favorable to the candidacy of Editor McIntosh and Mr. Wheeler Norman, who were the candidates of Judge Griggs for the position of delegates from the Second Congressional District to the National Convention—that Judge Griggs had ridden over a number of counties in this work seeing the mem bers of the Executive Committees in person, "and,” added the Jndge, "be. cause a few gentlemen, some six or seven, from perhaps as many counties, met in Albany and consulted aa to the candidacy of Parker delegates,—mot there one night during the last term of Dougherty Superior Conrt>.-;to consult about Parker delegates,—the charge is made that a great scheme is brewing, a slate is "Used" for me to ron for con gress two years henoe. Although soma of Judge Grigg’s warm friends and sup porters were in that meeting. I tell yon yon, gentlemen, that we dty nothing more than what yon have done today, that is, we consoled as free men abont the exercises of oar right to aid in so leeting a President." TILLMAN REPLIES Roddenbery’a Views Regarding Im pure Syrup Attacked. In a letter to the Savannah News Mr. Joseph Tillman of Quitman severely at- tacks the viewa of Mr. W. B. ltoddon bery of Cairo on the preservation of cane syrop. Mr. Roddenbery, as has been mentioned before in these columns, was a leading lignre in the cano grow- ers' convention and his conclusions, ex- p essed ip a very exhaustive paper were accepted as authority. Mr. Tillman writes as follows: “My attention has been drawn to Mr. W. B. Koddonbery'a remarks at the sc- called Sugar Cano Growers’ Conven tion, at Jacksonville. He spoke of the cifHcalties of making the low grades of syrnp. Tn this lie is right; but the ■inestioi, is, why should there be any low grades of syrop; no syrnp wonld re main good in barrels longer titan four mouths, aud the only solution was in the hermetically sealed can or bottle. In this assertion, he is as far wrong os is tiie East from the West, Imparities are tiie cause of syrnp soaring and fer menting. It innst ho cleanaed of the natural imparities in cam, or other things of which syrnp is made, aud then it will remain in its virgin purity iu barrels for years—no telling how long. Thonsands of onr most reputable citizens will assert as to the correct ness of what I here state. They have tried it and know of their own' isirsonal knowledge that it is tree.

Mr. Henry Diokey who was killed near the Strickland store at Iamonia last Saturday night by a negro named Beecy Harris, was buried Monday morning at the family ground. Mr. Dickey was raised here, bat for several years had been living in the Cairo dis trict. He leaves a wife and eight chil dren. Mr. George Brown coudncted the bnrial service. Mr. A. R. Sessions went to Metcalfe Saturday. Messrs. J. M. Blackshear Jr. and Prof. F. G. Bose, went to Thomasville Saturday. The latter gentleman took the train for Metcalfe to spend Sunday with his brother, Rev. E. E. Rose. The suggestion of Col. S. G. McLen don, that st the Primary election "only snch ballots be counted as vote for all three representations places" does not meet with favor here. Messrs. Frank Jones and G. R. PrinJ gle of Thomasville passed through beta Monday on their way to Lake Iamonia for a week fishing. PRIZE OATS Mr. Bean Produces Two Acres Flva and a Half Feat High. The Franklin Life Insurance Ce. Springfield, Illinois A satisfied Policyholder is a company’s best advertisement—Read the following which are specimens of thousands of others written about the Franklin: / United States Senate, Committee on Foreign Relations.

To whom it may cpficern: I have been insured for many years in the Franklin Life Insurance Company, of Springfield Illinois, and consider the company one of the best in existence. My personal acquaintance with the officers and directors of the company has been of many years standing and I regard them as men of the very highest character and standing. Very respectfully, S. M, Cullorn. Prize agricultural products have al ready begun to come in. Mr. J. R. Bean who Urea on CarroU Hill, brought to the Timee-Enterpriae yesterdaj a sample of oata that takes the cake so far. The sample was five feet six in ches laU by Timet-Euterprise measure, and Mr. Bean saya he has two whole acres guaranteed to he just like the sam ple. The oats are of the May variety and were planted since Christmas. The most significant foot connected with the mat ter though is that not one ounce of fer tilizer was used.and that th# oats have attained tills maguiftceut development iu spite of the prevailing drouth. Mr. Bean came to Thomas from mid dle Georgia, where lie says farmers liaee to dig for a living. He hasn't got accustomed to "jnst scratching” yet and iiis oats are oue result.

For Southern Georgia, ThomaS'ville,' Ga. HARRISON ACCUSED. Bad N*gro Thought to Have Killed Henry Dickey. A very wiiiHatioual account of the murder of Mr. Henry Dickey at Susina appeared In Tuesday’* Savannah News. Tho account came from Tallahassee and stated that Dickoy’a throat was cut from ear to ear f hia head chopped otf and his skull split opeu. It also stated that Thomas Dickey his brother whs missing and tliut sheriff Hopkins iuul left Thoraasrille on a search. Inquiry developed the fact that Thoraaf Dickey was heard directly from by telegram ns late as Sunday uud so British Soldiers Slaughter Thibetans. Loudon, May L—An official report says that a Thibetan attack at Oyan- gtse, Thursday, was repulsed after two hours' fighting. The ThibotauH lost two huudrod and fifty killed mid wound ed, while the British only lost two. Japanese Reoccupy Fong Wang Chen St. Petersburg, Mny 7.—Tho rumor is confirmed that tiie Russians have fal len back uud that the Japanese liave ro- occuptod Feng Wang Cheng. Tiie Jap anese pressed the retreating troops, though with few losses on either side. The Japanese destroyed the railroad at Port Adums, blowing np the buildings. ■ he- j „yrni> wiU redeem all of tho sugar uaue far a* could be learned the mutilations of his brother were not so ghastly as tho Tallahassee news gatherer would to succueu himself two year fore the primary was held to nominate i growing regions of the South. Here him tins year, aud at the same l’me lea v- I every farmer can become a syrnp maker, ing iiis pout of duty at Wasltfugtou, where congress was still iu session, to come 10 this district aud resort to un heard of methods to the delegates to the State Convention who would vote for Hearst delegates to St. Louis. The Judge stuted that in tho person of Con gressman Griggs the Herdld Editor might find a “two year bencor,” us well as u double present year candidate, without drawing on his vivid imagina tion The Judge stated that at the be ginning of this movement, to make sure that Congressman Griggs would be a real “two years, hencer” for congression al honors by default, as well as presi dent-maker this year, he, Judge Si>ence, was invited by telegram from Washing ton, signed by Congressman Griggs, to meet him in Albany for a caucus, and there the plan to leave the field for congressional honors to our present con gressman alone and secure to him the farther honor of going to the St. Louis Convention.^ pat in nomination for President Mr. Hearst was revealed, and there Congressman Griggs appealed to aud that, in addition, to all tho necessa ry crops, according to his means. The time is uear at baud when this is to be come the poor man’s “paradiso found.” Already we have abundrtut evidence of its attractibility. All that is lacking now to cause immigration to flow easy iu this direction, is to have the country rightly, honestly and correctly present ed. I will say further, that Capt. John G. 3fcCall, at my request, as a test, left several bettles of his syrup made in 1002 by the Tillman process without stoppers, and at the end of twelve months found it just as good in every respect as it was the day lie stored it in his dark pantry. And again, syrup made by tiie old methods, aud hermet- rically sealed, have this year bursted the can wide opeu. If the impurities of syrup is not eliminated thoroughly, then the syrup is not fit for use, aud I do not care by whom made. The itopuri- ti?s are very hurtful to the stomach and Pence unhealthful to the entire system. Joseph Tillman. Quitman, Ga., May 9, lfcOJ. have one believe. Sheriff Hopkins Florida has not been in Thomasville for many Mays. He has, however com mu ■ nicated with tiie Thomas county offi cers asking their help in his search for the murderer. A negro named Reese Harrison is ao- cused of having committed tho crime and he is described as lieiug abont five feet eight inches tall, weighing 140 pounds, 10 years old aud of a mark inn Istto color. He lias several relatives iu this county. The deed was a dastard ly one and a reward will probably be offered for his capture.
