Redding, Pike’s representative in the next general assembly: “In selecting Hon. John F. Red ding as their standard bearer for repnsentative, the democrats of Pike county have choseu one of the stron gest men in that county, and one whose worth is recognized all over the state. Colonel Redding was born in Monroe county but he has lived in Pike ever since he was two years old. He is one of the ablest and most successful lawyers in the Flint circuit. He has always takeu an active interest in politics. In 1882 and 188.1 he represented Pike in the legislature, and was an active member. He was ou the judiciary committee and also oil the railroad committee and in 1882 made the first speech on the floor of the house in fi.voi of taxing railroads for coun ty purposes. The bill passed the house, but vas defeated in the senate. It was the same in principle as that now known as the Glenn bill. Col. Redding was regarded as one of the ablest men in the bouse. One of his speeches I have beard spoken of by old members, and that was on the state road question, on a resolution. I believe, to disxiss the suit of the attorney general, inquiring tns les aees to give the state additional secu rity. He opposed the resolution and deleuded the attorney general, and I have beard the scene at the conclu sion of his speech described as being the most notable of that lively ses sion. He is suable 1 iwj’er, and will unquestionably be one of the leading members in the new house.” HAPPILY WEDDED.
