JUO6E GRIGGS AGGEPTS
§IXTH DEMOCRATIC NOMINATION
FOR CONGRESS,
et
Points Out the Service of the Demo
cratic Party, Though in the
Minority, to the People.
Judge Griggs, who was recently
unanimously renominated by the
temocrats to represent the second
{istrict in congress, has sent to the
notification committee the following
letter of acceptance:
pawsoN, Ga., July 12th, 1906.;
Hon. Jeff. L. Boynton, Hon. John
Triplett, Hon. Henry M. Mclntosh,
Notification Committee. Gentlemen:
| have delayed replying to your
very kind letter notifying me of my
¢ixth unanimous nomination by the
lemocratic party of the second dis
trict for congress until congress
sdjourned in order that I might be
able to speak with certainty as to
the record of the several preceding
coneresses of which I have been a
member.
[ was first nominated by the dem
ocrats of this district to the fifty
fith congress, and T have therefore
served continuously in congresses
with republican majorities. Al
though it is fashionable to claim
credit for all good legislation to the
party in power my exgerience for
ten years has taught me that this is
not alweys the correct rule.
To illustrate; there is no doubt
that President McKinley and con
gress were strongly opposed to any
act looking toward freeing Cuba
from the galling yoke of Spanish
domination. Continuous taunts
from the democratic minority final
ly drove them to the declaration of
war which ended in Cuban inde
pendence. While T opposed the ac
tion of the congress at that time, be
cause 1 believed it to be against the
interest of the people of this sec
tion, I can at the same time see
some good aceruing to the country
at large and unquestionably great
good to the people of Cuba. As
your representative, however, I
felt it my duty to vote against that
which T conceived to be against
your interests. Time has confirmed
A Good House
Leaving a good house un
painted is as imprudent as
leaving greenbacks out in the
rain. A house unprotected
by good paint cracks and rots
and is unsightly all the time.
Whatever you do, paint/
Whenever you paint, use
pure white lead paint. You
will have the best if it is

\my confidence in the correctness of
ithat vote.
~ Another illustration is the growth
‘of the rural free delivery service.
|Whenl was first elected as your
‘representative an appropriation of
‘flfty thousand dollars was being
‘made for this service, then and for
iseveral years prior thereto, in the
experimental stage. While there
lis much discussion and difference of
iopinion as to the originator of this
great service now ramifying every
state and county, requiring thirty
millions of dollars annually for its
support, there is no question that
the democratic party is responsible
at least equally with the majority%
party for its great expansion and
the beneficent results following
therefrom. {
Coming down to later days, noth
ing but the constant pressure of thel
democratic party in congress added
the new star of Oklahoma to our
flag. The railroad rate bhill is
the result of republican and
democratic conferences, and may
very properly be called a non
partisan measure. Nothing, how
ever, but the constant goading of
the republicans by democrats
brought that party around to the
consideration of such legislation.
Whether we are successful or not
in carrying the next house it will
be the democratic aim to press tar
iff revision, as it has pressed the
other measures named above, al
though 1 see no hope of escape for
the people from unjust tariff exac
tions without a democratic adminis
tration. .
That we have often been instru
mental in defeating bad legislation
no well informed man will deny.
I have called attention to these
matters solely to show the demo
erats of the second district that, in
spite of the frequent declaration of
the croaker to the contrary, th.e
democratic party, even as a mi
nority, has always been of great
service to the country. The sixth
unanimous nomination to congress
by the democrats of the second
Georgia district is a compliment of
which any man should be proud.
Coming, always as now, with sucb
generous expression of your confi
dence, I am unable to return my
thanks in words. A failure to serve
you faithfully and energetically with
all the powers at mycommat_ld would
be base ingratitude. It gives wme
great pleasure to accept the nomi
nation, and to pledge you aqd,
through you, the people of'thls dis
trict my most faithful service.
Thanking you gentlemen person
ally and assuring you of my highest
regard, I remain, sincerely yours,
Jag. M. GRIGGS.

| PAYS FIRST DEATH CLAIM
The Southern Life Insurance Company
Settles Promptly With Estate of
John W. Pace, Deceased.
The Southern Life Insurance Com
pany, of this place, has paid to Mnr.
W. L. Pace, administrator of the es
tate of Mr. John W. Pace, deceased,
$l,OOO as full settlement of the insur
ance policy held by Mr. Pace in this
home company. The letter published
below from Mr. W. L. Pace shows
that the management of this company
has acted with perfect fairness and in
a thorough business-like manner in
the settlement of this claim. There is
po denying the fact that this company
is good for all of its obligations; it is
officered by men of experience and bus
iness ability, and they have demon
strated that the people of Terrell coun
ty can carry their own insurance with
perfezt safety, and at but little cost.
Mr. Pace had paid into the company
his policy fee of $4 00 and one assess
ment in advance, which at his age was
only $1.63, making a total payment of
§5.63, which paid to his estate an even
thousand dollars. An institution of
this kind is worth thousands of dol
lars to our people, as all are able to
carry at least one thousand dollars
of insurance, getting it at actual cost
and keeping all of the money at home,
where it is handled by home people
and paid out to home people; where we
can all derive some benefit from the
circulation of it. We are proud of
The Southern Life Insurancz Com
pany, and predict for it a glorious fu
ture. The people of the south are
awakening to the fact that we have
right here with us the brains, the mon- ‘
ey and the energy to run our affairs at
a lower cost than foreign brains, mon- {
ey and energy can be secured for.-‘
This company belongs to the people;
all are interested and should con
sider it a pleasure to pay their assess
ments promptly when called for, as we
know where the money goes and that
it is being rightly used. Mr. Pace’s
letter follows:
DAwsoN, Ga., July 16, 1906.—The
Southern Life Insurance Co., Dawson,
Ga. Gentlemen: I desire to express
my thanks for your prompt and cour
teous attention in the adjustment of
the claim of John W. Pace, deceased,
who was insured in your excellent
company for one thousand dollars,
and to say that on the very first day
I was able to render you a receipt as
administrator of the estate of John
W. Pace, deceased, the full sum of
one thousand dollars ($1,000.00) was
promptly paid me.
I can heartily recommend The
Southern Life Insurance Company to
any one in need of good insurance at
the lowest possible cost. I own a pol
icy in the company myself and would
‘advise all my friends who are physic
‘ally able to secure a policy with you
to place their application on file at
‘once.
Againthanking you for your prompt
and buslness-like method of dealing
with me, I am, very truly yours.
W. L. PACE.
Administrator of the Kstate of
John W. Pace, deceased.
