Senator Duncan's Reply l Editor Lee County Journal, I have just been shown a squib in your | paper, signed by, Many Voters; saying that Thad resigned my office of Senator of the roth district, and that ILhad mov ed my residence to Atlanta Ga. and was 1 carrying on a drug business in that city. ‘ I wish you togive me space in your pa per to contradict the whole statement. I give in my poll tax and pay the same in Lee county and claim itas my hom=. In which I have precedents in other cit izens and officers in Leecounty, andl know of no law which prevepts a senator from embarking in a business other than in the county he lives. I have had to keep my wife in Atlanta in the advice of physicians under whose treatment she has been for several months, and see no reason why a man’s family should be al lowed to die without medical attention because he is afraid of loosing his cit izenship. The executive committee have no mnight to declare a va cancy in any office and order an election to fill the same. Nobody has tk~ right ‘to declare a vacancy in the Senate except ‘the Governor, and he first has to secure jthe resignation of the Senator if living, or a notice of his death, and the Senate is the sole judge of its members and their right to hold office in their body and I therefore wish to state that the insinna tion in your paper was without the knowledge or consent of yours respect fully A.
