QUOTES DAILY OF TEXAS The Great Democratic Leader In Congress. The following, which explains itself appeared in the last nights Atlanta Journal; Your isu r of the 23d instant con tains a letter from the Rev, Sam P. Joi.es wherein he usee the fol lowing language in regard to Hon John W. Maddox . ’’John is absent too often from roll call. I hear and if his cons tituents were to look into that matter together with his want of recorded votes cn impor tant questions since he has been in congress, they would almost unanimously elect him to s'ay a home.” This information wh ch Mr. Jones alleges to have received, be ing so contrary to the conclusion J had drawn from a very close abser vation of Judge Maddox’s conduct, I concluded to apply for reliable information to the Hon. Josepl W. Bailey, of Texas, the cbosei Democratic leader of the house, ] therefore, without the knowledge of Judge Maddox, wrote Mr Bailey and calling his attention to Mr, Jones' language, asked him to write me frankly what had been t e measure of Judge Maddox's attention to his duties, how he stands ; n the bouse and how he is regarded by nis party associates. To this inquiry Mr. Bailey answer ed as follows: “Mr T, Warren •Akin, City: ’’Dear Sir. I have received yours of the 25th instant calling my attention to the criticism the Rev. Sam Jones aga.n-t Hoti. John k W . Maddox, and inquiring .about, Mr. Maddexsstanding in the house land this attention to his public duties. ”If this were question between ( Georgia Democrats I w’ould hesi- ( tate to answer, because it might be c construed as an attempt to intere- s sere in the politics of your state, but inasmuch as it is an attack upon a Democratic congressman by a gentlemen outside of our par- • ty. I feel that I have the right to ■I answer your inquiry. “Judge Maddox en joys 'he un qualified confidence and respect 1 of all his associates in congress, ( and his standing is very high, He ] is a member of an important com- ; mittee which has permission to sit ( during the sessions of the house, , and it therefore sometimes happens . that he is absent when he would I otherwise be present He votes on all important questions, and what is still more to be desired by his constituents he votes right as of ten and wrong as seldom as any member of the house. Very truly yours - I '(Signed) “Joseph W.
