OUR JIM GRIGGS.
What Macon Paper Has to Say of the
Popular Congressman.

Popular Congressman.
The Macon Sunday Tribune has been
taking look at the political situation in
the congressional districts of Georgia,
and has reached the conclusion that near
ly all The eleven gentlemen who have at
last been permitted by Speaker Reed TO
leave Washington have need to repair
their fences. OF the second district the
Tribune Says:
Judge Jim Griggs, of the second, may
be spared fight next year, but it's dol
lars to dough-nuts that he is not banking
on any such good luck. The woods of
Thomas, Dougherty and Decatur are
teeming with great men who are perfect
ly certain that when it comes to serving
the untry at $1,000 per year they can
give the jovial Dawsonite cards and
spades and beat him double. Which
one of them will don the mits is vet be-
mind the veil. WHO ever it may be is
safe to quickly realize that Judge Griggs
is one of the "most deceivingist" public
men in all Georgia. To see his broad,
ruddy visage, baaming with good nature
and the milk of human kindness bub-
bling out at every pore as he convulses
crowd with one of his inimitable stories
Of life in the Pataula circuit, the i'm
preston is justified that he wouldn't
know smart politics if he met it on the
piney woods road, while he would rather
suffer defeat than inflict pain on an oppo-
nent.
AS matter of fact he is not that kind
of coon skin at all. The truth of the
matter is that when an opponent catches
Jim Griggs apparently missing a point
in the game unless he watches mighty
close he'll find one of his forepaws in
steel-trap big enough to hold bear. AS
for hitting the other fellow, FitzsimmOns
is a green kindergarten. Judge Grigcs
nay think he'd rather not have opposi-
ton but he really deceives himself, for
be is a slave t. duty, and one of his du-
ties is to demonstrate to gentlemen who
think they know it all in politics that
their education is not quite complete.
