Beezley's Record.

In response to our inquiry as to Mr..
Beezley's legislative record, the edit
of of the Mercury takes more than a
column of his valuable space to ans
wer. Judging from what he said, we
we would conclude that he Edwards
county representative was the whole
push. Briefly stated, Mr.. Beezley was
member of several committees; he
was called tn preside when the house
was "sitting in committee of the
whole" We are informed that he was
lone Of the leaders, ''He was free
from scandal" etc. In concluding the
editor explains why Mr.. Beezley in
troduced the sand-hills road bill for
Lincoln township. just why the ed
itor thinks an explanation, almost
amounting to an apology, should be
made in this connection we are unable
to understand, as according to our
ideas this is Mr.. Beezley's entire re-
cord for bills passed and it was all
right. His constituents asked him to
do this and it was plain duty.
''The memqer from Edwards county
was not mere puppet, voting as he
was told; talking doll who squaked
aye or no when his party leaders
punched him. From which we con-
clude that when the interest of his
constituents was at stake, he boldly
orr G.>1 h4 - I,
party.
The whole sum and substance of this
record is that MIR. Beezley got one
local bill through, and that is his sole
achievement as representative.
Now a member of the legislature can
do, for the benefit of his own people,
more by voting right on matters that
interest them, than he can as q "sleep-
ing angel" on committees.
The question of how our representa-
ii We voted will not be before us Off
cially for 80 ne time.
There wes one bill before the legis-
lature in which our people were vitaly
interested. This bill was for the pur-
pose of compelling oleomargerine to
sail under it's own colors and cease to
masquerade as butter. Ask our rep
reseptative how he voted ON the OleO.
bill-we are informed he voted against
it. This was the one bill before the
legisl ature that was fought with mon
ey ''ad libitum." Cy Leland, the king
OF the stock yards and packing house
lobby organized the tight on this bill
and defeated it. The methods employ
ed to defeat this bill made even hard
ened republican sinners blush. But
the corporations got what they went
after and left the people holding the
sack.
Now if our representative voted for
the packing house product to be allow
ed to masquerade in the markets as
butter, thus coming in competition
with the dairy interests of our county
who did he represent?
Truly as the editor of the Mercury
says sit seems almost absurd in the
light of the above facts to compare
Mr.. Beezley with his predecessor in
legislative usefulness Or credit to his
county," Mr.. Malin voted in the in
terest of his constituency every time.
