Extract from the Speech
Made by Representa-
tive Lindsay of Daw-
son County.

| also take the view that upon the
election that is now before this
body, the Republican members
should occupy a neutral ground and
the men who will endeavor to
swerve them from that ground are
unworthy Of the respect or conf
dence Of the people Of this grea'
commonwealth. They will be
held to a strict accountability by
their constituents for their actions in
this body, and whatever may be the
verdict in the end, If they have
allowed themselves to be swerved a
hairs breadth from their line Of duty
as they are passing through the
fiery ordeals Of this contest they will
be branded as dishonored and will be
political outcasts as we'll as social
outcasts in the future.
