The Democratic advocate. [volume] (Westminster, Md.) 1865-1972, 1907-09-27
THE DEMOCRATIC CANDIDATES
For State Senator.

johnnie E. Beasman is one of the best
known public men in the county. For nearly
a quarter of century he has, at intervals.
represented Carroll in the General Assembly,
first, for several sessions as member of the
House of Delegates, and for the last four SEES
sions as State Senate.
Mr. Beasmans record is without flaw.
At Annapolis he is known as the watchdog of
the Treasury, and his objections to lavish APP
propriations have saved the State large sums
of money every year. He has served we'll
not ouly the people of the county but the
whole State, and later on the ADVOCATE will
have more to say as TO course at Annapohs,
where he has acted in such manner as to be-
come one of the most prominent and popular
men in Maryland.
For the House of Delegates.
Jacob A. Frederick was member OF the
last House of Delegates, where he was known
as careful and conscientious representative
of his county. He is farmer and stock
raiser, and is largely interested in the Line,
boro canning establishment. he Is good
business man, a citizen of high character and
his honesty and integrity are above question.
He was popular in Annapolis and exerted
quiet but forcefu influence on all measures
of importance. He looked carefully after all
local measures of interest to his county, and
with the experience gained two years ago he
will probably be one of the leading members
of the next session.
R. Lee Myers is one of the leading farmers
and business men of Lnwood, where his
popularity is not exceled by any of his friends
and neighbors. He was a member of the last
House, and was one of the most popular men
there. He was attentive to the business OF
the session, was prompt in his attendance on
committee meetings, and looked carefully
after the interests of the county and State.
The experience gained then will be of great
value to him next winter, for the work of the
session largely depends on the members who
have been there before.
