Report of Legislative Voters League

Speakers unfairness that would be laws had
their bills had fair chance
In this report on Speaker Mckinley the Legisa-
tive Voters League says in general defense OF the
Speakers course: "Mr, Mckinley insists that while
he made mistakes he did the best he could with the
material Illinois sent to Springfield as legislators"
1t not far from unanimous the part of those who
know that while Mr. Mckinley started out with a
fair name he developed into of the weakest and
unreliable members of the last legislature. The
L. V L. also says: Gle declares that the Residence
District option proposition was written into the
pledge after he signed and that its defeat due
the datory tactics of the dry house leaders" 1t
really shows weakness to quote without condemna-
ton defense like that The members Of the 1egisa-
tive Voters League do not think for one minute that
such defense is They know that the dry house
leaders were unusually active and considering the
fair and trying methods of the Speaker, they deserve
great commentator for their aggressive work. They
also know that county option and the other temper
ance measures advocated by the Anti-Saloon League
included in Mr. McKinley's promise for vote
and fair hearing. He does not deny that he prom
sed to vote for county option, and yet his record
shows that only did he vote for the but
that he responsible for hinderng the vote the
blind tiger bill when there were votes enough in the
house pass it after had passed the They
know also that it was by his perfdy that the Resi-
dence District bill was killed in the house after hav-
ing passed both house and senate by majority vote
in each branch and only needed roll call minor
amendment to insure the passage of said bill.
These UNDISPUTED facts should be made

advertise his weak defense given at time when

Kinley gave the gave to John Mclaughlin at fire.

state that "this lack of judgment least" 1t
than that, it becoming partner to
Mclaughlin in his effort to put through with strong
hand corrupt and vicious legislation.
Mr.. Mckinley while receiving some very just
criticism in the report certainly got off easy consider
ing the very base service he gave
If member of the assembly do the
disputed facts show that Speaker Mckinley did in the

it increases the temptation for corruption

Legislative Voters League is not temperance or
ganizaton 1t is designed to give to the public
the general character of the legislative record OF the
members of the assembly without regard to how they
vote on the saloon question. legislator may vote
with the United Societies against the Anti-Saloon
League and still receive the hearty OK OF the leg1s-
ative voters League.
1t is no mere coincident, however, that nearly all
of the men who voted for anti-saloon measures have
good records as reported by the Legislative Voters
League concrete example is in the records OF
those who voted for the Residence District bill This
is one of the eleven bills of general interest upon
which the voting records made up. by an exam
nation of this report it will be seen that OF the sew
enty-seven members in the house who voted tor the
Residence District bill only three of these seventy
seven are criticized by the L. V. L., and these three
are men who while voting for this dry measure were
opposed to the county option bill and were not sup

Anti-Saloon Means Good Government
This record proves conclusivey that the best
way to save legislative halls from corruption IS
to get rid of the influence of the liquor traffic. The
United Societies, an organization whose big business
it is to take of the liquor interests OF the state
must be robbed of their power and the relns OF gov
eminent be given back to the people Of the state OF
Illinois if our legislative halls are going to be what
thew ought to be. When our friends go out and hight

program in nearly every case they are hght1ng tor

lines This adds materially the importance OF each

few exceptions can be taken to the general re-

Some parts of the report may however, be mlsunder-

brief but all in all the purpose OF the organization and
the work of the same is to be commended How
ever. the report on Speaker Mckinley, in the judg-

shows weakness and fails to with the approval
of those who are acquainted with the last session OF
the legislature. Legislative Voters League should
not hesitate to state UNDISPUTED FACTS and
should be fearless enough to give these bodily. The
general impression of this report however IS, as one
expressed it in an interview, that the report Speak

Hoods Sarsaparilla, the old-time

the blood, and through the blood on
the liver, kidneys and skin, which ie

NATIONAL BANKS

Ter Williams estimates that about
500 million dollars in national
banks throughout the United States
is available for farm mortgage
loans, under the provision OF the
federal reserve act making 1t pos
sible for national banking associa-
lions to lend money on improved

Scores of inquiries concerning the
nroyision reach the treasury de-
partment daily and there does not
seem to be a general understanding
that the farm loan clause of the
act is now in force and makes II
possible for national banks to make
farm loans before the formal or
