cluttering up the statute books
with legislative fads, fancies and
freaks. The rule by which he
judges a bill is: "Is is unjust, un

these three he calls it all three
and starts a fight against it that
is easily recognizable as a real
right.

-i-there has been scarcely a limit
to his endeavor. His activity has
made him a number of enemies,
as may well! be expected, for no
one can try to do all he has tried
to do in a well-behaved Willam

stirring- up considerable feeling
His friends are more numerous
than his enemies, however, as the
primary election returns attest.
Before the primaries, all the dope-
sters said, "Lee is a joke; he
won't get (anywhere; he will be at
the bottom of the ticket " but
he got the nomination. Before
the' election the Bame dopesters
said: "Lee is so weak he will be
beaten by a democrat; the people
all over the county know him so
well they will, vote for anyone
else." But Lee was elected and
here, he is. Anyone who figures
that just because he has done
more for his home community and
county than he has been able to
do for himself, he will not be able
to make much of an impression
in the legislature, will find him
self underestimating an exceed
ingly capable man. j
