UNCLE JOE CANNON says: . “Honesty with the American people I is fundamental, and when things go I wrong—they make them go right.” I 7, 1836, Dr. Cannon was happy when I “little Joe” was born. 11 furthered I hia plans to move to the prairies of I Illinois and rear his family in an on- I vironment where Lincoln was niirtur- J cd in the pioneer spirit of America. 1 Lincoln was the inspiration of 'he I struggling young lawyer. Joe Caiman, ] who located at Danville with drams | of a public career. 1 Serving under every president since Lincoln's time, he lived to place ills band on the shoulder of Prosid-nt Harding and give him the benediction of an old warherse. Uncle Joe maintains the same old mannerism—Jooks at you squarely from under bis eyebrows, with a peculiar twist of the head ami then dives ,-»t you with a new joke or a new proposition. Ills long arm is Hung out wil’.i that familiar gesture Hist meant much during storm delta leg on tb<- floor of tic- 1 lon*-*. Hr wa ; big enough to lie an is‘lie before the American lieople—Canndnism". A personality strong enough to gather around him a following al- • most equal to that of Theodore Roosevelt when he ran f«,r IT -slant of the United States, but Uncle Joe jis first of all a • regular". T’c oldfashioned spirit of loyalitv is glorified iu Joe Cannon's career. R was the same jolly Uncle Jon speaking: •| .tin holding two isiir of etgUtn. Cn May 7th 1 will be eighty-eight year# old.
