break OF the war the Quakers seldom failed
TO renew their testimony against slavery.
From that section an immense emigration
went to the vicinity of Richmond, Ind, and
later 20 Hendricks county and t. Parke. the
new county Of the Wabash, which now con-
tains about GOO Quaker voters. Reared
amid such surroundings and educated by
such a class OF people, il IS plain that Mr.
Cannon was both by Inheritance and conyic-
ton an ardent anti-sla7ery man.
Just before the war he was elected states
attorney in Illinois and served in that posi-
ton until December. 1868. After four years
devoted 70 the practice OF law he was chosen
in 1872 70 the Forty-third congress, and has
been reelected succesSi vely 70 each succeed
ing congress, sometimes By very large major
titles, having thus been fifteen years IL con-
tinuous congressional service, which, with
his marked ability as a parliamentarian,

These Three American Citizens
One Of the coming men of the Republican
party, and now much spoken Of for speaker
OF the Fifty first congress. is the Hon.
Joseph G. Cannon, of the Fifteenth Illinois
district, embracing the counties of Cham
paign, Coles, Douglas, Edgar and Yer
million There IS not politician in the
United States who has had a more regular
and normal growth than this now prominent
member Of the Illinois delegation He was
born Nav Z, 1896, near the historic battle
field Of Guilford Court House, in Guilford
county, y c., and was reared and educated
among the Quakers AT an early age, how
ever. ne was taken thence by his parents to
Parks county, Ind, where his father, Dr.
Cannon, was long and IavOrably known He
received large part Of his early education
al the common schools Of the county, and a
somewhat advanced course at Bloomingdale,
8 few miles from his fathers residence
While Joseph was still a lad his father, re-
turning late one night from visit 20 a
patient, za5 drowned in what was popularity
called a ''sinkhole7 in Sugar creek. or Rocky
river, and the boy, thrown upon his own re-
maze MS own way N III 2.
Removing % Vermili0n county, Ills, he
studied law, located at Danvile, took 70
politics naturally and became a very ardent
Republican when that party was formed, as
his education had made him a strong op-
ponent Of slavery. Indeed, it may be said
parenthetically that in every part OF the
western states the middle and higher class Of
emigrants from tie old slave states, and es-
pecially the Quakers from North Carolina,
were the most ardent anti-slavery men AS
was said by one OF their number in Indiana,
they were present when the Republican
party was born, assisted in forming it and
were ready for il long before It came
