Washington, Dec. 2T.-Anecdotes. in
cidents and pithy quotations. which
have fiourished in the press of the
United States. since the death of the
late Thomas F. Reed, furnish a nota-
BILE commentary on the way public
men are taken here in the capital of
the nation. They originated very large
ly with the large and able corps of
Washington correspondents, than
whom there is probably no brighter
or more capable body of newspaper
writer's in the world. The recent pro-
fusion of these Stories as they are
termed by the profession, emphasizes
the paucity of numbers in statesmen.
who are of sufficient picturesqueness
or ability to warrant so much expendi-
ture of ink and paper, telegraph tolls,
and salaries.
But with the passing of Mr.. Reed,
there has come into prominence an
other great character, whose career is
almost equally full of anecdote and in
cdent, although none would compare
Uncle Joe" Cannon of Illinois. the
next Speaker. in greatness with the
departed giant from Maine. The speak
ership of the House was always illum-
ined by many newspaper Incidents
while Mr. Reed welded the gavel. A
story or gossipy anecdote has been
a rare exception regarding Speaker
Henderson, however, warm be the af-
Ntal, la To- SC va
garded in the House. OF course, Meth
er his language in conversation or in
formal speech scintillated with wit and
brilliancy, as did Mr.. Reeds. and he
did not and does not now enjoy the
same relations with the correspond
ents as did Mr.. Reed. But "Uncle Joe"
Cannon. who has had no more pic
turesque and remarkable career than
Cen. Henderson. is almost daily the
subject of some new STORY" What he
says and what he does is enveloDed
with sufficient human interest to cause
him to be much observed. That has
been the case for years but, naturally,
more so now. when he has come into
the center of the congressional stage.
The truly instructive and interesting
personalities have noticeably declined In
the House of Representatives during
the long Republican regime there, al
though that is not to be attributed to
any partisan causes. Anecdotes of the
late Representative Dingley were ca
gerly seized upon by the press, in his
day, for Mr.. Dingley was a man of
marked ability. His successor, Repre-
sentative Charles f. Littlefield, Of
Rockland, who has been a commanding
personality and, possibly next to Mr.
Cannon, the subject of more anecdotes
than any other member of the House.
Neither Mr.. Dingley nor Mr.. Littlefield
have been noted as humorists, as have
both Mr.. Cannon and Mr.. Reed. The
older Democrats. like the late Charles
F. Crisp, of Georgia, eX-Speaker, Alex
ander M. Dockery, now governor of
Missouri. and Benton McMillin, now
governor of Tennessee, carried them
selves with sufficient force and acumen
in the House to be much in the public
eye and to merit what is probably the
most difficult of all compliments for
statesmen-frequent mention in ance-
dote and political gossip.
None of these men have been racon-
tours, in the strict sense of that word,
except Uncle Joe" Cannon, and he
relates anecdotes chiefly in the way
of "reminiscences to illuminate his
