in appearance, but when he fastens
himself on an opponent, either OF
! his ambitions or his ideas, it is the
opponent that always loses blood, and
not McCleary.
Tawney reminds one of king bird
not great Or large but pestlferously
active; one who by sheer energy,
courage and force of will can make
the larger birds and beasts hunt their
holes; bird who never knows when
it is whipped, and who crows as loudly
when driven into corner as when he
is cock of the walk.
1t would take too long and weary
the reader too much if | were to tell
of all the prominent men and what
they remind me of, but the subject of
this scotch, "Uncle Joe," always, re-
minded me of a Chester White pig,
and we mean no disrespect to the
present speaker of the American con-
gress in this statement.
The pig, naturally, is the cleanest
animal in the world, and "Uncle Joe"
is one of the cleanest men in public
life. The pig is obstinate, and Mr..
Cannon can't be made to do thing
he don't want to do. The president
and the senate have made this dis
covery. There is no style about pig,
and there is none about "Uncle Joe. -
A pig is always for pig, and Mr..
Cannon is always for Mr.. Cannon.
A pig is honest, and Cannon's name
is synonym for rigid honesty the
the world around. II a pig does not
get what ne wants he squeals little,
grunts little, waits and tries again.
That is Cannon. He set his cap for
the speakership. He was a candidate
the time Mr.. Reed was elected the
first time. He didn't get it and he
didn't expect it. He simply grunted
and bided his time. When Reed, dis
gruntled, retired from the office,
"Uncle Joe'' thought his time had
come, but the Illinois delegation an
swering the demands of the machine,
endorsed Hopkins which resulted in
the election of General Henderson,
Cannon squealed quite loudly but
acquiesced. A pig is always regular
and so is Cannon. When Gen.
Henderson retired, Cannon poked his
nose to the front and won out. A

1t has been a fancy of mine from
earliest childhood-On that has grown
with my growth, and intensified with
my years to compare men to animals.
l never met a man, especially public
man, whose name was on everybOdy's s
lips, but he reminded me of some pro-
totype in the animal kingdom.
President Cleveland always re-
minded me of a bull dog; honest in
intention; fearful of nothing; square
jawed; courageous; always ready to
fasten his teeth on an opponent; just
as liable to set his fangs on the wrong
man or the wrong idea as the right
one, and when he once got his hold
there was no way of getting him loose
unless one pried him loose with a
hand spike.
President Mckinley always made
me think of grey hound; clean OF
limb, clean of thought, and quick of
action; arriving at conclusions by in
stinct quicker than the lightning's s
flash.
Bryan was an eagle soaring in the
highest heavens OF theory; loving the
storm; making as much show in
capturing mouse as he would in
carrying off full grown sheep.
Reed was grizzly bear; absolutely
Indifferent to the rest of the animal
kingdom; conscious of his own
strength; calmly pursuing his own
way; brushing aside all obstacles with
an air of ennui.
Roosevelt is a lion; daring great
things; doing great things; but whose
accomplishments never quite equals
the front he puts up.
Nelson is ground squirrel, as the
Chippewa Indians call him; always
burrowing, burrowing; accomplishing
what he goes after without appearing
on the surface or making any fuss;
digging for results, and always getting
them; mystifying his opponents by
the secrecy of his actions, and always
standing next to men who dig and
men who work.
Clapp is an elk; magnificent; grand;
never doing very much, but doing
what he does do with an air that
makes people think he moves the
world and the powers of the world.
McCleary is a weasel; insignificant

pig is cunning, and Cannon is the
cutest man in public life. Over and
over again we have known him to
head off dangerous proposition by
shrewdness.
During President Harrison's ad-
ministration, the w. c. 7. U. ladies,
in recognition OF the fact that Mrs.
| Harrison refused to serve wine at the
state dinners, presented her with a
magnificent side-board. When the
White House was renovated this side
board was sold at auction, and it was
reported that it was purchased by a
Washington saloon keeper. A shrewd
democrat, thinking to make political
capital, in an impassiened speech,
recited the facts OF presentation, and
then in tragic voice exlaimed: "My
God! What has become of the side
board?'' Mr.. Cannon arose in his
place and said: ''It is reported on
good authority that Dolly Madison
used to dry her wash in the east room
of the White House. My God! What
has become of the clothes line?'
''Uncle Joe" in action is worth
going many miles to see. He starts
in mildly and gently but as he warns
to his speech he pulls up his sleeves,
sheds his cuffs, tears off his collar,
and always winds up covered with
glory and perspiration.
A pig is common and SO is Cannon.
In his home at Danville, Illinois, he
is known as "Uncle Joe,' and when
a mans own neighbors affectionally
term him "uncle" he always possesses
many lovable qualities. The sobriquet
followed him to the national capitol,
and he became "Uncie Joe" to the
nation. Now his fame has increased,
and he is "Uncle Joe' to the world.
The pig is the most useful animal
in all the animal kingdom, and
"Uncle Joe" is the most useful man
in Washington. He has saved the
nation more money, has punctured
more frauds, and in our judgment.
has been and is, without exception,
the most valuable public servant in
the service of the nation. He is of the
Lincoln class-"All Stock and no
Style.'' He is little piggish as far
as he and his constituents are con-
cerned, for he is human, very human,
but outside from that natural attribute
he is as broad minded as the bounda-
! ries of the nation. Nothing but his
age prevents him from being the
successor of President Roosevelt, and
even that may not interfere, for owing
to correct habits he is younger than
many man twenty years his junior.

GREAT MOVEMENT TOBETTER FARMING
]. ]. Hill Offers $1,000 in Cash Prizes This Year
to the Farmers LOT Minnesota and the
Dakotss- The Contest to Add Millions
to Grain Growers Profits.

/ The movement for better farming
throughout the American northwest
is taking on big proportions. James
j. Hill lends his powerful assistance
to it by offering generous prizes of
money for the best titled and best
managed farms in Minnesota, North
Dakota, and South Dakota. The only
requirement is that farmers who COM
pete for these prizes must keep two
classes of live stock in addition to
their crop farming-that is, cattle and
sheep or swine. The judges will visit
the farm and will base their award of
prizes upon the system of rotation OF
crops, character of cultivation, clean
lines of farming, crop yield, and
numbers and quality of the live stock
kept in proportion to the farms area.
EVERY FARMER HAS A CHANCE AT THE
HILL PRIZES.
| The prizes are divided in such a
manner that every farmer has chance
at them. Three prizes are offered in
each congressional district in Mime
sofa and for the eastern and western
halves of each of the Dakotas. The
first prize is $500 in cash; second $3.50;
third $75. This makes a total of $525
in cash for each district, or an aggre-
gate of $685. for this year for farmers
| in the three states named. If the
number OF entries and interest taken
is sufficient, Mr.. Hill will doubtless
duplicate these prizes each year for
four additional years, making total
of some $35, 600 in all.
The prizes will be awarded by two
judges, one of whom shall be Prof.
Thomas Shaw of st. Paul, and the
other shall be chosen within the dis
trict directly by Pres. Hill, or by Prof.
Shaw, with his approval. The Judging
is to be done between June l and
August L, and entries should be made
as early as possible on forms furnished
free on application to Orange Judd
Farmer, Chicago, Ill.
| NO EXPENSE, NO RED TAPE
There are no fees or dues. Every
farmer may compete. The intelligent
farmer on small scale who is rela-
lively poor has as good a chance at
the prizes as richer farmer who
operates on a bigger scale. To win
the prizes does not necessarily involve
any necessary expense, simply that
the farmer shall farm we'll.
| MILLIONS FOR GRAIN GROWERS
A contest in behalf of better seed
and better culture of grains is also
being conducted by Orange Judd
Farmer, with view to adding millions
to the profits for farmers who grow
wheat, corn or oats. 1t offers $500
as cash prize for the best work in
1906, with one acre of wheat; $500 for
| the best work with one acre of corn;
and $500 for the best work with one
acre of oats-not necessarily the largest
yield, but the best practice in every
detail. 1t offers $4,000 in all, and
many other prizes are being con-
| tributed. There is great interest
among farmers in breeding and using
better seed. From the acre of pure
seed grown in 1906 by each contestant,
there should be enough fine seed
available for planting next year to
forever Danish poor seed from every
farm in the land.

A few years ago some of the Sec

wealthy districts of California were in
sage brush. The farmers had no mar

shipped out in carload lots, and those
who could see no future in the indus

the shipments are made in trainloads,
and the demand is greater than ever.
