to Governor General Smith, saying it
had been decided not to grant the

leave of absence during the stay of

the presence of cholera in Manila and
the fact that during the progress of
the epidemic many cases have been
concealed. The position of the Admir-
al is bitterly resented. A house to

on his men, and hundreds of them fill

to the Atlantic Fleet and organizing
an elaborate reception to the Pacific
Fleet for the purpose of drawing at
tantion to the anomaly of one admir-
al refusing leave to his men and ano-
t4er granting it without restrictions.

Special to The Daily Record.


Washington, d. c., November 21.-
Despite a Republican majority of
forty-seven in the House of Repre-
sentatives, Joseph G. Cannon of Illi-
nois may not be Speaker of the 61st
Congress. Such is the opinion of a
large number of the Republican mem
bers who have arrived in town, and
not a day goes by but some new ar
rival brings report of strong anti-Can-
non sentiment in his district. This
sentiment is reflected by Republican
newspapers throughout the country.
Cannon is declared to be the Republi-
can "OId Man of the Sea- the one
great obstacle to a progressive poll
cy, and demand is made that he be
displaced.
Before the election it usually was
estimated that if the Republican ma
jority in the next House was above
thirty Cannon could not be defeated
for Speaker. But sentiment against
Cannon seems to be stronger at least
is given stronger expression, since
the election than before. Many Re-
publican newspapers which enthusias-
tically supported Taft are now de-
manding that Cannon be defeated,
taking the ground that his continu-
ance as Speaker would make it i'm
possible for Taft to redeem the
pledges he made the country.
1t had been expected there would
be a great deal of difficulty getting
against Cannon members fearing that
if they opposed Cannon and he won
out in spite of the opposition they
would be made to suffer. Such mem
bers are now being told that firm
stand against Cannon and willing
non-success would make them strong
er with their constituents than any
number of postoffice or river or har-
bor appropriations. Take your stand
in the open. they are urged, and if in
punishment you have to return to
your people empty-handed, you will
be a hero. Then, continuing, the argu-
ment runs this wise: If you support
Cannon and still fail to get that post
Office your district expects. you won't
have a leg to stand on when you
come up for reelection. If you can
tell your people that failure to get
the postoffice was your punishment
for asserting your manhood, you will
have a walk-over at the election two
years from now.
Members of Congress are normal
human beings who like their jobs.
How to keep his job. therefore, is the
first consideration with each. The Can
non regime has no devoted following
outside of the limited inner circle. II
a majority of the Republican mem
bers of the House were convinced
their own fortunes would be best
