UNCLE JOE MAY BE DEFEATED BY
 MINISTER
Especial from United Presso

Danville, Ills. Sept. 14.-should .sUnc1e Joe' Cannon be defeated for nomination to Congress it will be be- cause of a whiskey advertisement and not because there is any real insur- gency in Jocannon Territory. As 8 matter of fact, the people in Uncle Joe's district know nothing of the in surgency wave which is sweeping over the land. They have been Can nonized for 36 years and like it, and today they have no other idea than to re-nominate the Speaker.
 But Cannon has opposition-Dr- Henry B. Downs, a Methodist minis ter. The latter was Q, good stand batter until he saw in a Cannon parade two years ago a banner bear ing the strange 0evice-"Drink Jo cannon Whiskey''-then he switched. Today he was the most picturesque campaigner for Uncle Joe's seat. His platform is anti-saloon but his candi- dacy is not taken seriously.
 The only species of insurgency to be found in this district comes from those who have been dropped in years passed when Uncle Joe was dealing out jobs.
 Uncle Joe will probably be renomi- mated tomorrow. Judge R. E. Kim brough, a Democrat, is threatening to come out as an independent candi- date against Cannon.
