Wattecson's Tribute to Uacle Joe
Cannon.

V1aUUUWs
In an editorial on the "Rift in the
Clouds" in the Louisville Courier.
Journal, Col. Henry Watterson says:
1.-THE democrats have been burn
ing black smoke so long that they
are apt to overestimate any good
fortune that may come to them. The
triumph in the lower house of con-
gress, which they owe to the insurg.
ent republicans, starts the braves to
shouting, "Wake, snakes, days a.
breakin'," when it was perhaps fit
ter for them to murmur, Small fav.
ors thankfully received It is a
long way from the overthrow OF
Cannon, who in the course of ma.
ture had not long to stay, and the
election of democratic president
in 1912. Very many things are liza.
bic to happen between now and
then. The victory, indeed, may
prove more seeming than real.
"In the meantime the Courier.
Journal stands up on it's hind legs
and says in it's artless way: Uncle
Joe, you has our sympathy; they
done you dirt-they sure did. Stand
up, you magnificent old reprobate,
whilst we salute you and, amidst
the cowardly clamor and the ribald
jeers, we render you homage of a
lifelong foeman.'
"You fit a good fight. You held
out long and we'll. Except that you
are an old man, they would not have
dared-but, even at that, you made
them play ball. Now they want to
unload on you the sins of the Re-
publican party, to find their expia-
ton in your slaughter: to make that
a virtue in Roosevelt and Taft which
they find crime in you; in short,
to personalize their own system as
Cannonism, and having cast out
Cannonism, to reappear as doves,
as stainless as snowflakes-you,
after your 80 years of service, to pay
the forfeit, they to get the reward.
"Ah, Joseph, Joseph-dear old
Uncle Joe!-it is true enough that
parties, like Republicans, are un-
grateful. At least you told them
no lies. You stood to your guns,
which, until there ca a fire in the
rear. were their guns. The young
may die. The old must. Your time
has come, Uncle Joe. Better 40
down with the colors flying than
peter out in long draw agony OF
hope and tears.
I'VE rejoice that the system with
which you were allied no more than
others who went before::you-which
was no more Cannonism, than Reed
ism, or Girls pism, or Carlisleism, or
Blaineism, for 1t was practiced and
illustrated more or less by every
speaker of the house-has gone
down with you, for it was a bad old
system, quite eliminating the spiri,
of representative government. The
proposed change will prove good
for the country and not i'll for the
house. 1t will lead to other reforms
until high parliamentary methods
prevail in congress. Meanwhile, as
to you Uncle Joe, here's How
I'VE look towards you, Joe. There
shall still be cakes and ale. Toiu
us, old enemy, join us in singing
that good old song. Never Say Die
Till the Sea Goes Dry, Well Get
Over Double Trouble in the Sweet
