.ILLIN0ISANS SAD

Their Idol Fails to Appear
at Banquet.

1t was a disappointed party of Illi-
noisans who gathered in the Riggs House
last night. Uncle joe Cannon, their
hero and idol failed to appear. casting a
gloom over the members of the Illinois
society. Uncle Joe was down for a
long and ranting speech, the tenor of
which was a matter of speculation. New
ertheIess. he should have been there, and
men and women belonging to the asso-
citation wore glum faces during the even
ings entertainment.
Secretary of the Treasury Franklin
MacVeaGh was coming, but some matter
of business interfered Rounding out a
programme of speeches from distin-
guished men, Senator Shelby NJ Cullon
was to have been present. but he had
important business on hand which pre-
vented him from being present at this
most distinguished meeting"
So it went. The Illinoisans were disap-
pointed. They were not discouraged

Barrett supplied the audience with plenty
Not a bit dismayed by the intelligence
and prominence of his hearers, Mr.. Bar
rctt dug into a subject dear to the hearts
of all present. In an impassioned speech
he declared that Illinois was the most
wonderful State, barring none, in the
whole universe. He said that with the
opening of the Panama Canal and the
deepening of the Mississippi River the
commercial aspects of Illinois would in
crease 900 per cent. and it would be the
greatest area in the world.
In plain words, the Illinois State AS
sociation was decked with laurels Rep
