without "A dissenting vote. The gift was
rendered by the Lincoln Farm Associ-
alton, which has obtained possession
OF the property aud housed in "A marble
building the cabin In which Lincoln was
born.
The bill was made the occasion for a
speech by Uncle Joe Cannon. the only
member Of the House who knew Lincoln.
and the House interrupted its speeding
up' tactics TO listen to the veteran eN-
Speaker. Mr. Cannon told OF various ill.,
oidents in Lincoln's career and drew
lherefrom morals applicable TO the pol!t!-
cal situation to-day.
You know" he said. nobody re-
sarded Lincoln AZ a hero during the
great contest between the North and
the South. Heroes are great fellows.
Sometimes the people regard them as
heroes and sometimes they proclaim
themselves. Let me say that this does
not apply to any one party"
