TRUCK PRICE BADLY
EXAGGERATED

Great good results from the use of
printers ink and judicious publicity, but
on occasion the thing gets into the re
verse and accomplishes something quite
different from what was intended.

transposing figures is we'll known and
apparently no precaution can entirely
overcome 1T. In Saturdays issue this
particular imp of error was upon the

$f,234.5O, which is something quite diff.
ferent
The fistake occurred in the ADVERTISE
ment of w. Il. Alexander in which he
called attention to the great Samson
demonstration to be held on MAY 13

as an extraordinary value and it caused

authority, and Cannon faced a sweet
battle.
AT that time, it seems, republicans
and democrats alike in the house were
ready to rap 'ST. r. whenever they
got chance, so they prepared to
slaughter Cannon and his bill and
teach the extravagent Roosevelt a
lesson.
Uncle Joe brought his bill ON the
floor and the fireworks started. He
sat meekly and patiently through two
hours Of lambasting. Finally, Repre-
sentative John. w. Gaines, of Tenne
see, the "wit' of the democratic side,
arose to deal Cannon Is bill the death
blow.
He introduced q resolution demand

board is now in a saloon on Pennsyl-

Gaines had made deep impression
on the house and it looked bad for
"Uncle Joe.'
However, he was equal to the occa-
sion. Getting up leisurely, hitching his
trousers and rolling up his coat sleeves
in mock seriousness, Cannon remarked
dryly that it was "quite proper that
congress should zealously safeguard all
the ancient White House furniture, -
and added:
| History tells us that, century 20,
good Abigail Adams (wifc of John
Adams) was wont to do her washing
and hang it in the cast room of the
White House to dry. Mr.. Speaker
where is that clothes line today?"

and the opposition were silenced and

This is the first Of a series Of anec-

of nearly 46 years in public life. He
is now So and will retire from the
House next March after serving longer

As a quick, rough and ready debater,
"Uncle Joe'' has had few equals in
Congress as is shown by the following
story.
BY LAURENCE M. BENEDICT
Omitted Press Staff Correspondent
WASHINGTON, May S.-Probably
Congress was more feared in debate
than "Uncle Joe" Cannon. Few ever
got the best of him.
Cannon, although an exceptionally
forceful speaker and brilliant in pre-
senting logical argument, preferred
generally to batter down opponents on
the floor by heaping them with ridi'
cule.
The best argument in the world is nc
good to the other fellow if you can
get the laugh on him, Cannon believed
and the theory worked out for him
hundreds of times.
"A good example of how Uncle Joe .
could turn the tables on an adversary
in debate is shown in the following
story, vouched for by the Congression
al Record.
When Theodore Roosevelt became
president the first time, he had such ;
large family that he needed the entire
