BITTERLY SOOHES WHAT IlE
CALLS "HYBRID MAJORITY"
"Uncle Joe" at Dinner of Illinois Re
publican Club Gives Vent to the
i Wnu of the Defeated--Says Repub
lican Party Has No Majority.
m ' ii nr m m ssr i
I Kaies Utp
Washington. With his eyes slow
ing defiance and voice thundering at
his enemies with all the day's pent up
bitterness. Speaker Cannon made a
vltrollc attack on the "hybrid house
majority" at the annual dinner of
the Illinois Republican association
Saturday night.
His face was worn from the force
of the terrific ussault made upon
him but his voice lacked none of Its
old Jauntlness and resonance. He was
"Uncle Joe" in fighting trim.
A startling statement made by the
power shorn, but defiant speaker, was
that the republicans no longer have
a majority In the senate, -.
'Mv flrtrl hp rrlf.il with 0-reflt o-
lomnlty, "suppose this 150 pounds of
common clay should drop dead to
night, what would the newspapers and
magazines, which make a profession
of lying and slandering do then? My
daughters, grand children, my son
In law, would be sorry. But tne Dai
anee of the world would not have time
to be sorry. There never was a truer
vnpd no 1,1 thnn 'l.t tha Hpitil hurv Its
- u .a - - - 1. - - - a J '
dead.' If that were not true, then
the world would be one vast, house of
mourning.

"1 know DeoDlo who think they
monopolize the wires of the earth up
to the great white throne. They don't
five the majority of us a chance. They
have cure-alls, they think God and
one constitute a majority, forgetting
that Gid alone is a majority and can
do without their help.
"It is uncomfortable sometimes to
IIva In n irnvernmpnf hv thn neonla.
... ...
There will always be some who are
feeble minded, abnormal. Insane, or
to use a shorter and more common
word, are cranks. But we've got to
have them.
"There was a new majority made
today. It consisted of the democrats
and a 15 per cent slough from the re
publican party. They destroyed the
committee on rules. Then what did
they do? A resolution was presented
declaring the office of speaker vacant
Then what did these men who have
been denouncing my personality, these
simon-pure followers of Senator La
Follette do then? Only eight of them
had the courage of their convictions.
The result was that while I was elect
ed by a majority of 26 last March
they refused to turn me out by a ma
jority of 36.
"That was the way this republican
slough started out In Its new alliance.
And the Sunday papers will be out
In thn nmrnlne with stories about the
end of Cannonlsm and czarlsm, and
perhaps a few of them will say wnat
I said about the house being simply
government by majority.
Knys IVopI" Holli-ve Magazines.
"This combination abolished the
committee on rules, which has after
all the power simply to report to the
house, although some seem to think
it Is like the Biblical example of 'let
there be light and there was light.
You In Washington know differently.
But the people in the country appar
ently believe the uplift magazines and
the cowardly members of congress
who wrought such havoc today. I am
thankful 1 belong to the party of Lin
coln and Grant, and Garfield and
Roosevelt and Taft, and whenever any
charge Is made upon it, whether from
the pulpit or from the magazine or
Chautauqua circle I will defend it. I
wou'.d rather keep the republican
faith and fall than to march with men
who would disrupt the republican
party and succeed.
"The country believes we nave a j
majority of 4 4 in the house, whereas
we have none, nor have we a major- I
lty In the senat.-. Hut this news Is
not given to the country by certain
publicists. They suppress it ana dis
tort it and -talk only about Cannon
lsm and the defeat ana rebuke of the
rini todav.
"Some of us pray for the millenlum.
Rin l don't want it to come at any
time unlvss the Almighty reaches
down his finger and changes tne nu
man anmlal"
