UNCLE JOE AND THE GOLDEN AGE.
Tp HIS is, a liell of a country," opines ex-Congressman Joe Ciin
A lion us lie philosophically puffs on a cheroot anil surveys the
world from his front porch lit Danville, Illinois.
Uncle Joe should know. lie has seen most of it and lived as an
active participant in its golden age. When l'nclc Joe first went to
empress, Grant was president. The population of the United States.
:iow 119,000,000 was then less than 40,000,000. Within that half
century the Illinois congressman has seen the rise and decline and
passing of ten presidents Grant. Hayes, Garfield, Arthur, Cleveland,
Harrison, McKinley, Roosevelt, Taft and Wilson.
"A hell of a country," means in the Cannon vernacular, a hell of
a fine country. Jtut I'nele Joe has never dealt in rollyanna superla
tives. Now at t ho sunset of a husy life, he refuses to wax either pes
himistic or sentimental.
Such a robust forward-looking view is characteristic of the man
and his age. l'nclc Joe is through. The golden ago in which he was
such a typical and picturc.sn.ue figure has passed. Peering into a f u- lost ought to startle us, yet

rage and a "hard bofrcd" disposition
are given as motives. A cousin of
Sparrow's says he was fooling around
