In that long, dried hand of J Cannon reposes the destinies, the well being and the ill faring of hundreds of thousands of American citizens, and Joe Can non is a traitor to the people of his country Serenely contemptuous, Cannon has flouted the wishes of President Roosevelt and the nation the pages of history, has ruled his land with the utter disre gard for right and justice that has been manifested by Joe Cannon every day in the chair of the house of representatives Republicans and democrats alike, have clamored in vain for legislation, for a chance to be recognized, and the Olympian Cannon with a sneer has waved them aside. No legislation, that does not bear the “O. K.” of the Vested Interests, can secure recognition from this grizzled tyrant from Danville. Joe Cannon is not only a traitor to the people at large, bat to the republican party. Legislation urged by the presi dent, backed by the republican and democratic members of congress, has been spurned. Church and labor leaders have appealed to Cannon, only to be dubbed “liars,” “pessimists and “asses.” With that well-worn gavel, the speaker pounded to death every bill that could im any way help the people at the expense of the Interests Why then should Cannon be re-elected to congress? Why? Simply for no other reason than that the Interests must have him there. In his little hide-bound district about Danville the Cannon family is supreme brother, with Cannon himself as a silent partner, are the rul of the countryside. Everybody who expects to do business profitably with any of the Cannon banks, must give his heart and soul to the success of Joe Cannon's campaign. And back of Cannon's personal and fraternal support, there is the big,| No despot, excoriated in has Cannon's 1g bankers “YHE STAR—WEDN ° THE LAST STRAW-F.R.
