C1,0 1.6,- iO F11, FO1> SPEAKEA1SRIP Uncle Joe Unudaunted by Longworth's Repudiation.-Will Enter House Caucus. Danville, Ill., Aug. 18.-Despite the declaration of Congressman Long worth that he will not again vote for Joseph G. Cannon of the house of rep resentatives, Mr. Cannon will continue in the race, according to his own statement to the Associated Press this evening. He will go into the caucus as a can didate, no matter how many Repub lican congressmen declare they will oppose his reelection. All he asks is that those who go into the .caucus abide its vote, and he promises to do the same. He does not ask any man to pledge himself to vote for his reelection, if he believes that pledge will work against him in the election this fall. Nor does he want any can didate for the Republican nomination for congress to repudiate his party by failure to enter the caucus. That Mr. Cannon was considerably nettled by the dispatch from Beverly was apparent this afternoon -y,en a copy of it was handed him. Mr. Can non is usually ready to grant or re fuse an interview without a moment's hesitation. But today he read and " read the Longworth stati.:mcnt, then dictated and redictated a half dozen statements before he got one which finally suited him. Thinks Taft His Enemy. There is no doubt that Mr. Cannon believed the Longworth statement was inspired by President Taft. He did not say so in so many svords but he intimated as much when he said: "It is time enough to answer the president of the United States if he has any such statement to make touching on the Republicanism of the speaker of the house of representa tives when he makes that statement under his own hand. I will not fight windmills filled by breezes blown from the lungs of personal enemies of cow ards." Following the reply made to Long worth early in the afternoon, Mr. Can non supplemented it with the fol'ow ing dictated this evening: "The legislation enacted and the records made by the Republican party during the eight years I have been speaker speaks for itself. I have con tributed what I could toward the en actment of that legislation. I have cooperated 'with the Republican ma jority irn congress in the effort to put on the statute books the policies of the party and I have no apology to make for the part I have taken in the legislative councils of the nation. To Fight For Party. "In the present campaign, so far as I am concerned, I shall do what I can to bring about the election of a Republican house of-representatives in the Sixty-first congress and without a Republican majority in the next house there will be no Republican speaker. "In the event of my reelection as a member of the house I shall attend and abide by the action of the Republi can caucus and from his statement Mr. Longworth will do the same as every Republican member of the house. Therefore I have no quarrel with Rep resentative Longworth as to who shall be speaker of the next house of rep resentatives and there is no room for disagreement touching this matter be tween Representative Longworth and myself. "If any Nepublican candidate for congress feels that his position as a candidate on the Republican ticket would be strengthened by pledging that he will not support me in the Re publican caucus I have no ob.iection to his making the pledge." The speaker reiterated his intention to attend the caucus if reelected. Longworth Opposes Cannon. Beverly, Mass., Aug. 18.-Reflecting the views of the administration, it is general ly .believed, Nicholas Long worth of Ohio today gave out a state ment in which he says he will never support Speaker Cannon again and: that he does not believe Mr. Cannon ever can be reelected. This is re garded as the actual beginning of the real fight on Mr. Cannon. It had been regarded as a significant fact that Mr. Longworth had been called into all of the recent conferenc es of a political character held by President Taft. Mr. Longworth was present yesterday afternoon when the president and vice president talked together. It was reported then that a statement adverse to Mr. Cannon was being prepared in quarters close to the administration, and it was also in timated that Mr. Sherman, who like Mr. Longworth, has always been a supporter of Mr. Cannon, has become: reconcied to the fact tha: Mr. Cannon must go. There may be further significance in the fact that Representative Long worth is going to Oyster Bay on Sat urday to spend several days with Col. Roosevrat. The fact that he was esn Sat the intcrview between - and Mr. Sherman and that he is go ing to Oyster Bay is taken here to mean that a close understanding be tween Beverly and Oyster Bay as to recent- events in New York is to be reached. IN ITS OWN NEW HOME. Lutheran Visitor Has Modern Publi cation Plan.--Outfit Is Complete in Every Detail. Columbia, August 20.-With build ings a,id outfit representing a valuation of $100,000, the Lutheran board of pub lication this week is now doing all its printing at home. The Lutheran Vis itor was run off in the handsome new printing office, the type was set by a Linotype, owned by the company, and the paper was mailed from the build ing. The printing office has just been occupied. The main or publication building, which contains the editorial rooms, consists of three stories. It is modern in every particular. The first floor is rented out for store purposes, the hall on the second floor, together with of fice rooms, is likewise rented. and the third floor is occupied by a business college. The editorial rooms occupy the left hand side of the second floor. This building has been occupied since January 1, 1907. The printing office is the latest building. It is 90x30 feet, is very tall for a one-story building, and has num erous windows to give it light and ventilation. Besides a large cylinder press, the office contains a Mergen thaler typesetting machine, a folder, two job presses and other machinery, together with a Idt of type. It is a complete printing office. Dr. W. H. Greever is editor and Mr. Wm. P. Houseal is associate editor. These two gentlemen make the Vistior the pride of the Lutherans in the South. Referring to the new building the Visitor says editorially: "Hallelujah." "Hallelujah is a good word with which to begin this first paragraph of the first issue of the Lutheran Church Visitor from its own press. That word means, 'Praise be to God.' It has been by His help that we have come to this new point in the development of this great institution of the church, and we would give to Him praise and thanks. The printing plant of the Lutheran board of publication of the United Synod of the Evangelical Luth-' eran Church in the South is now in full operation. It is up-to-date in all par ticulars,; and, not considering size, competent and unbiased men who travel all over our territory tell us that there is no better in the South. The opening of this department, which gives the greatest promise of produc Ing a revenue, inspires us with hope. tt was a far-reaching and far-.sighted service which the friends of this cause performed when they provided suffi cient funds to cover the entire cost of this printing plant. It is true that not all of the subscriptions for this pur pose have been collected, but the un collected ones are all good and the, the United Synod has not, in all of its history, received a greater gift than this. We would rejoice in the realiza tion of the hope that the Sunday schools of th,United Synod would pay for the erection of the new building. "Our new building is 90 feet long, 30 feet wide and one story high. It is built on regular factory specifications and is substantial, well lighted and well ventilated. It was built for the future as well as the present." CANDIDATES USE FISTS. Bodges and Ellerbe Fight in Lake City Mfeeting.-Several Blows Passed. Lake City, Aug. 20.-Two of the can-! didates for Congress, Hodges and El lerbe, engaged in a fist fight at the nieeting held here today and sevaral blows passed before the contestants Were separated. Ellerbe used the word liar, a'd Mr. Hodges resented it by landing a stiff blow on the face. El Ierbc was game and they went at it nip and tuck until ~separated by by standers. Ellerbe closed his speech by taking from his pocket a slip of paper and reading therefrom the following: "Whoever says that I was the author of or wrote or dictated or had print-. ed the circular against Mr. Hodges re ferred to in his speech is an infamous liar." Blow in the Face. As he commenced to read Hodges came out from the crowd and stood at his left side, paying close attention, and when Ellerbe had finished asked him if he meant to say that he. Hodges, was a liar. Whereupon El lerbe repeated his statement and Hodges promptly struckc him a blow in the face. EPerbe went right at him and seu ral blows had been passed, before they could be parted amid shouts of "Hurrah for Ellerhe! H{ur rah for Hodges!" idilled tbixt Rogt:rs, senawr froi Marlboro, had stated that he was th author of and had printed the pape against Hodges and had assumed al responsibility therefor, and that h Ellerbe, had only circulated about 5 copies of this circular in his district.
