" We are all James Steerforths in that regard. J. B. McCullough, long-time editor of the St. Louis Globe-Democrat, once said that he had often thought that had 37 Proceedings in the House of Representatives there been present a man who could see but could not hear and one who could hear but could not see when Roscoe Coupling delivered his superb speech, nominating Gen. Grant in the famous Chicago convention of 1880, he believed that the deaf man who could see would have derived as much pleasure... from Conkling's performance as the blind man who could hear. I confess that seeing Mr. Speaker Cannon in action has always interested me quite as much as what he said. [Laughter and applause. ] He has always appeared to me to be made up chiefly of spiral springs. [Laughter. ] I saw him once do, while speak- ing, a thing that I doubt if any other speaker ever duplicated since the confusion of tongues at Babel. In the heat of debate I saw him make a complete circle on his heel. [Laughter. ] He is one of the strongest rough-and-tumble debaters I ever heard or tackled.
