Theodore Roosevelt. [Philadelphia Press.] Theodore Roosevelt is a man of des tiny. Ilia star does not follow the aberrations of the meteor; it has its sure pathway; but old rules and pre cedents do not bind its flight No Vice-President who came to the Presi dency through the death of his chief was ever before nominated for the first place. The traditions were all against it. But Theodore Roosevelt had not been six months in the chair before it was plain that he was predestined for 1904. His fate is aitogtlier exceptional. That is the touchstone of his quality and career. He had a task far harder than any Vice-President thus succeeding, ex cept Andrew Johnson, and the way ward, besotted Johnson is out of all comparison. Roosevelt followed the best beloved of all Presidents save Lin coln. McKinley had won the un bounded confidence of the country. He was gentle, gracious, wise, consum mate, sure in his instincts, masterful in his methods. The people of all parties implicity trusted him. When they were suddenly berefit of him by the assassin's hand they shuddered and trembled. Roosevelt was entirely.dif ferent ir temperament and organiza tion and methods. He had been driven by events upon untried seas. Would the new hand be as Arm on the helm? Would the ship of state go forward with so sure and calm and steady a course? Within a week Roosevelt had allay ed fears; within a month he had estab lished faith; within half a year he had won full confidence and made his fu ture and the country's secure. He was great enough to grasp and carry forward McKinley's policies without a break, aud great enough to meet new questions and new emergencies with out a quiver. As wide apart in temp erament as the poles, the dead chief tain and the new President had the earns principles, the same virtues and the same purposes. They could not have been alike if they had tried, there could be no imitation; but with the same chart and the same compass the lines already fixed were faithfully fol lowed and the new occasions were unhesitatingly faced. President Roosevelt's character is an open book. Above all things he is frank, open and unequivocal. From the first he has taken the country into his confidence, and in turn the country gives its full confidence to him. Im pulsive?—yes, but with an unerring in stinct for the right. Self-reliant?— yes, but with the anchor of supreme loyalty to duty. Original and unique?— yes, but with the safety of fixed and sure ideals. He has in exalted measure the great fundamental virtues, truth, purity, uprightness, patriotism, pro bity and courage. He is as brave as a lion and as honest as the daylight. He has a lofty ideal of the public ser vice and is faithfnl to its standard. He measures up to the mark of duty himself, and is rigid in his exactions on those around him. He belongs to the rare type of men endowed with tha genius of great and arduous anhieve mant. Men compare him, not inaptly, with Emperor William, and his vived personality inspires the unstinted triG ute, perhaps excessive, of such sober historical students as James Bryce. However observers differ in their esti mates, none fail to recognize his powerful individuality, his instant per ception and his vital, virile action. If President Roosevelt's service were to end this year his administration would always live as one of the great historical administrations of the coun try. In strength of impress, in vigor of leadership, in originality and breadth of achievement it ranks among the foremost. It points to a distinct group of memorable results It has confirmed, broadened and vivified the Monroe Doctrine and secured a more explicit recognition of it from the world than has ever been given before. It has lifted and widened the principle of arbitration It has reorganized the American army on a sound and endur ing foundation. It has brought the practical and splendid fulfillment through the dramatic creation of the Panama Republic and the triumphant assurance of the Panama Canal. It has grabbled with the great problem of the control of trusts, and has given a new security to sound business and a new protection to popular rights by blazing the way to the lawful|regulation of corporations and combinations which may menace the public inter ests. It has by strong and masterful diplomacy in Europe and in the East brought the United States to a new height of prestige and influence and to new opportunities of commercial ex pansion The great record of which this is only a part justifies and emphasizes the appeal for continued confidence a support. The Opposition will seek to shut their eyes to the record and try to make battle on a personality. So be it. Welcome the issue! The record and the record-maker are inseparable. The Opposition say he is not safe. But where is the act, bold and vigorous as it may have been, that was unsafe? They say he has assumed power. But were has he overstepped the law or where lias lie asserted himself that was not for the public welfare? They say he is self-willed. But where in any emergency has he failed to take the wisest and best counsel? Strong, earnest, intense he is, with all the en ergy ofhis robust intellect and all the enthusiasm of his true heart, but at the same time with the poise of purpose and restraint of experience. Let the personal issue come. He is no decorous nobody, no negative figured head, 110 stuffed prophet. He is picturesque, ardent, wholesome, the biggest boy 011 the playground, the big gest man in the battle. Underneath j the roughness of the plains,underneath the eagerness of the cabinet is the sub stance of greatness and the lineness of the lofty ideal. The people like his fiber and his quality. They liked it when, with the sound of war, he put aside the bureau and put himseif at tho front. They liked it when, while the homes of the millions shivered and the comfortable coal chiefs looked askance, he commanded peace and settlement. He will not cease to be interesting, so long as lie is on the stage of action. His country will not cease to be re spected and reckoned with so long as he holds the scepter. It is not in his nature to fall short of the full stature of his place. He has not only filled tho measure of the Presidency but he has made himself the undisputed leader of the party. His nomination by accla mation and his election with only a feeble and shattered opposition will give him a unique title to distinction in the world's history. WASHINGTON LETTER. (From our Regular Correspondent.) Washington, June 25th. 1904. Editor P*ens:— The President was early at.his j desk Thursday morning, attending 1 to the every day humdrum labors i of his official position, calm, serene and industrious, notwithstanding the Republican convention was in session at Chicago which would nominate him for the Presidency. At noon lie had as a dinner guest for the second time Mr. Paul Morton, who had again hurried from' t the west to talk over situation. It is now understood that the President has induced him to ac cept the position of Secretary of the Navy, Mr. Moody becoming At torney General. The President appoints Mr. Morton because he has a high opinion of his ability and thinks him the best man for the place. Mr. Morton's recent conversion to Republicanism is re garded as a good thing, and may I have some influence 011 the vote in Nebraska. It is also recalled j that Mr. Dominie I. Murphy, re- I cently appointed Secretary of the j Panama Commission, is a Demo- I crat and under Cleveland was As -1 sistant Commissioner of Pensions. ! And Gen. Black, now Chief of the 1 Civil Service Commission was also a good Democrat in the days of Cleveland. Nevertheless, all these oppointments have been well re ceived and they help to break down party lines. The President was sitting on the south porch of the White House when at 2:13 p. in., Thursday, his Secretary, Mr. Loeb, brought the telegram announcing the fact of his nomination. He received it calmly and coolly and was at once congratulated by his wife, and such members of his family as were present. The next telegram cam e in hot haste from Senator Fair banks in which he said how glad he was to run on the same ticket with the President. A cordial re ply followed. After this congratu lations began to pour in from all quarters; from the Indiana delega tion in Congress, from Whitelaw Reid; from Senators Ald rich, Alger, and even Senator Smoot, while the citizens of Oyster Bay said they were firing guns and il luminating their houses. The j formal notification of the nomina | tion will be made at Oyster Bay, ! June 27. for which place Mrs. j Roosevelt left yesterday. The nominating speeches made at Chi cago, and the platform adopted, give universal satisfaction and are regarded as of the highest char acter and of the utmost import ance for not only Americans, but for all civilized nations. Secretary Hay's dispatch to the American consul at Tangier on Wednesday, which electrified the Chicago Convention, also sent a welcome thrill throughout the country. It indicates that if Mor occo did not use a little more dis patch, and secure the release of Perdicaris, the Government of the United States had the power and the purpose to enforce its demands. Mr. Perdicaris is not a ''natural ized" citizen, as has been stated, but is a native American, born in Trenton, N. J. His father was at one time a professor in Harvard University. His release and re turn to Tangier yesterday gives high satisfaction to President Roosevelt. CAMERON COUNTY PRESS, THURSDAY, JUNE 30, 1904.
