Theodore Roosevelt is now President of the United
States. He needs no introduction to the American public. His conduct as a private
citizen, as an officeholder and as a soldier is well known. It establishes his
fitness for the great office which has fallen to him. His speeches have shown
the trend of his thoughts along political lines. These stand approved by the
people who have never failed to accord him distinguished consideration wherever
he has gone. Furthermore he has given it out that he intends to follow well
the foot prints of the matchless McKinley as they concern the government’s policies
and political activities.
Colonel Roosevelt, already greatly loved for his
brilliancy and well tempered aggressiveness, is expected to perpetuate the popularity
of the administration. He is of high capability and gives every promise of maintaining
the status quo of the government in all of its recent undertakings and successfully
conducting such new ones as may fall his lot as the incumbent of the presidential
chair.
