‎Former President Theodore Roosevelt Writes “I Am Now Receiving Nearly Two Thousand Letters A Week And It Is Almost Impossible To Deal With The Mail…My Experience Has Been Exactly Like Yours As To The Cowardice And Hypocrisy Of So Many Of The Professional ‘Uplifters’ With Whom We Are Dealingâ€‎

‎TLS. 2pg. 7†x 10â€. May 27 1916. Oyster Bay. A lengthy and feisty typed letter signed “Theodore Roosevelt†with numerous handwritten corrections throughout. He wrote to Mrs. A.W. Nicholson of Portland Oregon who was a prominent local Republican: “I am now receiving nearly two thousand letters a week and it is almost impossible to deal with the mail and utterly out of the question for me to answer the letters I prize the most with more than a few lines. Your letter has only just been brought before me but not the story of Adison Bennet’s to which you referred. I fear it has gone…I am happy to say I was of a little assistance in getting Homer’s son a place on a railroad where when I last heard from him he was doing well. My dear Mrs. Nicholson if I start a movement to give a stone to Homer you have no conception of the multitude of similar movements I would have to go into. It seems churlish not to do it as you request but if you were in my place you would understand I simply can’t undertake one such matter without inviting like demands in hundreds of other cases. By George I wish I had met your boy so as to recognize him. If I had realized who he was when he was playing polo on Long Island I would have gotten him to come over for lunch. I understand exactly how you feel my dear Mrs. Nicholson in having him among those men the men with whom he is entitled to associate as a gentleman – and I never met a more typical gentleman one whom Mrs. Roosevelt and I both felt in the same way about! than a certain gentlewoman who bought her boys up on a ranch! That was a striking experience you touched on in your letter. Of course my experience has been exactly like yours as to the cowardice and hypocrisy of so many of the professional ‘uplifters’ with whom we are dealing. I have only this time to send you this line of thanks and good will.†Addison Bennett was editor of an Oregon newspaper. The letter has light fading to the purple typewriting and a vertical and horizontal fold. The signature is large and dark as is the handwriting throughout. unknown books‎

‎THEODORE ROOSEVELT‎

‎NYPD Commissioner Teddy Roosevelt Argues the Police Entrance Exam Keeps “Blockheads†Off the Force‎

‎<p>Theodore Roosevelt as New York City Police Commissioner defends his reforms including his implementation of an entrance exam for candidates a year before his victory in the gubernatorial election. "<i>We have appointed sixteen hundred patrolmen under these examinations . If they were strong hardy young fellows of good character and fair intelligence they got their appointments. As a whole they form the finest body of recruits that have ever been added to the New York police force.</i>"</p> <b>THEODORE ROOSEVELT.</b>Typed Letter Signed as New York City Police Commissioner to W.C. Sanger defending the police entrance exam February 5 1897 New York N.Y. On "<i>Police Department of the City of New York</i>" stationery. 8 pp. 8 x 10½ x ¼ in.<p><b><br /></b></p><p><b>Partial Transcript:</b></p><p>"<i>I have read with interest the four pages of questions quoted from the Police Civil Service examinations under the heading 'The Reign of Roosevelt' and apparently gathered by or for <b>Mr. Abraham Gruber. He refers to these questions as if they were in some way improper and not such as should be asked candidates for the position of patrolman</b>. It may be well at the outset to state that patrolmen receive ultimately $1400. a year and that from their ranks are developed a Chief a Deputy Chief five Inspectors thirty-seven Captains nearly two hundred Sergeants and nearly two hundred Roundsmen with salaries ranging from $6000. to $1500 . <b>Mr. Gruber's contention apparently is that questions which it is proper to ask a man before he becomes a citizen are improper when asked him upon his seeking to become the official representative of all citizens and in a peculiar sense the guardian of the laws and the upholder of the government</b> . Perhaps by quoting the answers to some of the questions we asked it may be possible to give a clearer idea of the mental development of the candidates who failed. For example: one question we asked was to name five of the States that seceded from the Union in 1861. One answer was 'New York Albany Pennsylvania Philadelphia and Delaware.' Another question was 'Name five of the New England States' One answer to this question was 'England Ireland Scotland Whales and Cork.' Another was 'London Africa and New England.' . Another question was 'Upon what written instrument is the government of the United States founded' The conclusion one bright competitor reached was expressed in the brief word 'Paper.' . Yet another question was 'Into what three branches is the government of the United States divided' Rather a common answer to this during the heat of the last campaign was 'Democrats Republicans and Populists' . I will ask any thoughtful man after reading over those answers to questions whether on the average it is not likely that a man of sufficient intelligence and public spirit to know a little about the government and its history is not apt to make a better public employee especially in the police force than the blockhead who is incapable of understanding what the words 'government' and 'history' mean . <b>We have appointed sixteen hundred patrolmen under these examinations</b> . <b>If they were strong hardy young fellows of good character and fair intelligence they got their appointments. As a whole they form the finest body of recruits that have ever been added to the New York police force</b>.</i>"</p><p><b>Historical Background</b></p><p>Theodore Roosevelt became New York Police Commissioner in 1895 inheriting a force weakened by widespread Tammany Hall corruption and patronage; promotions were often doled out based on political affiliation or sold. With his customary zeal for reform Roosevelt sought to reinvent the NYPD. He established a new set of disciplinary rules reorganized the Detective Bureau started a school of pistol practice and instituted regular inspections of firearms and annual physical exams. He also championed a tougher more comprehensive entrance exam that emphasized general knowledge in subjects such as history government and geography.</p><p>Some critics including prominent Republican criminal lawyer and politico Abraham Gruber 1861-1915 objected to the exam seeing snobbery in the "Reign of Roosevelt." As this hilarious letter indicates Roosevelt rejected their arguments completely. Roosevelt's letter appeared in the <i>New York Times</i> on February 7 1897 p24/c5.</p><p>Seeking to promote the idea of policing as an ethical and honorable profession he established the first police meritorious service medals and widened the pool of applicants to include ethnic minorities. In his two years as president of the Police Commission Roosevelt oversaw the appointment of 1600 new recruits chosen solely for their qualifications not connections. After the election of 1896 Roosevelt resigned to become Assistant Secretary of the Navy in the administration of President William McKinley.</p><p><b>William C. Sanger</b> 1853-1921 born in Brooklyn was educated at the Brooklyn Polytechnic Institute Harvard College and Columbia Law School and became a New York City lawyer. He and his wife then moved to Oneida County on lands settled by his revolutionary-era ancestor Jedediah Sanger. He was elected to the state assembly as a Republican and became friendly with Theodore Roosevelt each being concerned in civil service reform. Sanger also began service in the New York State National Guard and became lieutenant colonel of the 203rd N.Y. Infantry and was later appointed Inspector General of the State National Guard by Roosevelt. He was then appointed Assistant Secretary of War by McKinley and served under Roosevelt. In retirement Sanger served as president of the state branch of the Red Cross and president of the New York State Hospital Commission. Roosevelt and Sanger were each members of the Boone and Crockett Club an important wilderness preservation advocacy group.</p> books‎
