Theodore Roosevelt
Theodore Roosevelt: We are the Real Heirs to the Legacy of Abraham Lincoln and the Representatives of the People
24/01/1913. <blockquote><p>This is a new party one with no allegiance to a boss but just to the people: ""It is as idle to talk of our amalgamating with either of the old party machines as it would have been to talk of the Lincoln Republicans amalgamating either with the Bourbon Democrats or the Cotton Whigs of their day.""</p><p> </p><p>“There is no place in our ranks for the boss for the man who represents the alliance between privilege in business and privilege in politics… The only way they can efficiently fight for social and industrial justice for political and economic freedom for equality of opportunity is by joining the Progressive Party. They shall have exact equality of treatment with us without regard to whether they are ex-Democrats of ex-Republicans. We welcome all honest citizens to our ranks.â€</p></blockquote><p>Theodore Roosevelt first came to the presidency in 1901 following the assassination of William McKinley but won election in his own right in 1904 and proved an extremely popular chief executive. Shortly after the election of 1904 he announced that he would not be a candidate four years later—though he was so much the idol of the masses that he could easily have gained the Republican nomination in 1908. Adhering to his pledge however he arranged the nomination of his secretary of war William Howard Taft who was easily elected president in 1908. Taft faced a restless public and a split Republican Party. National progressivism was nearly at high tide and a large group of Republican progressives sat in both houses of Congress. These Republicans like a majority of Americans demanded reforms - such as tariff reductions an income tax the direct election of senators social justice and stricter railroad and corporation regulations. Taft was much more conservative philosophically than Roosevelt and failed to advance progressive ideals.</p><p>Republican insurgents were determined to prevent Taft’s renomination in 1912. They found their leader in Roosevelt who had become increasingly alienated from Taft and who made a whirlwind campaign for the presidential nomination in the winter and spring of 1912. TR swept the presidential primaries but Taft and conservative Republicans controlled the powerful state organizations and the Republican National Committee and when the Republicans gathered at their national convention in June 1912 it proved a bitter divisive affair. And so complete was Taft’s supporters’ control over the party machinery that delegate challenges made by Roosevelt were all beaten back—leading Roosevelt to refuse to have his name entered into nomination. Taft was nominated on the first ballot. Convinced that the bosses had stolen the nomination from him Roosevelt led his followers out of the Republican convention. In August they organized the Progressive “Bull Moose†Party and named Roosevelt to lead their third-party cause.</p><p>The Democrats emerged from their convention having nominated Woodrow Wilson. Roosevelt and the Bull Moose movement stressed its progressive reform credentials even controversially backing women’s suffrage. For Taft his single objective in the 1912 campaign was to defeat Roosevelt. The real contest however was between Roosevelt and Wilson for control of the progressive majority. Campaigning strenuously on a platform that he called the New Nationalism Roosevelt demanded effective control of big business through a strong federal commission radical tax reform and a whole series of measures to put the federal government squarely into the business of social and economic reform.</p><p>On election day November 5 Roosevelt outpolled Taft but failed to win many Democratic progressives away from Wilson. Though Wilson captured only about 42 percent of the popular vote he won 435 electoral votes. Between them Roosevelt and Taft secured 7.6 million votes—1.3 million more than Wilson—but Roosevelt won only 88 electoral votes and Taft won only 8. Taft’s 8 electoral votes represented the worst performance by an incumbent seeking reelection. But the defeat was stinging for TR and the Progressives as well.</p><p>In the wake of the 1912 defeat TR worked hard to rally the troops continue to advocate progressive ideals and move the party forward. <strong>Typed letter signed</strong> two pages on his The Outlook letterhead New York January 24 1913 to W.C. McDonald of the Progressive Club of Worcester Mass. comparing the Progressives to the Lincoln Republicans whom he calls progressive highlighting their fight for social and industrial justice and for the public good over privilege. <em>“I earnestly wish I could be with you on January 28th to greet the Progressives of Worcester County. As this is impossible I send you a letter of good will.</em></p><p><em>“The Progressive Party stands today precisely where the Republican Party stood in the days of Lincoln when it was the progressive party of the nation. It is as idle to talk of our amalgamating with either of the old party machines as it would have been to talk of the Lincoln Republicans amalgamating either with the Bourbon Democrats or the Cotton Whigs of their day. We stand absolutely for our platform; we believe in applying the principles of that platform to party management as well as to the government. There is no place in our ranks for the boss for the man who represents the alliance between privilege in business and privilege in politics.</em></p><p><em>“I firmly believe that there are literally millions of progressives among the rank and file both of the Republican and Democratic parties and that these men will sooner or later realize that they can do nothing where they are and that the only way they can efficiently fight for social and industrial justice for political and economic freedom for equality of opportunity is by joining the Progressive Party. They shall have exact equality of treatment with us without regard to whether they are ex-Democrats of ex-Republicans. We welcome all honest citizens to our ranks.â€</em></p><p>TR adds a PS.<em> “P.S. I cannot join that club excepting as an honorary member because otherwise I should be required to join clubs all over the country. I have however signed the form you enclosed.â€</em></p><p>An extraordinary and moving letter comparing the Progressives to the party of Lincoln and laying out clearly what the Progressive Party stands for and who is welcome to join its ranks.</p><p>After the party's defeat in 1912 it went into rapid decline in elections disappearing by 1920. But its spirit and programs were not forgotten and would be resurrected with great success by TR’s cousin and nephew-in-law Franklin D. Roosevelt.</p><p><img class=""alignnone wp-image-25018 size-post-window"" src=""https://cdn.raabcollection.com/wp-content/uploads/20231204144051/Folder-site-11-1600x1327.jpg"" alt="""" width=""1600"" height=""1327"" /></p> unknown

Theodore Roosevelt
Theodore Roosevelt & the Dawn of the American Century: ""I will tolerate no assault upon the navy or upon the honor of the country""
3/9/07. <blockquote><p>“.nor will I permit anything so fraught with menace as the usurpation by any clique of Wall Street senators of my function as Commander-in-Chief."".</p><p>With an original cartoon that Roosevelt himself cut out and sent with the letter</p></blockquote><p><img class=""alignnone wp-image-32065 size-post-window"" src=""https://cdn.raabcollection.com/wp-content/uploads/20240907141318/T-Roosevelt-Sept-3-1907-1-1-1-1600x579.jpg"" alt="""" width=""1600"" height=""579"" /></p><p>In 1898 at the end of the Spanish-American War the United States was thrust into the mainstream of international affairs and gained status as a world power acquiring as possessions the Philippines and Guam in the Pacific then Puerto Rico in the Caribbean. In 1901 Theodore Roosevelt brought to the White House a deep conviction that only through a strong navy could a nation project its power and prestige abroad. At his behest from 1904 to 1907 American shipyards turned out 11 new battleships to give the Navy awesome battle capabilities. This was timely because in 1907 hostilities with Japan seemed possible and the Japanese navy dominated the Pacific. America's problems with Japan arose shortly after TR mediated the treaty ending the Russo-Japanese War. In that conflict the Russian fleet had been annihilated by the Japanese but despite their triumphs over the Russians on the high seas the Japanese failed to get all they felt they deserved at the peace table and blamed Roosevelt for it. In the same year anti-Japanese feelings were sweeping California and the San Francisco Board of Education ordered the segregation of all immigrant and descendent Japanese school children. When the news of this reached Japan violent anti-American protests broke out. Roosevelt managed to persuade the Board of Education to discontinue its segregation policy in exchange for an agreement with Japan to slow down its stream of immigrants into the United States.</p><p>Roosevelt developed a plan to send the navy around the world expecting both to impress foreign nations serve as a warning to potential adversaries and provide the American people with an example of US naval prepardness strength and range. Such an impression he hoped would help him get the desired appropriations for even more battleships. Not everyone approved of the idea of sending the fleet on this cruise. Some critics were against this show of force while others were worried that the Atlantic naval defenses would be weakened by taking away so many ships. In Congress opponents like anti-Roosevelt Republican Senator Eugene Hale chairman of the Naval Appropriations Committee threatened to withhold money for the cruise. But this didn't bother Roosevelt who replied that it would proceed anyway.</p><p>Roosevelt came to office in a progressive era when corporate monopolies and conspiracies price fixing discriminatory commercial preferences and outright dishonest business practices were being recognized as problems that needed to be addressed. The new President believed strongly that the government could give Americans a more just and equitable society and to do this he needed to bring order and fair dealings to industry and commerce. He broke presidential ground by establishing a detailed program to “effectively control and regulate all big combinations†calling it the Square Deal. He created the Bureau of Corporations with the power to investigate businesses engaged in interstate commerce pursued this policy of “trust-busting†by initiating suits against 44 major corporations managed passage of the Elkins Act that regularized railroad rates and prohibited discriminatory practices and fought for and obtained regulation of food and drugs. Against the opposition of businesses seeking to exploit natural resources he advocated conservation and set aside vast government lands to strictly public use. Just as importantly he attacked the corruption in government that allowed the abuses he now sought to end.</p><p>But Roosevelt went a step farther than indicting business he was an outspoken opponent of those he called malefactors of great weath who used their power for evil purposes. As early as 1895 he wrote “Too much cannot be said against the men of wealth who sacrifice everything to getting wealth. There is not in the world a more ignoble character than the mere money-getting American insensible to every duty regardless of every principle bent only on amassing a fortune.†In 1906 TR complained “I do not like the social conditions at present. The dull purblind folly of the very rich men their greed and arrogance.and the corruption in business and politics have tended to produce a very unhealthy condition.†For these sentiments and personal assaults on them and their entire way of life the very rich hated Theodore Roosevelt as they would his cousin Franklin thirty years later.</p><p><img class=""alignnone wp-image-32066 size-post-window"" src=""https://cdn.raabcollection.com/wp-content/uploads/20240907141350/T-Roosevelt-Sept-3-1907-1-2-1600x903.jpg"" alt="""" width=""1600"" height=""903"" /></p><p>Wall Street was controlled by fewer men then and they were mainly well acquainted. Many belonged to the same clubs where they would meet to express their antipathy to Roosevelt and his policies. When from January 1906-November 1907 there was a decline in the stock market that saw the Dow Jones Industrial Average lose 48% of its value TR in a speech on August 20 1907 blamed the financial elites for fomenting that loss. â€It may well be that the determination of the government in which gentlemen it will not waver to punish certain malefactors of great wealth has been responsible for something of the trouble; at least to the extent of having caused these men to combine to bring about as much financial stress as possible in order to discredit the policy of the government and thereby secure a reversal of that policy so that they may enjoy unmolested the fruits of their own evil-doing.I regard this contest as one to determine who shall rule this free country—the people through their governmental agents or a few ruthless and domineering men whose wealth makes them peculiarly formidable because they hide behind the breastworks of corporate organization.â€</p><p>A few days later in its issue of August 28 1907 the satirical magazine Puck ran a cartoon entitled “Lunch Hour in Wall Street†with the left panel picturing five businessmen smugly enjoying their champagne and cigars over the caption “Before Roosevelt’s name is mentioned†and the right panel showing them in a turmoil cursing and kicking over their champagne above the simple word “After.†It well illustrated the attitutde of business to TR at the time and he saw the cartoon and was much taken with it. He was unafraid of these powerful men and dared them to impeach him; they hated him for that as well.</p><p>Mentioned also in the letter: 1 for almost half a century the reformer and journalist Dr. Albert Shaw was the owner and editor of “The American Review of Reviews.†His magazine remains one of the best primary sources on American reform between 1890 and 1920 providing not only a panoramic view of the range of reformers' interests but also the ties between British and American progressives. 2 During his campaign in 1904 Roosevelt had declared that he would not run again yet with 1908 approaching many urged him to do so. 3 Mark Twain was one of TR’s favorite authors and a noted progressive. 4 Charles H. Moyer was president of the miners’ union and Big Bill Haywood was the union’s secretary. They were activists and in the forefront of advocating confrontation with the mine owners who badly wanted to be rid of them. In 1906 the two union leaders were arrested for murder on trumped up charges. Union sympathizers from all over the country vociferusly called upon the President to act to free them. Roosevelt was not an enemy of the union cause generally but disliked Haywood and Moyer for “preaching an industrial and social policy that is damaging to the best interests of the wage-workers of the country.†Clarence Darrow headed the Moyer/Haywood defense team and the men were ultimately acquitted.</p><p><img class=""alignnone wp-image-32069 size-post-window"" src=""https://cdn.raabcollection.com/wp-content/uploads/20240907142625/T-Roosevelt-Sept-3-1907-2-1-1-1600x1017.jpg"" alt="""" width=""1600"" height=""1017"" /></p><p><strong>Typed Letter Signed</strong> on White House letterhead but datelined Oyster Bay N.Y. two pages September 3 1907 to Shaw packed with important commentary demonstrating his courage attacking the wealthy malefactors and Wall Street defending sending the White Fleet discussing Japan and ending with a mention of Mark Twain. <em>“Would you be willing to reproduce this cartoon from PuckPuck is entirely disinterested and as far as I know is rather unfavorable to me and the cartoon is simply a good illustration of the current mania in Wall Street. As regards myself the mania makes not one particle of difference. Unless I am impeached I shall be President for eighteen months and I shall most certainly not be President any longer and in all probability will hold no public office so that the hysterical violence of the attacks of the Wall Street crowd are of no possible consequence to me. But they have shown signs recently of getting into a condition not much better than that of the Moyer and Haywood people. The New York Sun for instance which is their most servile and most violent and most unscrupulous representative is as part of its campaign on behalf of the wealthy malefactor class trying to prevent the fleet from going to the Pacific. It cannot prevent it. I will tolerate no assault upon the navy or upon the honor of the country nor will I permit anything so fraught with menace as the usurpation by any clique of Wall Street senators of my function as Commander-in-Chief. You know far too much of foreign events and of the needs of the navy for it to be necessary for me to explain to you how important it is that we should now see by actual experiment just how our battle fleet can go to the Pacific and you perhaps know how useful the mere statement that it was going there has already been in quieting the clamor for hostilities against us by the Japanese yellow press. Can not you come here to lunch Friday the 13thMark Twain and Doubleday will be there.†</em>The original cartoon from Puck is included.</p><p><img class=""alignnone wp-image-25018 size-post-window"" src=""https://cdn.raabcollection.com/wp-content/uploads/20231204144051/Folder-site-11-1600x1327.jpg"" alt="""" width=""1600"" height=""1327"" /></p> unknown

Theodore Roosevelt
Theodore Roosevelt Seeks to Hold Together the Progressive Party Meeting With Congressmen and Senators of the Party in the Wake of their 1912 defeat
1/1/13. <blockquote><p>This letter was obtained by us directly from the recipient’s family and has never before been offered for sale</p></blockquote><p>During his campaign for the presidency in 1904 Theodore Roosevelt publicly resolved not to run in 1908; instead he supported his secretary of war William Howard Taft as the Republican nominee. Taft was elected president in 1908 but his conservative politics led to a falling out with Roosevelt who decided to return to the political arena in order to oppose his former ally. In the 1912 election therefore it was Roosevelt who accepted the nomination of the newly formed Progressive Party. Progressives held a convention in Chicago that was populated by dedicated reformers who wanted to radically remake America. Their numbers included suffragettes social workers urban planners conservationists labor activists political reformers and idealists of all strains. Neither the candidate nor the platform let them down. The platform and Roosevelt also called for the reform of political parties to make them more accountable to the people and less beholden to special interests.</p><p>The Progressive Party platform stated “This country belongs to the people who inhabit it. Its resources its business its institutions and its laws should be utilized maintained or altered in whatever manner will best promote the general interest…Instead of instruments to promote the general welfare they have become the tools of corrupt interests which use them impartially to serve their selfish purposes. Behind the ostensible government sits enthroned an invisible government owing no allegiance and acknowledging no responsibility to the people…To destroy this invisible government to dissolve the unholy alliance between corrupt business and corrupt politics is the first task of the statesmanship of the day.â€</p><p>The platform declared for direct primaries for the nomination of state and national officers for nation-wide preferential primaries for candidates for the presidency for the direct election of United States senators by the people and initiative referendum and recall of officeholders. Further it called for legislation looking to the prevention of industrial accidents occupational diseases overwork involuntary unemployment and other injurious effects incident to modern industry; the fixing of minimum safety and health standards for the various occupations and the exercise of the public authority of state and nation including the federal control over interstate commerce and the taxing power; the prohibition of child labor; minimum wage standards for working women to provide a living scale in all industrial occupations; the protection of home life against the hazards of sickness irregular employment and old age through the adoption of a system of social insurance adapted to American use; and establishing continuation schools for industrial education under public control and encouraging agricultural education and demonstration in rural schools. It was in favor the organization of the workers men and women as a means of protecting their interests and of promoting their progress thus favoring unions. It demanded equal suffrage for women and under TR’s influence contained trust-busting provisions.</p><p>In the end Roosevelt fell far of winning drawing 27% of the vote to Wilson's 42% but ahead of Taft's 23%. Roosevelt received 88 electoral votes compared to 435 for Wilson and 8 for Taft. This was nonetheless the best showing by any third party since the modern two-party system was established in 1864. Roosevelt was the only third-party candidate to out poll a candidate of an established party. This mainly positive showing led Progressive Party leaders to look to the future and they hoped to do well in the 1914 Congressional elections. It also led TR to exert efforts to retain the unity of the party and continue building it in the wake of what was still a defeat. The Progressives would contest 138 Congressional districts candidates being women as well as men. However just 5 were elected and almost half the candidates failed to get more than 10% of the vote. The Progressive Party disappeared into history and when in 1916 the Republicans nominated the progressive-leaning Charles Evans Hughes TR supported him. Roosevelt never renounced his progressive credentials but then turned his attention to advocating American involvement in World War I.</p><p>William Hinebaugh was chairman of the Republican Party in Illinois but switched to the Progressive Bull Moose Party in 1912 when his friend Theodore Roosevelt split with the Republican Party. It was on the Progressive Party ticket that Hinebaugh was elected to the 63rd U.S. Congress from the 12th Illinois District where he served one term 1913-1915. Victor Murdock was a Representative from Kansas. He was a loyal Progressive and would be elected as chairman of the Progressive Party in 1914 and 1916. In 1916 when Theodore Roosevelt refused to run the Progressive Party nominated Murdock for president but he did not appear on the ballot. Irvine Lenroot William Kent and Ira Copley were Republicans supportive of the Progressive agenda.</p><p><strong>Autograph letter signed</strong> on his Outlook letterhead no date or place but likely 1913 when TR was trying to hold together the Progressive Party after its 1912 defeat to Hinebaugh inviting him to meet with Progressive members of Congress. <em>“At ten Tuesday evening after lecture will you take me to National Headquarters to meet Progressive Senators and Congressmen for a couple of hours Tell Davis this is instead of our plan as it will give me more time with them.â€</em> The Davis referred to was Oscar King Davis Secretary of the Progressive Party.</p><p>This is a rare ALS of TR as head of the Progressive Party being just the second we have had.</p><p>Of this letter Edward F. O'Keefe CEO of<span style=""font-weight: 400;""> the </span><span style=""font-weight: 400;"">Theodore Roosevelt Presidential Library Foundation</span> wrote ""<span style=""font-weight: 400;"">Denied the Republican nomination he rightfully won Theodore Roosevelt bolted the party and ran as the Progressive Party candidate in 1912.

You will never be President of the United States again.' She was right as she often was. The loss was devastating. TR wrote his autobiography explored the River of Doubt and tried as evidenced in this letter to keep his dimmed electoral prospects alive. He refused to stand as the Progressive Party nominee in 1916 and the Republican Party refused to have him back. By 1920 the year in which TR was favored once again as the Republican nominee he would be dead long before Election Day.""</span></p><p>This letter was obtained by us directly from Congressman Hinebaugh’s descendants and has never before been offered for sale.</p><p><img class=""alignnone wp-image-25018 size-post-window"" src=""https://cdn.raabcollection.com/wp-content/uploads/20231204144051/Folder-site-11-1600x1327.jpg"" alt="""" width=""1600"" height=""1327"" /></p> unknown

Theodore Roosevelt
Theodore Roosevelt Manifests the Leadership Principle That Patriotism Must Triumph Over All Personal Considerations
26/07/1918. <blockquote><p>TR: “I am not concerned about his attitude towards me personally. I am concerned only with the attitude of every such leader of thought towards the affairs of the nation. I am with any man who in the stormy days through which we are passing and which are ahead of us takes the right stance…â€</p><p> </p><p>Refusing to look back on disagreements or slights he says “I care nothing for the past except insofar as it affects the futureâ€</p></blockquote><p>Theodore Roosevelt was interested in South America and in 1913 he journeyed to Brazil and took a trip down an uncharted tributary of the Amazon: the mysterious River of Doubt. The expedition collected many new animal and insect specimens but TR nearly died during the voyage and his health was permanently damaged. He remained widely known for his interest in both South America and zoology.</p><p>Dr. Carl Eigenmann was an alumnus of Indiana University an instructor/professor in IU's department of zoology and an administrator at the university for more than forty years. He was also the first dean of the IU graduate school from 1908 to 1927. As a German-American he faced hostility during the anti-German hysteria in World War I. Will Irwin was a businessman in Indiana and a member of the Finance Committee of the Indiana State Council of Defense which was dedicated to defense purposes. The organization was formed when World War I broke out at the suggestion of the National Council of Defense and was engaged in work supporting the war. In 1918 Irwin financed an academic expedition to South America and insisted that Eigenmann come along despite the anti-German feeling abroad in the land. The Irwin Expedition to South America took place in 1918 and Eigenmann was its chronicler. It was a success and the participants brought home many specimens.</p><p><strong>Typed letter signed</strong> on his letterhead Oyster Bay July 26 1918 to William Irwin in response to a letter from Irwin apparently sending some samples collected by his expedition. <em>“I thank you for your letter and for the enclosure and I am much obliged to you for what you tell me about Mr. Smith. I know you will understand me when I say that I am not concerned about his attitude towards me personally. I am concerned only with the attitude of every such leader of thought towards the affairs of the nation. I care nothing for the past except insofar as it affects the future. I am with any man who in the stormy days through which we are passing and which are ahead of us takes the right stance and I will work most heartily with him if he does take that right stand. It was a great pleasure seeing you at Indianapolis. I am extremely pleased to learn through Frank Polk that Dr. Eigenmann is to be allowed to go to the Andes.â€</em> Smith was likely a relative of Mrs. Eigenmann as her maiden name was Smith.</p><p>It takes a great man and masterful leader to put aside personal feelings for the sake of the country as Roosevelt and Lincoln did. It’s a rare letter indeed in which TR manifests this principle this being the first we have ever seen.</p><p><img class=""alignnone size-post-window wp-image-25018"" src=""https://cdn.raabcollection.com/wp-content/uploads/20231204144051/Folder-site-11-1600x1327.jpg"" alt="""" width=""1600"" height=""1327"" /></p> unknown
