ROOSEVELT, Theodore:

President of the United States; was born in New York City, Oct. 27, 1858, the son of Theodore Roosevelt, merchant and philanthropist. He was graduated from Harvard University in 1880, and after a visit to Europe, he began the study of law in the office of his uncle, Robert B. Roosevelt; he soon entered politics, and was elected to the Assembly at Albany, in which he served three terms. In the third legislature to which he was chosen the Republicans had a majority, and he was candidate for the speakership. He was regarded as rather too independent, however, and did not get the position. In the Republican Convention of 1884, Mr. Roosevelt favored the nomination of Sen- ator Edmunds for the Presidency, but when Blaine obtained the nomination he entered actively into the campaign for the nominee of his party. In the same year he purchased a ranch in the North- west, and for several years he studied the remote West thoroughly, giving the benefit of his knowledge to the world in two books, "Ranch Life and the Hunting Trail" and "The Winning of the West." In 1886, the Republicans nominated Mr. Roosevelt for mayor of New York, being opposed by Henry George, the single tax champion, and Abram S. Hewitt, the reg- ular Democratic nominee. Mr. Roosevelt made a vigorous fight, but Abram S. Hewitt, the Democratic candidate, was successful. Mr. Roosevelt therefore re- mained in private life, but continued to take an active interest in public affairs,

and especially in reform of the civil ser- vice. He advocated the deliverance of the Federal service, and also that of State and city, from the "spoils system." In this Mr. Roosevelt met with much oppo- sition, but President Harrison appointed him in 1899, to the important place of United States Civil Service Commissioner, in which position he did his duty earnest- ly, irrespective of whom he pleased or displeased. When a Republican mayor, William L. Strong, was elected mayor of New York, the latter requested Mr. Roosevelt to become the head of the Police Board. He accepted the charge, and proceeded vigorously to compel his subordinates to do their duty and enforce the laws. He took the position that laws, while on the statute books, ought to be made effective, and that the executive au- thority had no right to repudiate a law simply because it was unpopular. April 6, 1897, Mr. Roosevelt gave up his place in the Police Department to become As- sistant Secretary of the Navy. Here he worked with his usual energy, and to ad- mirable effect, in putting the navy in excellent condition for the war with Spain which followed the blowing up of the Maine; much, if not most, of the pre- paratory work which helped to make the American fleet invincible at Manila and Santiago is credited to Mr. Roosevelt, and he selected George Dewey for the command of the Asiatic Squadron. He, however, chafed in Washington; when war was declared he accordingly tendered his resignation as assistant secretary; with President Mckinley's intimate friend, Dr. Leonard Wood, an army sur- geon, he organized the body of men known as the "Rough Riders," gather- ing recruits for the regiment from among his friends of the ranches and the West- ern cowboys. Surgeon Wood, on account of his superior tactical knowledge took command of the regiment, with Mr. Roosevelt second in command. He par- ticipated with his regiment in the fight- ing in front of Santiago, and displayed . conspicuous bravery in leading his troops. At the close of the war he returned with his regiment to Montauk Point, where he was mustered out of the service. In the following year he was nominated for and elected to the office of governor of New York. He proved a sagacious and con- servative governor, acting in everything with deliberation and discretion. Mr. Roosevelt aspired to a second term as- governor, but was induced to permit the use of his name for the Vice-presidency in the Republican National Convention of 1900; as Vice-president, Mr. Roosevelt continued to merit the esteem and con- fidence of the American people. His con- duct during the last days of President Mckinley showed that he keenly shared: the nation's grief over the assassination. From the moment that President Roose- velt was apprised of the fact that his great predecessor had departed this

ROOT, Elihu:

Secretary of War; was born in Clinton, Oneida County, N. Y., Feb. 15. 1845; in 1864 was graduated from Hamilton Col- lege, where his father was professor of mathematics. After graduation from the University Law School in the City of New York in 1867 he was admitted to the bar and engaged in active practice of his pro- fession in New York City; in a few years he became prominent both as a lawyer and as a leader of the reform element of the Republican party. Mr. Root has held the office of president of the New England Association, president of the Union League Club and president of the Republican Club of the City of New York. Devoting himself closely to his chosen work. he rapidly acquired an extensive practice, particularly in corporation cases, being the counsel in many of the most famous in the annals of New York City; few lawyers of to-day have re- markable a record of success in cases en- trusted to their care. He was leading counsel in the celebrated contest growing out of the will of the late A. T. Stewart, through the schemes of alleged Irish heirs. He was counsel in the Broadway surface

railroad litigation, the Sugar Trust con- test, the Aqueduct litigation, and, in one of the most sensational cases of modern times, he successfully defended Robert Ray Hamilton in the suit brought about through the machinations of the notori- ous Eva Mann. While serving as a United States District attorney he convicted Jo- seph D. Fish, president of the Marine Bank, of criminal complicity in connection with the celebrated Grant-Ward frauds; participated with much distinction as chairman of the Judiciary Committee and leader on the floor of the Republican ma- jority during the Constitutional Conven- tion of New York in 1894. His practice as a lawyer was characterized by constant work in the preparation of cases, and the wonderful power of concentration which enabled him to penetrate quickly to the marrow of the subject under investiga- tion; his arguments seldom failed to carry a comprehensive understanding and clear conviction to those whom he has from time to time been called upon to address. So forceful was his analysis and exposure of municipal corruption in the famous address delivered at Cooper Union during the Presidential campaign in 1892 that, at the time, the boldness of his assault astonished his hearers, but in the light of the Lexow exposures, following the Parkhurst agitation, his arraignment of evil-doers was completely justified. Sub- sequent to the close of the Spanish-Am- erican War, the condition of affairs de- manded that the office of Secretary of War should be filled by a lawyer of great administrative ability and one in the full possession of his mental and physical powers. The duties of the office were most intricate and complicated and called for physical self-sacrifice that few men are able to give to the work; no Secre- tary of War since the day of Edwin M. Stanton has had anything like the diffi- culties to adjust, the opposition to over- come and the new systems to inaugurate. Called suddenly from his legal profession in the City of New York, Mr. Root found himself confronted with the task of plac- ing an army of 70,000 men in the Philip- pine Islands to put down an insurrection attended with almost universal sympathy, if not the active support, of the inhabi- tants of those islands; communication was difficult and treachery, suspicion and assassination confronted the troops at every step. While called upon to conduct affairs with great firmness, the Secretary of War constantly held in view the neces- sity for carrying conviction to the minds of the inhabitants of all those islands that the American Army was not there for the purpose of exploitation, and that, having received the territory from the Spanish government, the great duty de- volved. upon the United States of provid- ing a proper government which would convey to the Philippine people some idea of the benefits to be derived from living under our flag. In the midst of this great

work the secretary was, early in his of- ficial career, compelled to take up the great burden of sending the Chinese Ex- pedition to rescue our minister and his household. This expedition was conduct- ed under instructions prepared by the Secretary of War, many of the most important questions arising during that trying period were left to his de- cision; that American interests were well protected and that our country emerged from the very complicated situation with every cause for self-satisfaction is a mat- ter of history. To the untiring and painstaking efforts of Mr. Root is greatly due the establishment of civil government in Porto Rico and the Philippine Islands, and the success of stable government far beyond just expectation in the island of Cuba. The solution by Mr. Root of thou- sands of intricate legal questions, involv- ing to a great extent our National honor, in the adjustment of civil and military af- fairs in Cuba, Porto Rico and the Philip- pine Islands stands without parallel; in the midst of this vast work he has been called upon to reorganize the army, to change our staff system and to build up a system of education and training for the army which will long stand as a mon- ument to his masterly ability; LL.D., Hamilton. 1894; Yale, 1900. Was member of Alaska Boundary Tribunal which sat in London in Sept. and Oct., 1903, and settled the dispute boundary between Alaska and Canada. Address, War De- partment, Washington, D. C.
