J Come Bring the Whole Family I McADOO ON ROOSEVELT. Pays Hitch Tribute to Fiichting Qual ities of the Ex-President. BY W. G. McADOO (Former Secretary of the Treasury.) Thcadore Roosevelt incarnated the fighting spirit of America. He did not sniff the battle from afar. He drank deeply! of its fire at the storm's cen tre. Whether upon the field of war or in tho political arena, he struck with mighty blows. He preferred the battle-ax to the sledge because he could cut deeper, and the trip-hammer to tho sledge because he could hit harder. It was his impetuous courage, his ready acceptance of every challenge;, his fighting quality, that captivated the popular imagination and welded to him, as with thongs of Bteel, a great body of supporters whose loyalty to him was phenomenal, and who follow ed him in every fight nnd wheresoev er he led with a faith and devotion which were in themselves the highest personal tribute. No quality of Mr. Roosevelt's mnde a stronger appeal to his countrymen than his fighting spirit and robust patriotism, nnd as long ns men live and love courage, he will havo a. secure place in the hearts of mankind. Moro than any man in our history, Mr. Roosevelt, in his fundamental characteristics, resembles Andrew Jackson. Like Jackson, he was a fight er; like Jackon. he believed absolute ly that what ho stood for was right; like Jackson, he thought that every body wrong; like Jackson, he was impatient of red tape and undeterred by obstac les; like Jackson, he incurred bitter enemies and attracted passionate friendships; like Jackson, he was ar bitrary, but he was forceful and com pelling. I recall the interesting fact that Mr. Roosevelt once told me in the White House of his profound admira tion of Jackson, which was not unnat ural, since they were so much alike in their general attributes. Mr. Roosevelt had punch ancf per sonality which made him immensely popular as an orator. He was also very human, and his robustness and ready accessibility endeared him to the public. Like all men of genius, Mr. Roose velt had his eccentricities, and like all men of impetuous force, his judg ments were not always right. He could not have been human if he ha been infallible. No one will claim in fallibility for Mr. Roosevelt, or for any man, and while it was not al ways possible to agree with his views and policies, no one could be so parti en n or blind ns to deny his great virtues or to give just recognition to the invaluable services he rendered to his country.
