DEAN JACKSON TELLS OF
LIFE AND CHARACTER OF
EX-PRESIDENT ROOSEVELT
(Continued from Page One)
that he iindoubtedly would have been
impeached had not the Spanish-Ameri
can war come along.
Dean Jackson then told about his re
signing his position, and his getting the
commission to form a company which
resulted in the Rough Riders. The speak
er described the long ride from San
Antonio to Tampa, how word was sent
ahead to each town, and how everybody
in the towns turned out to welcome
them; how that when he reached Tampa
he went down to the wharf and picked
out the best ship, which happened not
to be intended for him, and ordered his
troops aboard and stayed.
The historian told about Roosevelt’s
election to the Vice-Presidency when he
went back to New York. “Roosevelt
went to all the hotels where the delega
tions were and emphatically said to every
man he saw, ‘Don’t you vote for me.
I don’t want to be Vice-President. What
ever you do, don’t vote for me.’ It turn
ed out that every vote cast except his
own was for Roosevelt. We will never
know whether it was a political scheme
or whether Roosevelt didn’t want the
election,” said Mr. Jackson, going on
with the events as they happened. Pie
told of Roosevelt’s election, of the death
of McKinley and his becoming President.
Here Dean Jackson gave a very realis
tic character sketch of Roosevelt, ex
plaining in detail the different phases of
his character. He gave three illustra
tions of Roosevelt’s fortitude: one, his
keeping the political appointment which
had been planned before he was knocked
40 feet when a street car hit his car
riage on the way to the appointment—
that is, until he was forced to give up
on account of an abscess from a bruise;
another, his speaking for an hour and
ten minutes after he had been shot in
the breast and the wound had been
dressed but the bullet left; still another,
when he insisted that the members of an
expeditionary party in South America go
on when he was ill and save themselves
from the surrounding dangers and leave
him in his critical condition to die. The
party refused to go and he passed the
crisis and got well.
P’he Dean gave instances of Roose
velt’s courage. One of them was his
going to see the man on the neighboring
ranch who had threatened to kill him
at sight, his saying “Here I am,’’ and
the excuse of the other, “Well, there
must be some mistake.” Another evi
dence which Mr. Jackson gave was his
threat as President to take over all the
coal mines of America and the compro
mise which resulted.
“He was as much at home with Bill
Dow and Bill Taft as he was with Bill
Hohenzollern, and he was at home with
all three,” said the Dean with reference
to his personality.
With reference to his versatility, Mr.
Jackson said, “He is the most versatile
President of any we have had except
Thomas Jefferson. In telling of his
many abilities he said that he was a
writer of books, an editor, and an ath
lete. He told of Roosevelt’s ability in
boxing, having boxed with nearly all the
prominent boxers. He related that Tom
my Gibbons knocked out his left eye

about eight years before the President’s
death. He spoke of Roosevelt’s taking
some French ambassadors on a 15 or 20-
mile afternoon stroll and making them
swim across Rock Creek.
The Dean said his chief value as a
statesman was in arousing the Ameri
can people to their civic responsibility.
He described him as a statesman with
whom none could be unenthusiastic, al
though many could disagree, an active
if an unwise statesman.
Mr. Jackson attributed the bitterness
with which Roosevelt attacked President
M''ilson to the bitterness caused by his
son’s deatli. “He passed out quietly in
1919. He was a remarkable man. I am
sure we shall not see his like again,”
was the speaker’s final comment.
