RACE WILL BE AMERICAN.
Future Status of the People of the
United States

United States.
The people of the United States are
often called Anglo-Saxo 1t is a mis-
homer. They speak the language of
the AngloSaxons. Their laws and
many of their institutions are but the
modified laws and institutions of the
Angio-Saxons. Many of them are OF
English descent. But their personality
already widely differs from that of
Englishmen, and the difference is
bound greatly to increase.
President Roosevelt brought out this
fact and one of it's causes in his ad-
dress at the unwilling of the statue
OF Frederick the Great. The blood of
almost every civilized people-of Irish
men, Englishmen, Germans, Italians,
Frenchmen, Slavs, Greeks and Scan
dinavians in American veins.
This unprecedented intermixture of
the practical genius of the English
man with the imagination of the Ital-
ian. of the steady industry and somber
temper of the Teuton with the mer-
curial habits and joyous disposition of
the Greek and the Latin, could not
fail in any circumstances to produce
race essentially different from any
of those from which it sprang.
races unprecedented. The conditions
under which it is happening also are
unique.
Henry Thomas Buckle believed that
the climate of a country formed, in
the long run, the minds and characters
of it's people. The inhabitants of the
tropics were indolent and unprogres-
sive because the bountiful earth pro-
vided for almost all their wants, while
the industry and progressiveness OF
these of temperate regions were born
of their successful struggles to make
niggardly nature yield them a living
Buckles generalization was too sweep
ing, but unquestionably peculiarities
of climate have helped mold the per-
sonality of all nations, and are help
ing shape the personality of ours.

1t is not now conceivable that Rus
