OF the mechanic, the handicraitsmau,
the laborer. II we can insure the pros
perity of these two classes we need rot
trouble ourselves about the prosperity
ofthc re st, tor that will follow as mat
ter OF course. Vice President
Roose welt at opening OF Pan-American
Exposition, May 20. 1891.
1T Is. OF course n mere truism that
we want to use everything In our
power To foster the welfare OF our en-
tire body polite. In other words,
we need to treat the tariff as a bust
ness proposition, from the standpoint
OF the interest OF the country as a
whole, and not with reference to the
ten porary needs OF any POLITICAL par
ty."-Pr, sideut Roosevelt at Mime
apolis. April ! 10 }.
"Our average ieliow-ci,'z,n is a
sane and healthy man, who believes
in decency and has wholesome
mind. He therefore teels an equal
scorn alike Tor the man OF wealth
guilty of the mean and taSe spirit of
arroe ance towards those who ale le' $
well.oh and for the man Of small
mean. who In his turn either feels or
seeks to excite in others the feeling
of mean and base envy Tor those who
are better of President Roosevelt
at Syracuse. n. y, Sept. 7, 1898.
There Is no worse enemy OF the
wape-worker than the man who con-
dones mob violence In any shape. or
who breaches class hatred; and sure.
ly, the slightest acquaintance with
our industrial history should teach
even the most short.sighted that the
times when busine Is stagr ant. and
capital suffers from shrinkage and gets
no return from It's investment. are ex-
actly the times Of hardship and want
aud grim disaster among the people"
Pres. Roosevelt at Syracuse n. Y,
Sept. 7, 1873
1T is almost as Necessary that our
policy should be stable as that II
should be wise. A nation like ours
could not long stand the ruinous pol
icies of readjusting its business to
radical changes In the tarff at short
intervals, especially when, as now,
owing to the immease extent and va
riety Of our products, the tariff sche-
dulles carry rates OF duty on thous-
auds Of different articles. President
Roosevelt at Minneapolis. April 4
1908.
This Is an era OF great combina
tions both OF labor and Of capital. In
mauy WAYS these combin ations have
worked for good. but they must work
under the lsw.--Pres. Roosevelt at
Charleston, April 3, 1917.
