Oyster Bay, L. l., July 27.-President
Roosevelt to-day was notified formally OF
his nomination for the presidency by the
national Republican convention. The cere-
mony took place at his country home at
Sycamore Hill, three miles from this viii
lage. In accordance with the wish Of the
president, the ceremony was made as
simple as possible. The formal notifica-
ton of the action of the convention was
made, on behalf Of a committee repre-
senting every state and territory in the
United States. by Joseph G. Cannon,
speaker of the house of representatives.
At exactly 1910 p. m. Speaker Joseph
q. Cannon mounted a chair on the north
east side of the veranda near the railing.
President Roosevelt stood just below him
and at his right. Mrs. Roosevelt was al
most directly in front of Mr.. Cannon and
only a few feet away. Her daughter
Ethel and her sons Kermit and Quentin
stood near her. The guests occupied the
veranda. the ~assemblage extending in
both directions from the speaker.
Mr.. Cannon's speech was p~unctuated
with applause and laughter. and at it's
conclusion the president, after grasping
the speakers hand heartily, mounted the
chair to deliver his address.
So cordial was the applause, 1t was
nearly a minute before he was able to
proceed. Throughout the address the as
0emblage ~applauded and cheered the sa-
uont features Of the speech. After the
conclusion of the presidents address,
Speaker Cannon requested the committee
and guests to assemble on the lawn and
the steps and veranda "in order that they
may have their respective shadows Sc
cured ere the substance fade"
National Chairman Cortelyou left on a
special train for New York. He will re-

He expects in a few days to announce
the personnel of the national executive
committee which will consist Of nine
members. Later he will appoint an adj
visory committee which may include as
many as thirty members.
Tomorrow morning President Roosevelt
will start for Washington. He will
travel on a special train from here to
Long Island City. From Jersey City to
Washington he and his party will oc-

lar train, which will arrive in Washington
at 6:15 p. m 1t is not unlikely that he
may return to Oyster Bay in two weeks,
thus shortening his proposed stay at the
national capital.

velt's address were as follows:

Quoted that. while not one Of our just

with all foreign nations are now or the
most peaceful kind; there IS not a cloud

Venezuela and Panama we have shown

power with strict regard for the rights
of others, and for the cause Of interna-
tional justice and good will.
We earnestly desire friendship with all
the nations of the New and Old Worlds;
and we endeavor to place our relations
with them upon a basis Of reciprocal ad.
vantage instead of hostility. We hold
that the prosperity of each nation is an
aid and not a hindrance to the prosperity
of other nations. We seek international

American interests in the Pacific nave

fashion that we wish the Chinese empire

Our foothold In the Philippines greatly
strengthens our position in the competi-
ton for the trade of the East; but we
are governing the Philippines in the In
terest of the Philippine people them
selves. We have already given them a
large share in their government, and our
purpose is to increase this share as rap
idly as they give evidence Of increasing
fitness for the task. The great majority
Of the officials of the islands, whethe-
elective or appointive. are already native
Filipinos. We are now providing for a
legislative assembly. This i. the FIRST
step to be taken in the future; and It
would be eminently unwise to declare
what our next step will be until this first
step has been taken and the results are
manifest. To have gone faster than we
have already gone in giving the islanders
a constantly increasing measure of self
government would have been disastrous.
At the present moment to give political
independence to the islands would result
in the immediate loss of civil rights. per-

The humblest individual is to have his
rights ~safeguarded as scrupulously as
those Of the strongest organization, for
each is to receive justice, no more and
no less. The problems with which we
nave to deal in our modern industrial ana
social life are manifold: but the spirit
In which it is necessary to approach
their solution is simply the spirit of hon
esty, Of courage, and Of common sense.
In inaugurating the great work of irrf-
cation in the West the administration
has been enabled by congress to take
one Of the longest strides ever taken un-
der our government toward utilizing our
vast national domain for the settler. the
actual h~cme-maker.
Ever since this continent. was discov-
cred the need Of an isthmian canal to
connect the Pacific and the Atlantic has
been recognized: and ever since the birth
of our nation such a canal has been
planned. At last the dream has become
a reality. The sthmian canal is now be-
ing built by the government OF the Unit
ed States. We conducted the negotiation
for it's construction with the incest ana
most %scrupulous honor. and IN 2 spirit
Of the largest generosity toward those
through whose territory It was to run.
Every sinister effort which could be de-
vised by the spirit Of faction or the
spirit OF self-interest was made In order
to defeat the treaty with Panama ana
thereby prevent the contamination OF
this work.

Moreover, the betrayals OF trust in the
last seven years nave been insignificant
in number when compared with the ex-

the administration of the government been

A party is OF worth only in so far as
It promotes the national interest, and
every Official. high or low, can serve his
party best by rendering to the people the
best service Of which he is capable. Eff
fective government comes only as the re-
suit Of the loyal cooperation of many
different persons. The members OF a
legislative majority, the officers in the
various departments of the administra-
ton. and the legislative and executive
branches as towards each other, must
work together with subordination of self
to the common end OF successful govern
ment. We who have been %intrusted with
power as public servants daring the past
