was as a telegraph operator that he came
to Omaha thirty-eight years ago, subse-
quently managing offices here of the At
lantic & Pacific and Great Western com
panies.
Edward Rosewater is in the best sense
a self-made man. From his early man
hood thorough student of affairs, CIV
ing close attention to all public questions,
few men in the nation are so well in
formed regarding our political history, or
well equipped for the intelligent dis
cussion of economic and political sub
jects, as his numerous speeches in past
political campaigns abundantly show. He
has acquired also knowledge of several
languages besides his native tongue, hav-
ing a full command of the English vo-
cabulary and speaking fluently German
and French. Mr. Rosewater has made
special study of postal affairs, both in
Europe and the United States, and was
one of the representatives of this country
In the international postal congress, held
in Washington in 1887. He is a forceful
and impressive speaker, whose matter,
while having none OF the flowers of
rhetoric" is always interesting and in
structive. He writes--or rather dictates
with facility, and few editorial writer's
in the country can turn out so much daily
when II is required of him. MIR. Rose
waters opinion on public questions has
frequently been sought by congressional
committees.
Now in his e1st year. Edward Rosewater
is still vigorous and active. His step is
as elastic, his carriage as erect, his per-
ception as keen and his mental grasp as
Arm as they have ever been. His vitality
and power of endurance are remarkable
Though he has been relieved of many
of the details of the daily work of get
ting out his great newspaper since his
two sons assumed control of departments
he maintains general supervision of
the business. A man OF most positive
character and strong convictions, Mr..
Rosewater has enemies, but he also has
a host of friends. and there is no doubt
that his foes are largely outnumbered
by those who admire his sterling abilities,
his energy and enterprise, his industry
and integrity. May he live many more
years to guide and direct The Bee and
to battle for the public interests and
welfare. e. c. HARDY.

vote and there is not a reasonable doubt
that majority of the people desired his
election.
To the development of Nebraska no
citizen has contributed more largely than
Mr.. Rosewater. This is not to be measured
by his property interests merely. From
its inception The Bee mas actively and
constantly labored for whatever would
promote the upbuilding of Nebraska.
Every interest of it's people has always
had in The Bee a hearty champion. Mr..
Rosewater's public spirit has been con-
spicuously manifested in Omaha in giving
encouragement to various enterprises. His
contribution to the growth of the city in
money expended has been liberal. The
Bee building is a splendid monument to
his enterprise and his faith in the future
of Omaha and his pen has never grown
weary Of inbuing the people With that
faith. Organized labor has always found
in Mr.. Rosewater a consistent friend, who
supported 1t In every Just demand. He
believes that labor Is entitled~to just treat
ment and fair reward and exemplifies this
belief in the considerable treatment of en-
ployes. He requires capable and faithful
work and all who render II are assured of
permanent tenure in the service OF The
Bee. Mr.. Rosewater likes to see about
him the old employees the men whose
loyalty and fidelity have been thoroughly
, tested and in all such he takes a friendly
interest.
Edward Rosewaters success in life is
due to no fortuitous circumstances What
he has accomplished owes nothing to
chance. 1t is the result and reward OF
wise and well directed effort. of untirins
energy and industry. of integrity of pur-
pose and OF keeping faith with the peo-
pie. Born in humble circumstances in
small village in Bohemia, he had little
opportunity there for schooling, and when
he came to America, boy OF Is, with no
knowledge of the language, he was poorly
equipped, save in ambition and industry,
for the battle of life among strangers
in a strange land. But adverse conditions
did not daunt him; they rather spurred
him on. Whatever he found to do he did
theoretically and with a will. He was
! never afraid Of work. however hard and
exacting. He never faltered in the per-
Torrance of a duty. With extraordinary
faculty for languages, young RosewateE
soon learned English, acquired a knowl-
edge Of bookkeeping, and five years after
he came to the United States was a tele-
graph oprator. 1t is needless to say that
| he became an expert teiegrapher and
that his services were in demand. Some
OF the most interesting incidents in his
career. greatly cherished by Mr.. Rose

Among American journalists the founder
and editor OF the Omaha Bee Mr.. Edward
Rosewater, occupies a prominent and hon
orabIe place. Very few people have any
adequate conception of what is required to
build up a daily newspaper until 1t be-
comes a power and influence in public
AFFAIRS, 1t is not an uncommon impress
sion that anybody can run a newspaper
yet the fact is that no other enterprise In
the business world requires for success
greater ability, better judgment, closer at
tention and more srduous and persistent
labor. The modern newspaper must Of
necessity be progressive. To stand still is
to retrogrades to lose in popular regard
and to fall into decadence, Therefore the
man who builds up a great daily Journal,
making II a respected force and influence
In the field II occupies and maintaining II
in the front rank OF the most highly de-
veloped journalism, must have uncommon
capabilities.
The career of the Omaha Bee and its
editor is so we'll known to the readers CT

in that language. Mrs. Rosewater, who
has always beep>a source OF inspiration
and courage to her husband, is still living
and giving him assistance and counsel In
his enterprises. 81
The door of his office is never locked
when the editor is within. 1t fronts di-
rectly on corridor and there Is no critical
secretary with request for names and cards
standing between the threshold and the
man. His door opens to a knock.
Anyone Is welcome to his time for
almost any purpose. In the corridor is
a long bench. Frequently It Is filled by
nondescript-looking persons. They come
for a variety of ACKNOWLEDGMENT rail-
way transportation, food, clothing, money,
assistance in projects. Often Rosewater
puts on his hat. escorts a man down the
street and remains by his side until the
latter has a job. He is the early prey of
all solicitors for charitable or benevolent
enterprises 70.
The Keynote of HIS Success.
The keynote of kosewaters success lies
in the phrase, Courageous enterprise"
He was always keen to make his paper the
best in its field in every way. and he was
not afraid to try any plan that looked good
or say anything he thought right. He
fought every time rather than lose the
value of independence. 81 ,@5
And in his life one thing fell TO his lot
that he can never think of without thrill
When President Lincoln signed the emari-
cipation proclamation. II was delivered
into Rosewaters hands and he telegraphed
It over the world. At that time he was
q member OF the military telegraph corps
and stationed at the war department after
arduous service in the field. He reached
this position following a youthful period Of
backing stoves, clerking in stores, running
an employment agency, and, at first, falling
as a telegrapher. But he Fept working
and won.
This might be added to this cursory ac-
count of his life.
Twice Mr.. Rosewater represented the
United States at the Universal Postal con-
gress. He was appointed as one of the two
delegates by President Mckinley in 1897.
when the congress met at Washington and
by President Roosevelt In 1906. when the
gress met in Rome He was vice presi-
dent of the former congress.
Mr.. Rosewater was accompanied to Rome
by Mrs. Rosewater and other members
of his family and after completing his
duties at the congress, he and his party
made considerable tour of portions of
Europe, visiting Mr.. Rosewaters BIRTH
place at Bukoyan. a small village In
! Bohemia
In the deliberations of the postal con-
gress he took an active part and was the
means OF securing for his government one
| additional delegate on the basis Of its
insular possessions.

His Business Methods.

Commercially Rosewater always has sac
rihced to his profession. His newspaper
property is worth a great deal ci money
and the structure ne reared for The Bee
is one OF the finest once buildings in
Omaha and a monument that will survive
many generations. The latter is partly
held, however by a mortgage on his life
insurance. There have been long stretches
when the paper lost money-drcary wastes
when only the shrewdest kind OF business
management prevented collapse II Is a
tradition that the establishment invariabl
