ROOSEVELT
By STEPHEN MAdIsTER
March 4, 1909

EORTH with his record open to the world
That all may read full record of the man,
The warrior, statesman and executive,
The straightforward diplomat, Peace arbiter,
World patriot record not unmarried
With scared injustice and abuse of power
And smears of obstinate caprice which mark
The itteness of Greatness, yet scroll
Blazoned with noble deeds and high attempts,
Brave conflicts and sage counsels, showing how
He grew in and larger grew in peace,
Strengthened with trial, and beating
OF envy, malice and revenge borne
To more exalted and serener heights,
Forth from the halls of Power the champion fares,
Forth to the level of his freeman peers,
By myriad loud acclaiming hosts adored,
Honored and blest and by the harried few
Hated yet despised, curst but not scorned,
Erect, with swelling breast and soul elate,
Conscious of merit, greedy of applause,
Proud that beneath his hand an unarmed state
Is made power among Earth's warrior Powers,
Proud that within mighty nations heart
And in the eyes of admiring world
He holds height other of his race
Alone in times Of peace hath e'er attained
Behold the forest monarch its huge boie
Rugged, storm Scared fame bemished to the core.
Yet with stout heart unscathed, rugous bulk,
But from afar the stately form
Towering aIoft, majestic and superb,
Dwarhng the lordly giants at its base,
A broad expanse of shelter and of shade,
Symmetrical, magnificent, sublime
In girth and breadth and stature only less
Than the Titanic twain whose mighty powers
Were nurtured and matured in blood rich soil,
So stands the tall Sequoia, so to stand
Throughout the years should not the elements
Which forced its growth now nursing other growths
Again be centered to its sustenance
Anew inspiring the proud to rise
In still expanding grandeur toward the skies.

Gossip of Railwayrnen

1t may be long time In COM
Ing. but it gets there at last.
Now. tell me in what walk OF life
is there the chance for a man in a
small position to have his name hand
ed down to posterity. to be remembered
after we have all passed away, to have
his name bawled out half a dozen times
a day by husky brakeman, his name
to be known even by members of the
interstate commerce commission and,
perhaps. the place called after him to
be made the scene of a famous lawsuit
or sensational murder.
Can this happen to any one else but
a railroadman.
Take the case of Amos Burr, for ex-
ample. He has worked for many roads
without hope of fame and here it is
suddenly thrust on him.
Does he show any undue pride in
having station on the Southern Pa
cific named after him? No. He is all
humility. Another man would feel all
puffed up. The honor for Burr is 81
miles south Of Exeter and 3.S miles
north of Lindsay From the fmpassive
countenance of Amos you would never
imagine that his name was to go BOOM
ing down the ages. and Gill sighed at
Burr's indifference.
