Teddy Roosevelt: “It is a great thing to commemorate their lives; but, after all, the worthy way to do so is to try to show by our lives…”

I wish to say that the Progressive Party is making its appeal to all our fellow citizens without any regard to their creed or to their birthplace.

I congratulate you thereon.

I want every labor man, every labor leader, every organized union man, to take the lead in denouncing crime or violence.

The fate of the leader for the time being is of little consequence, but the cause itself must in the end triumph, for its triumph is essential to the well-being of the American people.
