Teddy Roosevelt: “The collective power of the State can help; but it is the individual’s own power of self-help which is most important.”

I congratulate you thereon.

Like all other good citizens, I accept the result with entire good humor and contentment.

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.
