More from Teddy Roosevelt
Our country—this great Republic—means nothing unless it means the triumph of a real democracy, the triumph of popular government, and, in the long run, of an economic system under which each man shall be guaranteed the opportunity to show the best that there is in him.
Let not him who is houseless pull down the house of another, but let him work diligently and build one for himself, thus by example assuring that his own shall be safe from violence when built.
Now, Therefore, I, Theodore Roosevelt, President of the United States of America, by virtue of the power in me vested by section twenty-four of the Act of Congress, approved March third, eighteen hundred and ninety-one, entitled, 'An Act to repeal timber-culture laws, and for other purposes,' do proclaim that there are hereby reserved from settlement or entry and set apart as a public reservation, for the use and benefit of the people, all the tracts of lands, in the Territories of Arizona and New Mexico, shown as the Zuni National Forest on the two parts of the said diagram.
I, Theodore Roosevelt, President of the United States of America, by virtue of the power in me vested... do proclaim that the said lands are hereby added to the Apache National Forest.
