Teddy Roosevelt: “Few observers can see beyond this temporary retrogression into the future for which it is a preparation.”

I am all right and you cannot escape listening to the speech either.

I have just been shot.

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.
