Description:Excerpt from Roosevelt Night: Middlesex Club, Boston, October 27, 1919 He stands for all those who arc firm in the faith that the Government of Massachusetts is not to be arbitrated. Governor Coolidge has rendered the greatest possible service not only to the State but to the nation." This is not my language, gentlemen. It is the language of Henry Cabot Lodge - (cheers) - spoken before the Republican state convention, and here are his concluding words: "When we go in our tens of thousands to the ballot box we may well be thankful that we have such a man at the head of our brave old State, and as we cast our votes with grateful hearts we can say, 'Here's to the pilot who weathered the storm.'" (Applause.) Governor, I can add nothing to that. Governor Calvin Coolidge Mr. President and Fellow Members of the Middlesex Club: The memory of a great man is with us on this day, a soldier, a statesman, a patriot, a President, but above all a great American, Theodore Roosevelt. He loved his fellow man. He loved his country. He loved justice. Life with him was a practical affair. He had thoughts and theories and principles, but they were important to him only as they gave a rule of action. With him a duty was something that ought to be done. Theodore Roosevelt was the courage of America to act. His voice is hushed now, his form is still, but his deeds live in an awakened civic conscience that takes on immortality. Others will speak of him and what he did. Let us, like him, consider what we ought to do, and knowing, let us, too, as becomes Americans, act. Recent events here have turned the eyes of the nation again toward Bunker Hill. What others see clearly, there is clanger in the confusion of a campaign we may fail to perceive. A policeman is a public officer. He is the outward symbol of the law. He represents the authority of the people. It is a high crime to interfere with him in any way in the discharge of his duties. On him depends the peace and order of the state. He is a judicial officer. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
