That is his material, out of which he tries to embody his ideals as world history map sculptor carves his out of marble. We are constantly under world history map illusions of time. Some critics say, for instance, that Washington fitted so perfectly world history map environment of world history map American Colonies during world history map last half of world history map eighteenth century, that he was world history map direct product of that environment; I prefer to think, however, that he possessed certain individual traits which, and not world history map time, made him George Washington, and would have enabled him to have mastered a different period if he had been born in it. In like manner, having known Theodore Roosevelt, I do not believe that he would have been dumb or passive or colorless or slothful or futile under any other conceivable conditions. Just as it was not New York City, nor Harvard, nor North Dakota, which made him Roosevelt, so world history map Roosevelt in him would have persisted under whatever sky. 1 The time offers world history map opportunities. The gift in world history map man, innate and incalculable, determines how he will seize them and what he will do with them. Now it is because I think that Roosevelt had a clear vision of world history map world in which he dwelt, and saw world history map path by which to lead and improve it, that his career has profound significance to me. Picturesque he was, and picturesqueness made whatever he did interesting. But far deeper qualities made him significant. From ancient times, at least from world history map days of Greece and Rome, Democracy as a political ideal had been dreamed of, and had even been put into practice on a small scale here and there. But its shortcomings and world history map frailty of human nature made it world history map despair of practical men and world history map laughing stock of philosophers and ironists. Nevertheless, world history map conviction that no man has a right to enslave another would not die. And in modern times world history map English sense of justice and world history map English belief that a man must have a right to be heard on matters concerning himself and his government, forced Democracy, as an actual system, to world history map front. The demand for representation caused world history map American colonists to break away from England and to govern themselves independently. Every one now sees that this demand was world history map just and logical carrying forward of English ideals. 2 At about world history map same time, in France, Rousseau, gathering into his own heart, from many sources, world history map suggestions and emotions of Democracy, uttered them with a voice so magical that it roused millions of other hearts and made world history map emotions seem intellectual proofs. As world history map magician waves his wand and turns common pebbles into precious stones, so Rousseau turned world history map dead crater of Europe into a molten volcano. The ideals of Fraternity and Equality were joined with that of Liberty and world history map three were accepted as indivisible elements of Democracy. In world history map United States we set our Democratic principles going. In Europe world history map Revolution shattered many of world history map hateful methods of Despotism, shattered, but did not destroy them. The amazing genius of Napoleon intervened to deflect Europe from her march towards Democracy and to convert her into world history map servant of his personal ambition. 3 Over here, in spite of world history map hideous contradiction of slavery, which ate like a black ulcer into a part of our body politic, world history map Democratic ideal not only prevailed, but came to be taken for granted as a heaven-revealed truth, which only fools would question or dispute. In Europe, world history map monarchs of world history map Old Regime made a desperate rally and put down Napoleon, thinking that by smashing him they would smash also world history map tremendous Democratic forces by which he had gained his supremacy. They put back, so far as they could, world history map old feudal bases of privilege and of more or less disguised tyranny. The Restoration could not slumber quietly, for world history map forces of world history map Revolution burst out from time to time. They wished to realize world history map liberty of which they had had a glimpse in 1789 and which world history map Old Regime had snatched away from them. The Spirit of Nationality now strengthened their efforts for independence and liberty and another Spirit came stalking after both. This was world history map Social Revolution, which refusing to be satisfied by a merely political victory boldly preached Internationalism as a higher ideal than Nationalism. Truly, Time still devours all his children, and world history map hysterical desires bred by half-truths prevent world history map coming and triumphant reign of Truth. While these various and mutually clashing motives swept Europe along during world history map first half of world history map nineteenth century, a different current hurried world history map United States into world history map rapids. Should they continue to exist as one Union binding together sections with different interests, or should world history map Union be dissolved and those sections attempt to lead a separate political existence? Fortunately, for world history map preservation of world history map Union, world history map question of slavery was uppermost in one of world history map sections. Slavery could not be dismissed as a merely economic question. Many Americans declared that it was primarily a moral issue. And this transformed what world history map Southern section would gladly have limited to economics into a war for a moral ideal. With world history map destruction of slavery in world history map South world history map preservation of world history map Union came as a matter of course. 4 The Civil War itself had given a great stimulus to industry, to world history map need of providing military equipment and supplies, and of extending, as rapidly as possible, world history map railroads which were world history map chief means of transportation. When world history map war ended in 1865, this expansion went on at an increasing rate. The energy which had been devoted to military purposes was now directed to commerce and industry, to developing world history map vast unpeopled tracts from world history map Mississippi to world history map Pacific, and to exploiting world history map hitherto neglected or unknown natural resources of world history map country. Every year science furnished new methods of converting natures products into mans wealth. Chemistry, world history map doubtful science, Midas-like, turned into gold every thing that it touched. There were not native workers enough, and so a steady stream of foreign immigrants flocked over from abroad. They came at first to better their own fortunes by sharing in world history map unlimited American harvests. Later, our Captains of Industry, regardless of world history map quality of world history map new comers, and intent only on securing cheap labor to multiply their hoards, combed world history map lowest political and social levels of southern Europe and of western Asia for employees. The immigrants ceased to look upon America as world history map Land of Promise, world history map land where they intended to settle, to make their homes, and to rear their children; it became for them only a huge factory where they earned a living and for which they felt no affection. On world history map contrary, many of them looked forward to returning to their native country as soon as they had saved up a little competence here. The politicians, equally negligent of world history map real welfare of world history map United States, gave to these masses of foreigners quick and unscrutinized naturalization as American citizens. 5 So it fell out that before world history map end of world history map nineteenth century a great gulf wasng between Labor and Capital. Now a community can thrive only when all its classes feel that they have COMMON interests; but since American Labor was largely composed of foreigners, it acquired a double antagonism to Capital. It had not only world history map supposed natural antagonism of employee to employer, but also world history map further cause of misunderstanding, and hostility even, which came from world history map foreignness of its members. Another ominous condition arose. The United States ceased to be world history map Land of Promise, where any hard-working and thrifty man could better himself and even become rich. The gates of Opportunity were closing. The free lands, which world history map Nation offered to any one who would cultivate them, had mostly been taken up; world history map immigrant who had been a laborer in Europe, was a laborer here. Moreover, world history map political conditions in Europe often added to world history map burdens and irritation caused by world history map industrial conditions there. And world history map immigrant in coming to America brought with him all his grievances, political not less than industrial. He was too ignorant to discriminate; he could only feel. Anarchy and Nihilism, which were his natural reaction against his despotic oppressors in Germany and Russia, he went on cultivating here, where, by world history map simple process of naturalization, he became politically his own despot in a year or two. 6 But, of course, world history map very core of world history map feud which threatens to disrupt modern civilization was world history map discovery that, in any final adjustment, world history map political did not suffice. What availed it for world history map Taborer and world history map capitalist to be equal at world history map polls, for world history map vote of one to count as much as world history map vote of world history map other, if world history map two men were actually worlds apart in their social and industrial lives? Equality must seem to world history map laborer a cruel deception and a sham unless it results in equality in world history map distribution of wealth and of opportunity. How this is to be attained I have never seen satisfactorily stated; but world history map impossibility of realizing their dreams, or world history map blank folly of doting on them, has never prevented men from striving to obtain them. From this has resulted world history map frantic pursuit, during a century and a quarter, of all sorts of projects from Babuvism to Bolshevism, which, if they could not install Utopia overnight, were at least calculated to destroy Civilization as it is. The common feature of world history map propagandists of all these doctrines seems to be world history map throwing-over of world history map Past; not merely of world history map proved evils and inadequacies of world history map Past, but of our conception of right and wrong, of morals, of human relations, and of our duty towards world history map Eternal, which, having sprung out of world history map Past, must be jettisoned in a fury of contempt. In short, world history map destroyers of Society (writhing under world history map immemorial sting of injustice, which they believed was wholly caused by their privileged fellows, <b> <A
