also very large, all became salaried

Prophets of the ordinary pollil al
stamp declared that Mr. Roosevelt never
could be re-elected after he had served
his first term.-his politics were much
too startling; but he was re-elected
twice serving the three terms of l 2,
1883,188~t. Moreover, his party grew
so fond; of him that it sent him to the
Republic in national convention at Chi-
cage in 1884. -e 1

without gloves and.wliile he was beaten,
he had the honor of receiving thevlar-
gest precentage of votes ever polled b
a Republican candidate for mayor un-
til Mayor Sirong came in.
During all of these years of intense
political activity. and long afterward
Mr. Roosevelt found opportunity-to
make half a hundred expeditions into ,
the wild heart of the West, to tiu-'n cow-
boy,ranchmau, and hunter of big game,
and to become more familiar, perhaps,
with the ‘-rugged and stalwart demcc-
racy" of the pioneer, frontiersman than
any other Eastern man. Here, is a han-
nel shirt, and overalls tucked into alli-
gator boots. he worked side by ‘side
with his cowboys during many an ex-
citing round-up, coming home to sleep
on be-at-skins and buffalo-robes, tro-
phies of his skill as a hunter.
In the intervals of hunting, ranching,
and politics. Mr. Roosevelt found oppor-
tunity to write voluminously on manv
different subjects. As might _have beeii
expected from his early reading, much
of his work has had to do with Ameri-
can history. Beginning with the "Naval
War of 1812,” which was written when
he was only twenty-three old, he has
produced: “The Winning ol the West,`*;i
a “Life of T. H. Benton,” a‘~Life of
Governor Morris," a “History of the
city of New York,” a series of hero
now engaged in collaboration with .
Captain A. T. Mahan,, on an extended
