Teddy Roosevelt
-Teddy Roosevelt was President William
McKinley’s Vice-President representing the
Republican Party.
-Prior to this, he was governor of New York and
political bosses hated him because he cleaned
up corruption and pursued Progressive tactics.

him to be Vice-President, just to get him out of
New York and into a position that, supposedly,
had no power.

and died days later.

angered many big business leaders who did not like
TR’s Progressive tactics.

Spain’s Original Territorial
Claims Around the World
![Page 7: The Rise of Theodore Roosevelt - Us History Teachersushistoryteachers.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/08/02-The... · 2014-08-19 · Teddy Roosevelt -Teddy Roosevelt was President William](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022042909/5f3c055cb21ab212dd4d6a92/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
By 1898, Spain’s territorial claims had shrunk
dramatically. Many in the USA did not like that Spain
controlled Cuba and Puerto Rico, areas close to the
mainland of America.

Spain controlled
Cuba as a territory in
1898. Many
Americans did not
like that a European
power was
controlling an area
so close the
mainland of the USA.

Spain controlled Puerto Rico, which was
also close to the mainland of the USA.

The Spanish American War
-The Spanish American War occurred in
1898.The USA wanted Spain to give Cuba
independence.
-America was hesitant to use force to assist
Cuba, until the USS Maine was supposedly
“attacked” by Spain.
-The USS Maine was sunk, nobody knows how,
but Spain was blamed. After this, the USA
declared war against Spain and began to use
force to help Cuba gain independence.

The USS Maine
was sunk near
Cuba. Many
speculated it
was an accident;
yet, the USA
blamed Spain
and declared war
against them
due to this
incident.

TR and the Spanish American War
-The Rough Riders group was a horse cavalry led by
Teddy Roosevelt and they fought in the Spanish
American War in Cuba. Before TR was ever President,
he was a war hero from this conflict.
-The Rough Riders won the famous Battle at San
Juan Hill in Cuba. This made TR famous as the leader
of the group.
-The USA won the war and gained the Philippines,
Guam, and Puerto Rico. Many felt this was
inconsistent of America because the USA wanted Cuba
to gain independence, but took other territories from
Spain.

The Philippines, Guam, and Puerto Rico from
Spain. This contributed to the USA becoming an
imperial power.

TR’s Square Deal
-TR wanted laws to ensure the economy worked in a way to benefit the working class. He asserted all Americans deserved a square deal.
-TR felt many big businesses were pursuing economic tactics that damaged the working class’ ability to make a living wage.
-Monopolization and other tactics meant the wealthiest were increasing their riches, while the lower classes were making less money.

In this political cartoon,
TR is depicted as a lion
tamer. The lions have
different trust names,
such as the beef trust
and oil trust on their
backs and are walking
out of Wall Street.
This cartoon shows how
TR attacked big
business monopolies.

The Trustbuster
-The Sherman Anti-trust Act was supposed to stop monopolies from forming, but it was not enforced well.
-Teddy Roosevelt began to enforce the act to break up monopolies. In 1902, the justice department sued the Northern Securities Company for being a railroad monopoly.
-In 1904, the company was broken up and the Supreme Court ruled the justice department’s law suit was Constitutional.
