Excerpt from Yale's Relation to the Development of the Country: Address; At the Yale Bicentennial Celebration New Haven, Connecticut, October 22, 1901
The great work of pacifying the Philippine Islands and bringing them under beneficial civil government and, let us hope, preparing them for self-government under conditions most favorable to liberty, has very wisely been assigned to a distinguished graduate of Yale, Hon. Will iam H. Taft of the Class of 1878. Judge Taft has done so well whatever he has undertaken to do, and has al ready so far succeeded in bringing order out of chaos in the Philippines, as to inspire the utmost confidence in his ultimate complete success, and to awaken a consciousness in the nation that he may, at some time, be called to fill a higher position than he has yet attained.

Excerpt from Yale's Relation to the Development of the Country: Address; At the Yale Bicentennial Celebration New Haven, Connecticut, October 22, 1901
Mr. President, Brethren of Yale, Ladies and Gentlemen:
The subject assigned to me, "Yale in its Relation to the Development of the Country," is too large for adequate consideration in a brief address. I shall omit all allusion to the moral and industrial development and confine my remarks to a very brief consideration of Yale's relation to the political development of the country, and a somewhat more extended review of Yale's relation to the educational development.
While Yale men have gone largely into politics and have done manly service in the ranks, and while many of them have attained to distinguished positions to which they have done honor and in which they have been influential, it is not easy to say to what extent the political policy of our country has been influenced directly by Yale. The College had four graduates in the convention which framed our National Constitution, William Samuel Johnson, William Livingston, Jared Ingersoll, and Abraham Baldwin, all of them good and able men. It has today three members of the Supreme Court of the United States: David Josiah Brewer, Henry Billings Brown, both of the Class of 1856, and George Shiras of the Class of 1853.
