September 2, 1901 – On this date, “one of the most significant
dates in the Minnesota State Fair's history, then-Vice President Theodore
Roosevelt was visiting and first uttered the famous phrase, ‘Speak softly and
carry a big stick.’ Roosevelt became president just 12 days later after William
McKinley was assassinated.”
