In a similar description, Gomez was characterized as a patriot, a
commoner, and an ardent nationalist who "measures up to the standard
of Porfirio Diaz." William Hemmingway, "To-morrow in Cuba," Harp
er's Weekly, LIII (March 20, 1909), 24-25. - Havana Post, January 29, 1909. Magoon never again held office,
presumably because of ill health. Living frugally in Washington, he was
on cordial social terms with the Roosevelts, Tafts, and Wilsons. Though
there was some talk of his appointment to Taft's cabinet, he would
not have been a political asset. He died on January 14, 1920, following
an appendix operation. - "Report of the Army of Cuban Pacification," U.S. War Depart
