Letter from Henry Cabot Lodge to Theodore Roosevelt

Letter from Henry Cabot Lodge to Theodore Roosevelt

Senator Lodge addresses the letter that Senator Hoar sent to President Roosevelt, wherein he expressed his displeasure at Roosevelt’s choice of Oliver Wendell Holmes, Jr., for the Supreme Court. Lodge dismisses Hoar’s complaints about a recess appointment, not being formally consulted on the matter, and about Holmes’s legal credentials. Attorney General Moody, Hosea Morrill Knowlton, and Richard Olney believe Holmes a good choice. Lodge supports Roosevelt’s choice and believes Hoar will calm down in time. Finally, Lodge says that Moody has informed him about the problems with Catholics, and he does not believe that the problem will become widespread among voters or the press.
