Abbott, Ernest Hamlin

Ernest Hamlin Abbott, editor of The Outlook, compares the Abbott family to the Republican Party in that both “can present a united front . . . but still be torn with internal strife.” Abbott has already shown President Roosevelt’s letter to his brother Lawrence F. Abbott, and will try to show it to his father, Lyman Abbott, when he returns from a trip. He jokes that “it will be useless for [him] to try to induce Lyman Abbott, 2nd,” Lawrence F. Abbott’s newborn son, to read Roosevelt’s letter.  Ernest Hamlin Abbott and his brother Lawrence Abbott “like immensely” Roosevelt’s Provincetown speech and feel it will positively impact national views on controlling corporations.

Ernest Hamlin Abbott informs President Roosevelt that The Outlook contains an editorial paragraph on the Brownsville incident based on Roosevelt’s message and Senator Joseph Benson Foraker’s bill in the senate. Apart from noting the ineffectiveness of Foraker’s bill, The Outlook does not discuss the bill at length. Abbott has noticed that the current situation is frequently misrepresented in spite of Roosevelt’s statement of fact in his message, but observes that this frequently pushes public opinion in favor of Roosevelt.
