Letter from John B. Martin to Theodore Roosevelt
John B. Martin praises Theodore Roosevelt’s leadership and work to improve the civic health of the country, but wonders why he does not take a stronger stance against liquor and for prohibition. Martin describes his own experience working in politics as a prohibitionist candidate, and believes that if Roosevelt agreed to run for president as a prohibitionist, he would be very successful.
