Letter from Charles G. Washburn to Theodore Roosevelt
Charles G. Washburn writes to Theodore Roosevelt that it is unfortunate that he could not accept George F. Booth’s invitation, but also that Washburn and his wife, Caroline Vinton Slater Washburn, would be glad to accept Roosevelt’s luncheon invitation. Washburn then moves on to discuss politics, and is pessimistic about what will come from the Tariff Board. He also believes that “the people” misunderstand how manufacturers operate, and that it is important for the Tariff Board to protect the home market from large quantities of foreign goods. Washburn argues that President William H. Taft is making a grave mistake by forcing a proposition that would split the Republican Party.
