President Roosevelt thinks that Howard Pyle’s letter is admirable. It has been difficult for Roosevelt not to respond to Democratic presidential candidate Alton B. Parker’s allegations, since it is a matter of record that Roosevelt asked many other people to serve as the chairman of the National Republican Committee before selecting George B. Cortelyou. Roosevelt hopes Pyle will not get in trouble, and feels like he should not let him take part in the current presidential campaign, but he appreciates everything that Pyle has done.
