President Roosevelt forwards a letter from David M. Goodrich to Attorney General Bonaparte concerning Henry K. Love’s appointment. In the future, Roosevelt wants portions of his and Bonaparte’s correspondence about men in power “to be published for the sake of the lovers of good literature!” In a postscript, Roosevelt instructs Bonaparte to remove Albert A. Richards, an apparent crook.
