Theodore Roosevelt explains how Mr. Van Norden feels it would be best if Mr. Colby could start writing editorials for them. Roosevelt mentions how Colby would be the opposition to the “very clever and very unscrupulous men” who currently write editorials in the Evening Post, the Sun, and the Times. Although Colby’s editorials would not substitute for Henry L. Stoddard’s, Colby would be able to reach “a class” that is only attracted to the Post, Sun, and Times.
