Theodore Roosevelt’s secretary thanks L. Rinther for his letter to Roosevelt. He agrees with Rinther that the corrupt practices of John D. Archbold and others are scandalous, trying to buy influence over Roosevelt by offering support for his campaign. Such actions have hurt those attempting them more than they have harmed Roosevelt.
