Letter from Joseph Bucklin Bishop to Theodore Roosevelt

Subject(s): American newspapers

Bishop notes that he has dismissed the newspaper project he has been working on for a friend and desires to be of service to Roosevelt. He applauds Roosevelt for what he said to an opponent in the Evening Post office. He encourages Roosevelt not to “forgive that outfit,” stating that if Roosevelt did so, he could not forgive him and this would be the only ground that could cause them to part company.
