Editor of the Providence Journal, Frederick Roy Martin, responds to Charles J. Bonaparte’s criticism of the editorial entitled, “A Lamentable Naval Episode.” Martin notes that if Bonaparte’s “criticism of this editorial had been based upon fact” the paper would no doubt apologize to President Roosevelt. He advises Bonaparte to read the editorial in full.
