Henry Cabot Lodge thinks that if something were to be done, it was done as best as it could be, but he is not sure it should have been done at all. He also thinks that Postmaster General George B. Cortelyou’s letter was admirable. Lodge liked the clipping Roosevelt sent him, and showed it to Senator Nelson W. Aldrich, who was amused.
