Letter from G. A. Kratzer to Theodore Roosevelt

Subject(s): Haywood, Big Bill, 1869-1928, Moyer, Charles H., Pettibone, George A., 1862-1908, Presidents--Public opinion

Reverend Kratzer tells President Roosevelt that, although he usually agrees with his domestic policies, he initially thought Roosevelt was unfair in calling Charles H. Moyer, Big Bill Haywood, and George A. Pettibone “undesirable citizens.” However, having read the letter to William Henry Jackson which was just published, Kratzer now thinks that Roosevelt is within his rights.
