Horace G. Knowles encloses two editorials from the North American, noting that the paper is “progressive with a big P.” President William H. Taft is lucky the paper is published in Philadelphia, but Knowles notes that Theodore Roosevelt is unfortunate it is not published in New York. Knowles is serving as U.S. Minister to Bolivia and has not been granted his request for a transfer, so he is returning to La Paz next week.
