George Riker Bishop has been meaning to call on Theodore Roosevelt at The Outlook. He appreciated Roosevelt’s recent article in which he stated that men should be held morally responsible for misconduct just as women are. He comments on his political activity and laments the death of Tristram B. Johnson, who was a rising Republican star. Bishop would like to stop by and speak with Roosevelt when he has time.
