Letter from Theodore Roosevelt to Nathan W. Hale
Representative Hale has “absolutely misunderstood” his conversation with President Roosevelt. Roosevelt has never told anyone that he would appoint whoever he and Representative Walter Preston Brownlow wanted. Even if Hale, Brownlow, and the entire Republican party supported a man, Roosevelt would not appoint him if he did not think he was competent and honest.

Letter from Theodore Roosevelt to Nathan W. Hale
President Roosevelt makes the point that he never told Representative Hale, Representative Walter Preston Brownlow, “or any human being” that he would do as they suggested, without adding that he would only do so if he believed that it was right. He suggests that Hale take the matter of appointments up with Brownlow to see what they can agree on.
