Letter from Theodore Roosevelt to William E. Johnson
President Roosevelt appreciated the letter from William E. Johnson, and comments on the rejection of Grosvenor A. Porter as a candidate for the United States Marshal position in Oklahoma. Politicians who are hostile to Roosevelt thought they could antagonize him by rejecting Porter’s nomination, and are now also trying to hold up the nomination of Samuel G. Victor.
