Letter from Theodore Roosevelt to Francis E. Leupp

President Roosevelt forwards to Commissioner of Indian Affairs Leupp a letter that William H. Taft received from Egbert J. DeBell. DeBell seems to be trying to blackmail Taft, perhaps seeking to have his license as an Indian Trader reinstated. Roosevelt believes that what DeBell has claimed is a total fabrication, and that if he is found on any reservation, he should be forced out.
