Theodore Roosevelt might have known that Flavel Sweeten Luther would have approved of his article in the Times. Roosevelt plans to quote Luther’s letter in an article on which he is working. Roosevelt appreciates the last paragraph of the letter, in which Luther says that his relations to the rising generation made it improper for him to fully express himself about the election. Roosevelt got over the difficulty by quoting the Bible, which he considers an ever-present help in that kind of time of trouble.
