Letter from Theodore Roosevelt to William H. Moody

While president, Theodore Roosevelt owed the most to Elihu Root, Gifford Pinchot, and William H. Moody. Afterwards, Root sacrificed idealism for practicality and Pinchot sacrificed practicality for idealism. However, Moody’s views remained in “complete sympathy” with Roosevelt’s own. If Moody had not been appointed to the Supreme Court, his influence for “progress in the right direction” would have been the largest in the Roosevelt administration. Roosevelt wishes that Moody’s counsel, intelligence, and high purpose were influencing the current government.

Extract of letter from Theodore Roosevelt to William H. Moody

President Roosevelt wants to ensure that the legal rights of William D. Haywood and Charles Moyer are safeguarded and that “exact justice” is done. It has been suggested that they were extradited from Colorado in an unlawful manner and Roosevelt would like the pertinent information from the District Attorneys of Colorado and Idaho. Political pressure from the socialist and labor press will be strong in favor of acquittal, regardless of their actual guilt or innocence. The goal of federal authorities must be to “further the cause of justice.”
