Letter from Theodore Roosevelt to Charles J. Bonaparte
President Roosevelt tells Attorney General Bonaparte he has been advised that district attorneys should steer clear of having clients involved in the alcohol business as it will put them in close contact with undesirable individuals. This is in response to northern Texas District Attorney William Hawley Atwell’s connection with the Sonnentheil-Holbrook Grocery Company.
