Letter from Theodore Roosevelt to Joseph Bucklin Bishop

Theodore Roosevelt explains to Joseph Bucklin Bishop that he did not betray what he said in confidence, but that he did not expect Senator Thomas Collier Platt to publish the explanation he gave him of the issue, and that Francis E. Leupp, “simply put two and two together.” He encourages Bishop’s plan to purchase the newspaper he is interested in, as although it would not influence New York much, it would have a national impact.
