Letter from Theodore Roosevelt to Charles J. Bonaparte

Letter from Theodore Roosevelt to Charles J. Bonaparte

President Roosevelt directs Attorney General Bonaparte to carefully look into the matter of the Anaconda smelter before proceeding with any suits. It has been suggested that if a suit against the Anaconda smelter were successful, then the copper industry in Montana as a whole would be ruined and there would be massive unemployment. Roosevelt says that while the suit will be brought on environmental grounds, they need to find out if they would cause more economic destruction by the suit being successful. The case is especially important because of its implications for similar situations across the country.
