Letter from John Appleton Stewart to Theodore Roosevelt
John Appleton Stewart has received information from a friend in publishing that many copies are already circulating of the pamphlet “The Roosevelt Panic of 1907” and Chancellor James Roscoe Day’s book The Raid on Prosperity. Large sums of money are being spent on disparaging advertising in magazines such as Business Men’s Magazine of Chicago. Stewart’s friend also left him a copy of Francis A. Adams’s book on Roosevelt, and asked for editorial advice. The New York Press refers to Stewart as a “third termer,” to which he takes exception. If he is in Washington, D.C., he would like to bring the publisher friend to speak to Roosevelt in person.
