Letter from Theodore Roosevelt to William Roscoe Thayer

Letter from Theodore Roosevelt to William Roscoe Thayer

Theodore Roosevelt is doing all he can against the Ship Purchase Bill, and he believes President Wilson is the worst president since President Buchanan, not excepting President Andrew Johnson. Roosevelt says William Roscoe Thayer can use anything he has said about John Hay, as long as he is allowed to look it over first. Roosevelt is looking forward to Thayer’s visit and also enjoyed his article in Harper’s.

Letter from Theodore Roosevelt to Nicholas Murray Butler

Letter from Theodore Roosevelt to Nicholas Murray Butler

President Roosevelt responds to a letter from Nicholas Murray Butler that had criticized Roosevelt’s recent message to Congress. Roosevelt was not surprised by the letter, as Butler had been moving away from Roosevelt’s policies for the past year or two. While Roosevelt’s message did upset some people, he says that his real supporters have strongly supported it, and that he has received many letters to that effect. Roosevelt believes that he has done the right thing in speaking out against corruption in politics and business.

Letter from Theodore Roosevelt to Sereno Stansbury Pratt

Letter from Theodore Roosevelt to Sereno Stansbury Pratt

President Roosevelt appreciated Sereno Stansbury Pratt’s recent Wall Street Journal article. Pratt responded to a letter from George Brinton McClellan Harvey which suggested that following tension between Roosevelt and Republican leaders in the Senate, Roosevelt’s popularity would wane by the end of his second term. Roosevelt assures Pratt that he is not concerned with his personal popularity, but rather with doing what is good for the country.

Letter from Theodore Roosevelt to John Hay

Letter from Theodore Roosevelt to John Hay

President Roosevelt agrees with Secretary of State Hay that the Parker Constitution Club is the “most absurd feature” of the Democratic Party’s presidential campaign. Roosevelt encloses a cartoon that he thinks will amuse Hay. He also worries that the New York governorship race might swing the state’s electoral votes to the Democrats.

Letter from Theodore Roosevelt to Nicholas Murray Butler

Letter from Theodore Roosevelt to Nicholas Murray Butler

President Roosevelt wishes for Nicholas Murray Butler to visit and concurs that William J. Calhoun is worthy of esteem. Roosevelt comments at length on an article in Collier’s Weekly, one he assumes was written by Norman Hapgood, and desires Butler to “know the exact facts.” On careful reading, Roosevelt believes the article was written with malicious intent due to its numerous falsehoods regarding the construction projects at the Capitol and the White House, the hiring of the architects completing these jobs, appointments of others to government posts, and other matters. In his explanation, Roosevelt makes analogies to many political situations, past and present.

Letter from Henry Cabot Lodge to Theodore Roosevelt

Letter from Henry Cabot Lodge to Theodore Roosevelt

Senator Lodge responds to a note from President Roosevelt, urging him to vote for Senator Borah’s bill regarding the Children’s Bureau. Lodge explains he has always supported the bill and will vote for it, and he does not understand why Borah thought it necessary to apply to Roosevelt to appeal to him.

A handwritten postscript critiques the diary of Gideon Welles, former secretary of the navy for the United States. The more Lodge reads of the diary, the less he thinks of it, as it reveals the true nature of its author and the “evil influence” he had over President Johnson.

Letter from Harvey W. Compton to Theodore Roosevelt

Harvey W. Compton sends Theodore Roosevelt an article that he feels expresses the truth regarding the political situation in Ohio. He believes that President William H. Taft stands no chance of securing an Ohio delegation to the next national convention.

Letter from John Carter Rose to Theodore Roosevelt

Letter from John Carter Rose to Theodore Roosevelt

John Carter Rose was interested in a statement that President Roosevelt said to him recently, that he was “successful in a larger portion of what [he] set out to do than any of [his] predecessors.” Rose considers all the previous presidents, and ultimately draws the comparison down to George Washington and Abraham Lincoln. Washington, Rose writes, made the nation, Lincoln preserved it, and Roosevelt has caused it to adapt to twentieth century conditions. He praises the various policies that Roosevelt has instituted during his term in office.
