Letter from Theodore Roosevelt to John F. O’Brien

President Roosevelt informs New York Secretary of State O’Brien that Daniel W. Moran’s appointment as postmaster was a recess appointment, and thus his name will still have to be put before the Senate. Roosevelt did not know there was opposition to Moran until he received O’Brien’s letter. If Senator Thomas Collier Platt objects to Moran, Roosevelt is sure the Senate will not confirm him.
