Letter from Theodore Roosevelt to T. James Bowlker

Theodore Roosevelt writes about his desire to go to San Francisco by way of the Canadian Pacific Railway, but expects he cannot do so without stopping to make speeches all along the way, as he has already received numerous invitations. Roosevelt feels he must not speak in Canada because his critical views on the U.S. position on avoiding World War I would be unfavorable against his home country. He also references the labor union disputes in England.
