Letter from Benjamin F. Howell to Theodore Roosevelt
Howell calls Theodore Roosevelt’s attention to John Kenneth Turner’s article “Barbarous Mexico,” describing the “most horrible conditions of slavery” in the “so called Republic.” He argues that if the United States was morally right to interfere on behalf of the oppressed Cubans, there is a greater imperative to intercede in Mexico.
