Letter from Theodore Roosevelt to Anna Roosevelt Cowles

President Roosevelt asks his sister, Anna Roosevelt Cowles, to inform Justine Bayard Ward that he never said he approved of Cabot Ward for a position on the Philippine Commission, and he did not ask William H. Taft to appoint him. Cabot Ward does not have the experience to warrant putting him on the commission, and seats on the commission are not positions for which someone can apply. At present there are not many opportunities for a position in South America, but Roosevelt thinks that is something for which Ward could apply. Roosevelt mentions that the biography of him by Francis E. Leupp seems to him the best of its kind.

Letter from Regis Henri Post to Theodore Roosevelt

Puerto Rico Governor Beekman Winthrop has instructed Puerto Rico Secretary of State Post to open his mail while he is absent. This is how Post came to open President Roosevelt’s letter regarding the appointment of George Cabot Ward to a post on the island. Post knows Ward and says he is “the kind of Catholic [Roosevelt] ought to send down here.” Ward’s appointment would interfere with Post’s plans for Tom Jett, but if Jett cannot have the position, Ward should. Post believes that Winthrop is the one who should be consulted.
