The behavior of the White House staff and of Benjamin F. Barnes is highly criticized. The author also criticizes President Roosevelt, calling him “Czar Roosevelt” and claiming that anyone who disagrees with him is subject to this type of treatment. Furthermore the writer states that “such proceedings have no rival in any country but Russia.”
