My dear Mr. President:
I have your letter of February 24th with its enclosure. I have read what you said to the Senate upon your taking the Chair, and it is so fine that I thank you for sending it to me and for giving me an opportunity to read it. It strikes a chord in my heart that responds to every word.
I have pleasure in sending you a little volume that has been published of ten lectures which I have delivered on Popular Government and also three addresses that I have made which are not included in the book, to file away, with the certainty that there is nothing in them which says as well as you have said it the truth with respect to government, but that there is also nothing in them which differs in spirit from that which you have said.
Sincerely yours,
William H. Taft
