Text

Personal.
My dear Mr. Pulitzer

Now that the lobby investigation is over, I must give myself the pleasure of expressing my deep appreciation of the service rendered by the New York World in making available the extraordinary testimony of Mr. Mulhall which did so much to throw light in a hundred directions upon the methods which have been used to influence legislation. We are not unmindful, from day to day, of the great services which papers like your own render us in pushing forward the thing upon which all our minds are now concentrated.
Now for the currency. The influences which are working against it cannot be traced like the others, but they are very subtle and very powerful, and this is our opportunity to prove that we [have] the knowledge and the ability to set the business of the country free from the forces which have too long controlled it.

Cordially and sincerely yours,
Woodrow Wilson


Mr. Ralph Pulitzer,c-o New York World,
New York City.
