Joseph Pulitzer letter to [S.E.] Moffett [manuscript], no year January 23.

Pulitzer thanks Moffett for his books and letter and urges him to continue adding "there is nothing I like better than to be corrected when wrong". He is not persuaded by Moffett's figures, as he ignored the total vote cast for Low; and Van Wyck's plurality. Pulitzer asks him to look up the total vote cast for Cunneen and for Judge Grey of the Court of Appeals, and to present these figures in a short editorial, without committing the paper. He also requests the total vote for Cleveland in 1892.
