Letter from Robert P. Bass to Theodore Roosevelt

Letter from Robert P. Bass to Theodore Roosevelt

Robert P. Bass tells Theodore Roosevelt about his new Republican challenger for the governorship of New Hampshire. Bertram Ellis, Bass’s opponent, has the support of the political machine and the railroad trusts. Bass believes that this is not bad, as it means “the issues will be clearly drawn and we shall have a thoroughly educational campaign whatever the final result may be.” He sends Roosevelt a copy of his platform on state issues, and plans to issue a statement on national issues in the future.
