Winston Churchill informs William Loeb of the political situation in New Hampshire. After Churchill talks with President Roosevelt’s allies in the states he will give an update, but in the meantime editorials and letters are telling the President’s side of the story. George Moses, who supports Senator Gallinger and advocated for Frank A. Musgrove, will be in Washington this week, and Churchill warns Roosevelt to take care. Moses is editor of the Concord Monitor, an anti-Taft, pro-Gallinger paper, and is the brains of the New Hampshire delegation in Congress.

Winston Churchill is again writing William Loeb about the matter concerning selecting a new Pension Administrator for New Hampshire. Churchill believes that President Roosevelt’s “enemy” Senator Jacob H. Gallinger has intentionally nominated Richard W. Musgrove as a way to alienate his son Frank Abbott Musgrove, a staunch supporter of Roosevelt. Because of this conflict, Churchill suggests Charles Fairbanks as the ideal Pension Administrator and attaches a letter from Fairbanks for Loeb to forward to Roosevelt.
