Letter from Dwight B. Heard to Theodore Roosevelt

Dwight B. Heard received Theodore Roosevelt’s letter and assures him that the progressive element of the Republican party in Arizona will be guided by the common sense he suggested in drafting a constitution. He was selected as a delegate to the convention and encloses a copy of his platform. The Democrats strongly favor the initiative, referendum, and recall, whereas the Republicans do not. Heard asks Roosevelt for comments on the matter. John P. Orme authorized Heard to defer opening the Roosevelt Dam until June.
