Letter from Albert J. Hopkins to Theodore Roosevelt

Senator Hopkins responds to a telegram from William Loeb which states that President Roosevelt wishes to know if Colonel Frank Leslie Smith’s appointment would be satisfactory to Charles Samuel Deneen. Hopkins discusses Smith’s qualifications and believes that Deneen “has no reason to be dissatisfied with the appointment.” Hopkins confesses that he did not consider how Deneen would respond to the appointment, arguing that he does not expect that Deneen will check with him about such appointments after Deneen is elected.
