Letter from John A. Lewis to Theodore Roosevelt

John A. Lewis does not regret voting for President Roosevelt. Lewis congratulates Roosevelt on his handling of labor affairs and the Charles H. Moyer and Big Bill Haywood murder investigation. He is interested in Roosevelt’s stance on the over-capitalization of railroads and hopes that Roosevelt will extend those actions to telegraph companies, especially the Western Union. Lewis hopes that Roosevelt will remain in office and thinks that Roosevelt would receive many votes from Southerners.
