Letter from J. G. Wood to Philander C. Knox
J. G. Wood discusses the selection and appointment of judges for the United States District Court of Kansas. Wood notes two factions of the Republican party in Kansas, one led by Cyrus Leland, the other those opposed to “bossism.” Wood mentions a dispatch meant for Washington, D.C., sent by Dell Keizer of the Daily Herald of Topeka. He also admonishes Charles B. Smith while praising United States District Attorney John S. Dean of Kansas.
