President Roosevelt informs Secretary of War Taft that Representative Nicholas Longworth will contact him regarding the attitude of the Roosevelt Club in Cincinnati, Ohio, which appears to have assumed “an utterly preposterous position.” In a postscript, Roosevelt mentions appointments in Panama. Additionally, Roosevelt comments on Taft speaking in one of the Rocky Mountain States.
