President Roosevelt is glad to hear what Charles A. Moore says about New York Governor Charles Evans Hughes. Roosevelt was open about his actions for William H. Taft, and Hughes could have read such information in any paper. He supports Hughes in New York, even if initially he felt the campaign lacked strength. For the success of both Taft and Hughes, remaining available spaces on the ticket should be filled with “straight organization men.”
