Theodore Roosevelt promises to investigate where William S. Cowles might go turkey shooting on his vacation, even though it will be late in the season. Roosevelt and Edith Roosevelt will leave for their sailing trip shortly; he is glad for a vacation from politics as he is disgusted with both Democrats and Republicans for not differentiating themselves from each other through their policies. Two of his books will be released next month.
