Theodore Roosevelt writes to Henry Cabot Lodge about his concerns regarding the butchers’ strike and the Colorado matter. Roosevelt acknowledges that Alton Parker made a skillful political maneuver by coming out in favor of the gold standard during the last moments of the Democratic Convention, and Roosevelt reviews his political strategy for the rest of the campaign.
