William H. Noble believes that opposition is growing against President Roosevelt’s nomination as the Republican presidential candidate. Noble’s paper, the Galveston Times, supports Roosevelt but he needs to “reward his true friends by appointment to office.” He calls Roosevelt’s attention to a previous letter encouraging the appointment of “2 or 3 colored men.”
