Senator Lodge would like Charles S. Mellen to publicly support him by saying that he is in favor of Lodge’s reelection. Lodge also requests that Mellen not oppose Senator Munro. Lodge notes that Eugene N. Foss and Henry M. Whitney have raised a considerable amount of money for the upcoming campaign. Although he does not believe they can do him “any great harm,” they have involved him in work that he did not think it would be necessary to do. Lodge thanks President Roosevelt for his kindness in regard to George L. Cain.
