Assistant Treasurer at St. Louis Thomas J. Akins informs President Roosevelt that he has complied with Roosevelt’s recent letter regarding the letter from Dr. Albert Shaw, and that the letters will not be published. Akins tells Roosevelt that he has worked to guard the interests of the Republican party during the present election, and believes that Roosevelt should have no problems winning a national victory. He hopes that his actions have been enough to add Missouri’s electoral votes to Roosevelt’s total, and feels that the Republican Party is in a better position in Missouri now than it has been in the past.
