Letter from Edwin S. Conway to William Loeb

Subject(s): Illinois--Chicago, Meat industry and trade, Presidents--Public opinion, Roosevelt, Theodore, 1858-1919

Edwin S. Conway has felt occasionally that he has been referring too many things to President Roosevelt, but explains to William Loeb that the reason for this is that he holds Roosevelt in high regard and is anxious to see Roosevelt’s policies carried out. Conway has had “some pretty warm battles” with bankers and magnates who side with the meat packers against Roosevelt, but is optimistic about the reforms that Roosevelt will be able to accomplish.
