Senator Lodge is glad President Roosevelt is going to write the letter he mentioned, and he agrees with the statement regarding the tariff that Roosevelt proposes putting in it. Lodge hopes that Attorney General William H. Moody will say something similar in Massachusetts, and mentions that he himself wrote something almost exactly the same recently. Lodge looks forward to reading the biography of Alexander Hamilton that Roosevelt sent him. He comments that he is printing a small volume of essays and speeches, and would like to include the small piece he wrote about Roosevelt, if Roosevelt does not mind.
