Representative Longworth informs President Roosevelt of his and Alice Roosevelt Longworth’s upcoming travel plans but says that he wants to be back in Ohio in the fall for the electoral campaign. He believes Secretary of War Taft’s campaign for the Republican nomination for President is going well, but Senator Foraker is still dangerous. Longworth mentions two men who would like to meet Roosevelt. One is Jackson Smith, a member of the Isthmian Canal Commission and head of the Department of Labor, Quarters, and Subsistence. The second is Julius Fleischmann, whose brother has just returned from a big game hunting expedition in Africa.
