William H. Taft has asked the Kentucky lawyer William Marshall Bullitt to write to William Loeb regarding the situation with Internal Revenue Collector Edward T. Franks. Taft has visited Colorado and outlines the situation there for Loeb: Archibald McNichol Stevenson has attempted to manipulate both Chairman of the Republican City Organization John F. Vivian and Taft’s campaign manager Arthur I. Vorys, and he has advocated for the removal of Internal Revenue Collector Frank W. Howbert. Taft has had positive meetings with both Vivian and Governor Henry Augustus Buchtel. They will support whoever President Roosevelt supports.
