Letter from Lawrence F. Abbott to Theodore Roosevelt

Subject(s): American newspapers, Campaign funds, Loeb, William, 1866-1937, Political campaigns, Public opinion, American

Lawrence F. Abbott thanks President Roosevelt for his letter and offers for himself or his father to speak with Roosevelt about campaign contributions. Abbott believes that recent criticism from the press about this topic is not shared by the public. He returns enclosures sent to him by William Loeb. He thanks Roosevelt for sharing information about a naval expedition and promises to include it in the next edition of The Outlook, as he feels it will be very interesting to their readers.
