Anna Roosevelt Cowles writes to her brother, President Roosevelt, about the political situation in Connecticut. In particular, she has recently seen Judge Marcus H. Holcomb, who is satisfied with the action of the state convention, especially in regard to how the Senators were handled. Cowles has joined the Grange, and tells Roosevelt that he would have been amused to see the reaction of the members of her household.
