Anna Roosevelt Cowles says the news about Ohio Senator Joseph Benson Foraker validates President Roosevelt’s feelings, and Justice William H. Moody thinks the situation will help William H. Taft. Ambassador to Brazil Edwin V. Morgan has commented on the recent political involvement of the wealthy. Cowles thinks Seth Low Pierrepont is qualified to enter the diplomatic service and she hopes Roosevelt will speak to him. Joe Alsop’s senate nomination and hard work have pleased Cowles. Mabel Boardman, who Cowles is visiting, is going to Washington for the tuberculosis congress in her usual hardworking spirit. She invites Ted Roosevelt to visit Farmington, though he might find it boring.
