Senator Lodge reassures Theodore Roosevelt that he is in good health, and comments on the state of the Republican party and the upcoming elections. Lodge comments that Roosevelt did a great deal of work holding the Republican party together. While the Western states will elect progressive Republicans, Eastern states may elect Democrats. Lodge regrets that Roosevelt had been drawn into an election contest in New York. Prospects for the Massachusetts Governor election do not look good, but Lodge thinks that he personally will be alright.
