Representative Fassett was delighted to see the Associated Press dispatch Theodore Roosevelt sent and reminds him that their association has been longer than twenty-five years. “On the general principle,” Fassett has agreed with Roosevelt, although he has differed in opinion regarding the method. One such current, yet minor, difference concerns the direct nomination. He congratulates Roosevelt on his recent speeches and the ticket that was nominated. Fassett asks about Roosevelt’s speaking schedule and instructs him to caution Henry L. Stimson from revealing too much during the first interview.
