Letter from Anson G. P. Dodge to Theodore Roosevelt

Subject(s): Dodge, W. E. (William Earl), 1832-1903, Elections, Illinois--Danville, Roosevelt, Theodore, 1831-1878, Voting

Anson G. P. Dodge has been a supporter of Theodore Roosevelt for some time, and now asks for his help in electing a Progressive Republican to represent his area. If Roosevelt could put him in contact with someone locally who would be able to help, or come to Danville, Illinois to speak, Dodge feels that it would help rally voters to his cause.
