William Davenport Hulbert received Theodore Roosevelt’s notes. He feels his first article does not have “enough snap and bang.” His second article deals with the Alaska Syndicate, and he thinks it would be more effective than the first. Hulbert encloses a letter from Fisher concerning the situation in Seattle, Washington, and his thoughts on James Rudolph Garfield and Gifford Pinchot. He comments on government ownership of Alaskan railroads.
