Governor Hadley will be in Chicago, Illinois next week to meet with Governor Stubbs, Governor Osborn, and others interested in Theodore Roosevelt’s presidential candidacy. In Missouri, the fight is on for delegates from the Third Congressional District, which Hadley believes is favorable to Roosevelt. However, some Roosevelt supporters are holding back for fear that Roosevelt will not agree to accept the nomination. He expects the primary in the Fifth District to favor Roosevelt. The North Dakota primary is on March 5 and Hadley encourages Roosevelt to reveal his intentions toward the nomination.
