Governor Hadley is opposed to Governor Stubbs’ suggestion of Theodore Roosevelt engaging in a general speaking campaign. He would like to see Roosevelt move away from campaigning on the issue of the recall of judges, and he suggests other issues that Roosevelt could campaign with, including the tariff, business regulation, direct presidential primaries, and the “question of World-Wide Peace.”
