Ralph D. Harbison assures Theodore Roosevelt that he can win the Republican nomination as a Progressive candidate. Roosevelt can still win and President Taft will be defeated worse than when Horace Greeley ran for President because Roosevelt will certainly receive the vote of every progressive. Harbison’s only advice is that Roosevelt not include the word “reform” in the name of his new party.
