Victor Rosewater has called the Douglas County Republican convention with only four days notice so that conservative Republicans can appoint people from their own ranks to be the Douglas County delegates to the Nebraska state convention. Representative Norris will write to Robert Beecher Howell, a member of the Republican National Committee, so that a “genuine” convention and selection of state delegates can take place. He requests that Theodore Roosevelt also write to Howell.
