Letter from Theodore Roosevelt to Albert Shaw

President Roosevelt debates Dr. Albert Shaw in an ongoing dispute over whether or not Roosevelt said that Cyrus Packard Walbridge is a better man than Joseph Wingate Folk. Both are candidates for Governor of Missouri. Roosevelt asks that Shaw have Colllier’s magazine retract Shaw’s letter. Roosevelt says he could not have made the statement as he does not know enough about either man to compare them. Shaw should state that Roosevelt supports the Republican ticket in all states, but has and will not make any personal comparisons either for or against Walbridge or Folk.
