Letter from Joseph Benson Foraker to Theodore Roosevelt

Letter from Joseph Benson Foraker to Theodore Roosevelt

Senator Foraker writes Vice President Roosevelt about the implications of currency-related matters in future elections. The Democrats are divided on the issue of silver currency, with William Jennings Bryan facing off against “Gold Democrats.” Foraker believes that this situation could gain some votes for the Republicans. Foraker will try to get General Dick, Governor Hook, and Senator Hoar to praise Roosevelt in connection with important meetings and places, and asks Roosevelt to let him know if he has any particular time and place in mind for such meetings or recognition.
