Letter from Henry Cabot Lodge to Theodore Roosevelt
Senator Lodge writes to President Roosevelt from Germany regarding a letter published in American newspapers that Roosevelt wrote to Governor Durbin. Lodge thinks Durbin would make a good vice president candidate. Lodge agrees with Roosevelt’s recent stand on labor unions and government employment and assures him that while special interests may be unhappy, the American people will understand. General Miles will be trouble if put in charge of the army, but Lodge does not fear him as a political candidate.
