Letter from Henry Cabot Lodge to Theodore Roosevelt
Senator Lodge has received the very incriminating newspapers covering the situation between Ohio Senator Joseph Benson Foraker and John D. Archbold. Although it is distressing to see such an outcome for a politician, it also validating due to Foraker’s actions against President Roosevelt and William H. Taft. Lodge wonders what effect it will have on the public view of the Brownsville affair, on the presidential campaign, and on Governor Charles Evans Hughes. Being on Nantucket has been good for Lodge’s health after a stretch of exhaustion and a cold.
