Letter from Gilson Gardner to Theodore Roosevelt

Gilson Gardner encloses clipping in a letter to Theodore Roosevelt, and states there is a “campaign of deliberate falsehood,” as the Washington Post and the Star are featuring similar content almost daily. Gardner thanks Roosevelt for denying “the lie carried out by the Associated Press.” He states a local paper editor in Greensburg, Pennsylvania, had also seen the story in the Associated Press that Roosevelt had endorsed William H. Taft’s nomination, and the editor had not seen Roosevelt’s denial.
