Letter from William Allen White to Theodore Roosevelt
William Allen White requests an inscription to be added to a copy of African Game Trails that will be given to White’s son, William Lindsay White. He has spent the summer working on a novel in Colorado. White does not believe that local politicians will support President Taft, as a Taft ticket will lose thousands of votes at the local level. He has seen a great deal of western support for Senator La Follette and Theodore Roosevelt but does not believe that La Follette’s nomination is feasible.
