Letter from Nicholas Murray Butler to Theodore Roosevelt
Nicholas Murray Butler writes President Roosevelt concerning two topics. The first is the choice of a new judge to preside over the Oregon Land Fraud case after the death of the District Judge. Butler recommends Judge Hanford from the Washington District. Secondly, Butler informs Roosevelt Senator Dolliver will support Roosevelt’s railway rate program. Butler also assures Roosevelt that if Senator Millard’s vote can be changed Roosevelt will have majority support among Republicans for the program.
