Letter from Thomas Goode Jones to Theodore Roosevelt
Judge Jones writes to President Roosevelt concerning a piece of legislation before the House Judicial Committee that would reapportion judicial districts in Alabama, causing Jones to lose some of the territory over which he currently has jurisdiction. Jones is unable to speak before the Committee in person and has learned of a plot to shorten the time he would have to respond to the bill in writing. Jones asks Roosevelt to ensure there will be enough time to make a reply.
