No Trust Money in Teddy's Fight
Former Senator Nathan B. Scott told the senate committee that no corporate gifts or Harvester money reached Roosevelt's 1904 campaign. He cited his own contribution of about 30,000 to 40,000 and George W. Perkins giving 15,000, both for West Virginia state politics. He said Perkins contributed personally and noted the committee's policy against corporate gifts.
