The page presentation framework of the Booker T. Washington papers is designed to provide researchers worldwide with searchable access to the thousands of pages comprising the fourteen volumes, most of which are out of print. Adapted from the National Academy Press's Open Book framework, this framework allows searching down to the page level, provides sorting of search results chronologically, enables easy navigation across multiple volumes, and allows page-by-page local printing (via PDF) of every page.

FEBRUARY . 1 gag partment of State at Washington is facing, but, as I have said, your letter will have very careful consideration. I am glad to hear that your health is improving and that you and Mrs. Fortune are at Red Bank. Yours very truly, Booker T. Washington] TLc Con. 45 BTW Papers DLC. ~ Isaiah Benjamin Scott. To MaucI Nathan ''Tuskegee, Ala.] February 2, 1909 My dear Mrs. Nathan: In reply to your letter of January Seth, I am enclosing you a copy of a statement recently made by me in the New York Times. I did not realize, when I ventures] to express this opinion, that I was getting into something dangerously like a political controversy or even that I was ''opposing woman suffrage.'' If I had done so, I should perhaps have hesitated to express an opinion upon a matter which, it seems to me must be left in the last analysis to the decision of women themselves. Yours very truly, Booker T. Washington TLpSr Con. 896 BTW Papers DLC. Signed in Emmett I. Scott's hand. To Emmett Jay Scott Mt. Pleasant, Mich. February I, ~ gag Dear Mr. Scott: In your own way, I think it might not be a bad plan for you to advise Mr. Rucker to stick pretty closely to Clark Howell. I have an idea that it is a possible thing that he may go into Mr. Taft's cabinet, although no one has told me so directly. Yours truly, B. T. W. TLI Con. 187 BTW Papers DLC. 25
