    Did Poole do nothing but hang around outside that hotel with a camera photgraphing random mobs of suits?

    From the Irish Examiner on Tuesday, 6 August 1918...
    The twenty-fourth annual Irish Trades Union Congress was opened in the City Hall, Waterford, yesterday, under most encouraging and happy circumstances. There was a very large and representative attendance, about 240 delegates from every part of the country being present. The spacious hall was filled to its utmost capacity, and the proceedings were characterised by unanimity and enthusiasm. A civic welcome was extended to the delegates by Councillor Ml. Kirwan, locum tenens for the Mayor, who was absent owing to illness, and local speakers also extended greetings to the delegates. The Congress will occupy three days.

    The Day book., October 05, 1916, LAST EDITION, Image 27 chroniclingamerica.loc.gov/lccn/sn83045487/1916-10-05/ed-... indicates that she was one of three women standing for congress in November 1916. The Washington times., August 07, 1916, HOME EDITION, Image 1 chroniclingamerica.loc.gov/lccn/sn84026749/1916-08-07/ed-... indicates that she was the first woman ever nominated for Congress -- as a Democrat, in Kansas.
  • B-59 said:
    The report of the Washington Times that she was nominated as a Democrat was obviously wrong. She was defeated by Rev. H. J. Corwine, see The daily Missourian., August 07, 1916, Image 1, Col. 3 (with correction). According to Bismarck daily tribune., November 05, 1916, Image 16 she was candidate for congress on an independant ticket. According to Hopkinsville Kentuckian., February 19, 1916, Page 5, last column, she was a physician from Topeka, Kansas with a socialist schedule (opposing militarism, national prohibition, nationwide suffrage, mothers' pensions, recall of judges, old age pensions for those who deposit money for this purpose with the government, a national rural credits law for farm tenants, a tariff for revenue, government aid in road building and the construction of public works to control the flood waters of the Missouri and Mississippi Valleys) See also www.ourcampaigns.com/CandidateDetail.html?CandidateID=104654

    B-59: Welcome back! It's great to be able to load photographs again and have so much new information enrich the old photographs that survived with only bare-bones descriptions. For Dr. Harding, I wonder if both things are true -- she was initially nominated (and defeated) on the Democratic ticket (the Aug. 1916 news reports), then ran on her own as an Independent (the Nov. 1916 news)? Your reading of the November election conveys just how determined a person she was to speak out. -- Helena (LOC)
