United States Secretary of the Interior in the Wilson Administration, serving from 1913-1920. Best known for overseeing the formation of the National Park Service. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Franklin_Lane
Richard Norton said:
This is one of the few times that Bain copyrighted one of his images. I think he did it to the photos that he thought had the most commercial potential and would be republished. This tranche of photos are from around 1915. Images published or distributed in the United States between 1923 and 1977 without a copyright notice are in the public domain.

Many news historians are now recognizing the Bain News Service's impact and influence on black history in the US. The BNS was one of the first news companies in the country to photograph black Americans in a humane light. We tend to forget that, not too long ago, black Americans were rarely portrayed in photographs, broadcasts or motion pictures as anything but savage brutes or circus clowns.

Albert Sydney Burleson was postmaster general, appointed by Wilson, whose inauguration this seems to be. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Albert_S._Burleson Click on Burleson tag and you will find a famous suffragette. A relation? (she was "married to an army officer" according to one NYTimes article). Franklin Lane was Secy of the Interior for Wilson: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Franklin_Lane
