Mr. Clark was politician, and unsuccessful candidate for Democratic nomination for President in 1912, losing to Woodrow Wilson. He was accused of being part of the corrupt machine politics of the age. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Champ_Clark Clark actually had the majority of the votes for the nomination, but did not get 2/3, which opened the door to Wilson. He looks pretty confident here though. Below is article about wild and woolly 3-way election of 1912. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Election_of_1912

Champ Clark is shown here at Sea Girt, New Jersey, bitterly disappointed and humiliated after the 1912 Democratic National Convention, in which he lost the party's Presidential nomination to Woodrow Wilson. Sea Girt, a resort town, was the location of the New Jersey "summer White House." Wilson, who was still the Governor of New Jersey, received visitors there while he mapped out the fall campaign. Clark was part of a delegation of Congressmen who came to Sea Girt to congratulate Wilson. Other Bain/LOC photos show Woodrow Wilson seated in the rocking chair beside Clark:
