    nudecowboy: thank you for making the connection between these two images of Taft at the dedication of the Cleveland Tower at Princeton University in 1913. We will update the descriptions of the images.

Taft and Notification Comm. at Wh. House (LOC)

from The Library of Congress

  • Wystan said:
    The photo was taken at the White House in Washington, D. C., in June, 1912, when Taft was the incumbent President. This was his second experience of the notification ritual. The committee had traveled from the Republican National Convention in Chicago, where Taft had been nominated for a second term. In the era before a candidate attended the convention in person, this was his ceremonial acceptance of the nomination. But of course, Taft went down to defeat in November. Woodrow Wilson, the Democratic candidate, was victorious, and Theodore Roosevelt, leader of the Bull Moose Party, came in second. In the Bain Company files at LOC is a photo of Taft's 1908 notification, in Cincinnati (his home town) -- but LOC has not yet posted that photo on Flickr.

The many sided man who will, in all probability, be our next President (LOC)

from The Library of Congress

  • aware health said:
    Taft was running against William Jennings Bryan, if you wonder (as I did) why the paper was so confident in his chances.
