    "President Woodrow Wilson appointed Bainbridge Colby as his third Secretary of State on March 23, 1920. He was confirmed by the Senate and entered into duty the same day. Colby served until the end of the Wilson administration, leaving office on March 4, 1921."

    "Bainbridge Colby (December 22, 1869 – April 11, 1950) was an American lawyer, a political progressive, a co-founder of the United States Progressive Party and Woodrow Wilson's last Secretary of State. Colby was a Republican until he helped co-found the National Progressive Party in 1912; he ran for multiple offices as a member of that party, but always lost."

    It seems he was the managing director of the People's Institute in New Your City. Here is a book he wrote: books.google.com/books?hl=en&id=xZcXAAAAYAAJ&dq=C...

    Charles Sprague Smith (1853-1910?) founded the People's Institute of New York City in 1897. The Institute presented public forums on current issues, and the consequent "forum movement" it inspired eventually expanded to more than 100 locations, mostly in the northeastern United States. Later, the Institute was also involved in opening social centers, usually at public schools, and it organized a school for community workers. The People's Institute closed in 1934. Smith had been a professor at Columbia University, and was the author of several books, including a 1908 volume of poetry. For a Progressive activist, his verse was remarkably old fashioned. In addition to the book of poetry and the book linked by cecilacase above, his 1903 volume on four Barbizon school painters is available from Google Books, as is his anthologized essay on the Spanish legend of El Cid.
