Washington in 1912 is the setting here, with Theodore Roosevelt as the subject, though the record gives no further detail about the occasion. The title comes from caption cards made by the Bain News Service and has not been independently verified. Roosevelt had left the presidency in 1909, and in 1912 he broke with the Republican Party and ran on the Progressive ticket, a campaign that split the Republican vote and helped elect Woodrow Wilson. Bain's glass negatives from this period offer a useful record of how such public figures appeared in the capital.
