EDITORS COMMENTS
This striking photograph captures Col. John I. Martin, the Sergeant-At-Arms of the Democratic National Convention in 1912. The image, created by Harris & Ewing, showcases Martin in full uniform, exuding a sense of authority and confidence as he stands before a backdrop of American flags. Col. John I. Martin was a prominent figure in the Democratic Party during the early 20th century. Born in Pennsylvania in 1862, he served in the Spanish-American War and rose through the ranks to become a colonel in the U.S. Army. In 1912, he was appointed as the Sergeant-At-Arms of the Democratic National Convention, a role that involved maintaining order and security during the convention proceedings. The photograph was taken during a pivotal moment in American political history. The Democratic Party was in the midst of selecting its nominee for the upcoming presidential election, and the convention was a hotbed of political intrigue and debate. Martin's presence as the Sergeant-At-Arms underscores the importance of the convention and the role of lawmakers and legislators in shaping the country's future. This photograph is part of the Harris & Ewing Collection at the Library of Congress, which includes over 200,000 glass negatives and 15,000 prints. The collection is a valuable resource for historians, researchers, and anyone interested in American history and politics. The image is a testament to the rich history of the Democratic Party and the important role that individuals like Col. John I. Martin played in shaping the country's political landscape.
