Chief Executive Taft Guarded by Butte Police and Deputies
President Taft traveled through Butte under tight security with Chief of Police Jack Quinn and Sheriff Rourke directing a large mounted escort. Secret Service men accompanied Taft at every step, keeping crowds back from the car and escort routes while officers at the depot, speakers stand, and along the parade route ensured safety and order.
