Republicans In State Convention Open Letter From Carlisle
A Chicago-August 7, 1912 open letter from Charles A Carlisle of South Bend to Indiana Republicans recounts defeat for governor at the state convention in Indianapolis, praises Col. Winfield T. Durbin, and declares renewed party loyalty and support for the Durbin ticket. The piece notes Durbin’s nomination, a large crowd at Tomlinson Hall, and a platform endorsing Taft policies, county local option, and reform measures while citing other speakers and delegates. Durbin ultimately wins the gubernatorial nomination on the first ballot with Chaney, Shank, and Carlisle withdrawing.
