Taft Campaign Tour Dampened by Missouri Delays
Taft faced delays in Missouri as crowds gathered at stops, delaying the Taft special for over an hour in one city. He praised Missouri’s reception while noting Bryan’s stronger presence. Reports from Lincoln and Washington disputed rumors of Roosevelt campaigning for Taft and stressed the president’s stance on not taking the stump. Bryan denounced pension opposition claims, stating his platforms endorse liberal pensions. Local dry elections in three counties passed, with 56 saloons to close.
