A. H. Ackley letter to Warren G. Harding, December 24, 1919
Dated December 24, 1920, in this letter, A. H. Ackley of Yorktown, Virginia, congratulates Warren G. Harding on his decision to run in the 1920 presidential election. Ackley notes that he supports Harding's campaign, largely due to Harding's efforts contributing to Ackley's son's discharge from Camp Sherman during or shortly after World War I. He concludes by remarking that democratic frontrunners Ohio Governor James Cox and Senator Altee Pomerene are not in his class.
This letter is part of the Warren G. Harding Papers (MSS 345). This collection includes correspondence, business records, and other materials documenting Harding’s business career as owner and editor-in-chief of The Daily Marion Star, as well as the various stages of his political career. A significant portion of the collection, and what’s available on Ohio Memory, highlights his 1920 presidential campaign, spanning just before publicly announcing his candidacy to handily defeating Ohio Governor James M. Cox in the election. Correspondents include both Ohio and national businessmen, political figures, and ordinary citizens writing with questions, support, congratulatory notes, and campaign advice. Some of the most interesting insights into the tumultuous political climate in the U.S., the extreme factionalism within the Republican Party in Ohio, and Harding’s campaign strategies are described in letters between Harding and his campaign manager, Harry M. Daugherty. Some of the topics addressed include women’s suffrage, Prohibition, the League of Nations, African American representation and issues, and lingering peace negotiations following World War I
