Crowds gathered at the United States Capitol in Washington, D.C., on March 4, 1901, for the inauguration of President William McKinley. A temporary platform trimmed with American flags and patriotic bunting stood outside the Capitol as government officials, military officers, and invited guests assembled for the ceremony. Thousands of spectators filled the grounds to witness the public oath of office, a tradition that had long drawn citizens to the capital.
