Senator Hayward a ;
Teacher, Laborer j

__ I ^
Arrived Same Year
State Admitted
.
Monroe L. Hayward, elected io
the Unned States senate by the
legislature on March 8, 1899, died
December 5, 1899, before he had
qualified. Though cut off just as
he was about to climax his ca- j
rear, Senotor Hayward, who came
to Nebraska the year the state
was admitted to the union, was i
closely identified with the de
veloping years of the new state.
He was bom in Willsboro,
N. Y., December 22, 1840. He
spent his boyhood on his father’s j
farm, securing his education i n
the community’s common schools
with an occasional term at pri
vate schools. In common with
many other young Americans, he
enlisted for duty in the Civil war. |
He saw active service in the
Shenandoah valley and so under
mined his health that he had to
be discharged from the army*
because of disability. Upon his
return from the wars, young
Monroe Hayward— again in the
pattern of many of his ambitious
contemporaries — struggled to
complete his education. He work
ed his way through Ft. Edward
institute by teaching school, serv
ing as a bookeeper, and doing
manual labor.
Upon graduation, he read
law, completing his legal stud*
ies at Whitewater, Wis. He was
admitted to the bar in 1867, and
then came out to the new
state of Nebraska
Young Hayward settled per
manently at Nebraska City. For
many years he was a member of
that community’s board of educa
tion, and in 1875 he served as a
delegate to the state constitution
al convention. He was active in
the affairs of the Republican par
ty and served several times as
chairman of its state conven
tions. In 1898 he won the Republi
can nomination for governor. He
campaigned actively, speaking in
almost every organized county in
the state, but went down to defeat
at the hands of W. A. Poynter,
fusionist candidate.
Though the fusionists won the
governorship and other state
offices, they lost the legislature.
'Hie Republican majority in leg
islature was badly divided, and it
took two months of acrimonious
debate for them to unite on a suc
cessor to Populist Senator Wil
liam V. Allen. They finally
agreed on Mr. Hayward. When he
died before qualifing, Governor
Poynter appointed Senator Allen
to serve until the legislature
could select a successor to Sen
Ltor Hayward.
Senator Hayward’s son, CoL
Villiam Hayward, also achieved
freat renoun, and among other
hings is famous as the first man
n Nebraska to own a “horseless
:arriage”. His grandson, Leland
dayward, is one of America’s
nost famous theatrical producers.
Mr. and Mrs. Dale Buckmaster
and Virginia of Fremont spent
the weekend visiting in the home
af Mr. and Mrs. Wayne Norman
and their son, Garry, who is here
attending school.
