Paddock, who served two terms as United States Senator from Nebraska (1875-’81, 1887-’93), was one of that dis tinguished group of territorial pioneers who came to Nebraska as young men and who occupied positions of prominence in the territory and state throughout their lives. He arrived at Omaha in May, 1857, coming up the river by steamboat. He was then a young man of 26, having been born in Glens Falls, N.Y., November 9, 1830. He had attended Union col lege, taught school and studied law. Young Paddock pre-empted a farm near Ft. Calhoun, but spent most of his time in Omaha, serving for a while as an edi torial writer for the Omaha Re publican. His strong anti-slavery views and evident ability soon won him a position of leadership in the newly bom republican party. He was a delegate to the convention, which nominated Abraham Lin coln in 1860, and the next year— largely through the influence of his friend, Secretary of State Wil liam H. Seward—was appointed secretary of Nebraska territory, a post he held until Nebraska be ccune a siaitr. Mr. Padock ran for senate when, Nebraska entered the union, but was defeated by Gen. John M. Thayer. In 1875, however, he won that honor, succeeding Thomas Tipton. He was defeated in 1881 by Charles H. Van Wyck, but six years later defeated Van Wyck in, the contest before the legislature. Senator Paddock tried for a third term in 1893 but was defeated by William V. Allen. During the in terval between his two terms in the senate, Mr. Paddock served as a member of the Utah commis sion. Senator Paddock brought to his task an intimate knowledge of Nebraska and the West based on long experience. As secre tary of Nebraska leritory, he had been active in raising troops for the Union cause and in pro viding for the defense of the frontier. As senator, he exercised his great ability unstintingly in be half of Nebraska’s interests. He secured the first river and harbor appropriation for Nebraska, was instrumental in retaining the headquarters of the department of the Platte at Omaha and in es tablishing a road to the Black Hills. As chairman of the committee on agriculture, Senator Paddock was in a particularly good posi tion to serve his constituents. He worked to build up the agricul tural bureau and helped to bring about its change to departmental status. He was instrumental in securing cattle quarantine and meat inspection laws. He was particularly active in support of pure food legislation. Senator Paddock’s greatest en thusiasm was the state of Nebras ka, in good times and bad. He was, indeed, one of the new state’s most ardent and effective promo ters. . He diedX>ctober 17, 1897, at his home in Beatrice.
