History Of Maryland: In the latter capacity he acted as counsel for the people in all matters coming before the comission, until he resigned in 1913, and returned to private practice.

In 1915 he was the Democratic nominee for Attorney-General of Maryland, and in the fall was elected by the largest plurality ever received up to that time by any candidate for a State office in the history of Maryland, running over 30,000 votes ahead of his ticket.
