SMITH, John Sabine:
Was born at Randolph, Vermont, April 24, 1843. He was forced to gain an edu- cation largely through his own efforts, his father having the sparse income of a country physician. He worked during the summer and attended the Orange County grammar school during the winter season, entering Trinity College at six- teen. Through college he was obliged to work his own way, partly by teaching, and to some extent on borrowed money. He persisted, however, and graduated with first honors at twenty years of age. He then took charge of a select school at Troy, N. Y., saving enough during his four years there to repay his borrowed money, and studying law. Leaving Troy, he taught for one year in the Harrington school at Throgg's Neck, during which time, in 1868, he was admitted to the bar. In the following year he settled in the City of New York, where he became as- sistant in the office of William E. Curtis, afterwards chief-justice of the Superior Court. He soon began practice, until he had a lucrative business; he has been connected with the Republican Club of the City of New York for many years. He has been actively identified with its work and management since 1886, and largely instrumental in directing its po- litical activities, holding, through his con- nection with it, the position of a leader in his party. He took a prominent part in the formation of Republican League of the United States, constituted the special committee in charge of the organization of Pennsylvania, and was active in the first national convention of Republican clubs, held in New York, in 1887. In 1888 he was made chairman of the sub-executive committee of the State League, and was practically the manager of the League during the Harrison Presi- dential campaign. In the same year was elected one of the executive committee of the Republican Club of New York City and acting chairman of its campaign committee. In 1889 he became chairman of the committee on Municipal Elections, which under his leadership made the fa- mous fight for a straight Republican tick- et in the 1890 election campaign. The committee brought out the name of Hon. William L. Strong as candidate for may- or, and Mr. Smith vigorously urged his nomination. In 1891 he was chairman of the Committee of Fifty organized to aid the election of J. Sloat Fassett as gover- nor, in which cause the Republican Club made strenuous efforts, holding five great

mass-meetings. In 1892 he was again made chairman of the campaign commit- tee of the club, which now raised a fund of $15,000, and made a most vigorous canvass, carrying on the work throughout the summer and fall. A dinner was given him by the club in December of that year, in acknowledgment of his brilliant ser- vices. Having served for three years as vice-president of the club, he was elected its president in 1893. During his term he greatly recruited the club membership, and originated many new features of its activity, including a series of monthly dinners, which have proved very popular. He was nominated for surrogate in 1892, and received a larger vote than any other straight Republican candidate ever before named in this city on a national, State, or municipal ticket. In 1893 he was president of the Republican County Com- mittee of New York, and was afterwards member of the Republican State Com- mittee. He belongs to numerous socie- ties, including the University, Lawyers, Republican and Church Clubs, the Phi Beta Kappa Society, and others. He is president of the Society of Medical Juris- prudence, treasurer of the East Side House, trustee of Trinity College, and chairman of the committee appointed to raise funds to erect a new science hall for this institution.
