natural inclination he took up the
study of Law in the Office of his
brother, the late Charles Carol
Crothers IN Elkton, and afterward
finished his course at the University
of Maryland, where he graduated in
1890 with high honors and returning
to Elkton was admitted to the Cecil
bar. He was elected States At
torney in the year of 1891 and
served out his term of four years.
In 1895 he was appointed counsel to
the Board of Commissioners for
Cecil county, resigring the position
when he was elected State Senator
in 1897 to succeed his brother, the
late Charles c. Crothers. He i'm
mediately became the Democratic
party leader in that body. He was
appointed chairman of the commit
tee on finance, and while holding
this position he made an impression
upon State officials which has never
been forgotten. Mr.. Crothers was
conservative and cautious, but at
the same time so logical in his
rulings of the committee that his
course in every matter was followed
with acclaim. He showed a tend
ency to guard the outlayTof the
peoples money, and in his admins
tration saved the State thousands
of dollars that might have been ex-
pended on wild cat Legislative
schemes.
Was Associate Judge For Time
In 1892, he ran again for the State
Senate, but was defeated, as was
also the ease four years later, his
defeat being due to bitter factional
differences in the county. In March
%. 1906, Governor Warfeld appoint
ed him associate judge of the Sec
ond Judicial Circuit to fill the va
cancy caused by the death of Judge
Edward H. Brown of Centreville.
The appointment was accepted by
Democrats as being a proper move
on the part of Governor Warfield.
Judge Crothers remained on the
bench serving with ability until his
nomination for governor in 1907.
His opponent on the Republican
ticket being George R. Gather o1
Baltimore. While in the midst Of
his campaign, Mr.. Crothers was
stricken with typhoid fever and al
election day was approaching his
condition became critical. Two
weeks before the voters were called
to the polls the Democrats through
out the State who had been at log
gerheads buried their hatchet
united and elected Austin L.
Crothers governor of Maryland BY
a good majority. In January. 1908
he took the oath of office and from
the day of his Inauguration unti
the expiration of his term of fou
4 years he devoted his entire time t,
the duties of the office. He was on
of the best governors Maryland eve
had; he sought to perform hi
arduous duties conscientiously;
man of positive convictions he wa
never afraid to take the stand whic
he considered right and had tn
courage of his convictions under al
circumstances.
