ernorShip followed stormy term as
State engineer, in which Gov. Ross, a
Democrat, once had sheriff eject him
from the Office. Emerson took the dis
pute to the Supreme Court, which or
dered him reinstated.
He still was serving as State engi-
neer when he won the Republican
gubsrnatorial nomination and defeated
the widowed Nellie Tayloe Ross, Demo-
crat, the Nations first woman Govern
or, who was seeking a second term.
Emerson was reelected in 1880 by the
largest majority Wyoming ever gave a
candidate for Governor.
Born in Saginaw, Mich, May g.
1882, Gov. Emerson received an engi-
neering degree from the University of
Michigan in 1904, and came to Wyo-
ming the same year. In 1910 he mar
ried Zennia Jean Reyders, also a grad
uate of the Michigan University. Sur
viving him are his widow and three sons
