Life

In 1894 he was elected to the local council without belonging to any party. On February 24, 1898, he was elected mayor, apparently as a compromise candidate. At that time, he announced his resignation if a financial control of the city by the state committee was not to be lifted. Since this did not happen, he resigned on April 7th of the same year, but remained on the town council.
