After the early death of his father, at the age of 20, he took over the family's distillery and farm in Damme. Like his father, he was also actively involved in local and state politics. From 1890 to 1905 he was the mayor of Damme. In 1894 he became a member of the Vechta Board of Directors. From 1904 to 1911 he was a member of the Oldenburg state parliament as a center member. In 1911 he fell out with his party and in a bitter election campaign won the constituency as an independent candidate, which he represented in the state parliament until 1919.
