McDonald, William C

    0.01 sec.

McDonald, William C (1858–1918)

US cattle baron and politician. He was a US deputy mineral surveyor (1881–90) and then entered the cattle business. A strong Democrat, he was pushed to accept his party's nomination and was elected as the first governor of New Mexico (1912–17). He took no campaign contributions and owed nothing to any factions. McDonald was born in Jordanville, New York. He taught school and studied law in New York before moving to Kansas in 1880 and then New Mexico in 1881. He retired from politics to his ranch near Carrizozo, New Mexico.
