Description |
James Henderson Howe (1839-1920) was a grazier, parliamentarian and one of the founding fathers of the Australian constitution. He was a cabinet member in four South Australian governments in the 1880s and 1890s, generally with responsibility for Crown Lands. Howe was a delegate to the Australian Federal Convention of 1897-98. His most significant contribution was agreement for the transfer of responsibility for old age and and invalid pensions from the states to the Commonwealth. Howe was widely respected: the Advertiser, usually sympathetic to the working man, decribed the conservative Howe as 'one of the old time politicians, who richly deserved the title of honourable', an opinion echoed in the Observer. (Advertiser, 7 February 1920, p8; Observer, 14 February 1920, p5; Rob Van Den Hoorn, 'Howe, James Henderson (1839–1920)', Australian Dictionary of Biography, National Centre of Biography, Australian National University, http://adb.anu.edu.au/biography/howe-james-henderson-6745/text11653, published first in hardcopy 1983, accessed online 20 February 2019.) The State Library of South Australia has dated the same image (B3659) as being c1880, photographer unknown. The photograph appears to be from a collection of portraits of South Australian cabinent ministers. |
