lawyer military politician Soldier
Halbert Eleazer Paine was born on February 4, 1826 in Chardon, Geauga County, Ohio, United States. He was the son of Eleazer and Caroline (Hoyt) Paine. He was descended from a long line of Puritan ancestry running back to Stephen Paine who migrated to New England in 1638.
Halbert Eleazer Paine was educated in the commun schools. He completed his academic training at Western Reserve College, from which he graduated in 1845.
After graduation Halbert Eleazer Paine removed to Mississippi, where he taught school for a time, but soon returned to Ohio and took up the study of law. In 1848 he was admitted to the bar and began practice at Cleveland. Removing to Milwaukee, Wisсonsin, in 1857, he opened a law office there, and soon formed a partnership with Carl Schurz. The latter was so constantly engaged in politics, however, that the work of the office fell almost completely upon Paine. Both were idealists and in considerable measure crusaders. He was commissioned colonel of the 4th Wisconsin Cavalry, July 2, 1861, and brigadier-general of volunteers, March 13, 1863.
At Harrisburg, Pennsylvania, his regiment was offered a stock train for transportation, which he indignantly refused, and, arming his men with pickhandles, he seized the next suitable train that passed through. He refused to return fugitives and also declined to obey General Butler's order to burn Baton Rouge. His military service was distinguished. He lost a leg in the attack upon Port Hudson, Louisiana, and thereafter served on a military commission, as commander of forts in the defense of Washington, and finally as commander of the military district of Illinois. He was brevetted major-general of volunteers, March 13, 1865, for conspicuous gallantry on several occasions, especially at Port Hudson. On May 15, 1865, he resigned from the army.
In the Thirty-ninth, Fortieth, and Forty-first congresses, to which Paine was elected as a representative from Wisconsin, he supported the Radical faction. His two speeches on reconstruction subscribe to the "State Suicide Theory". In the Fortieth Congress, he was chairman of the committee on militia and in the Forty-first, he served as chairman of the committee on elections, of which he had been a member during his first term in Congress. The position was extremely important, because of the question of seating representatives from the Southern states. As a practical politician, from his position as chairman of the committee on contested elections, he was sometimes forced to answer Thaddeus Stevens' question, "Which is our rascal?" His reports to the House were brief, direct, and conclusive.
Declining to stand for reelection in 1870, he took up the practice of law in Washington. His former law partner, Carl Schurz, pressed him to become the assistant secretary in the Department of the Interior. He declined for financial reasons, but later accepted the post of commissioner of patents. During his eighteen months in this office (November 1878 - May 1880), he instituted important changes in the bureau. The most important of these were the substitution of scale drawings for models, the provision that errors of the patent office could be rectified without changing the date of the origin of the patentees' rights; the dating of claims for grants from the time of receipt of the application instead of at some time within three months thereafter; and the introduction of the use of typewriters.
After his resignation Paine resumed law practice, which he followed to the end of his life. In 1888 he published A Treatise on the Law of Elections to Public Offices, which remains the authoritative work upon the subject. It exhibits the rules and principles applicable to contests before judicial tribunals and parliamentary bodies, and is based upon American, English, Scotch, Irish, and Canadian authorities. It consists of 900 pages of heavily annotated text and a comprehensive list of cases (to 1888) which constitute the precedents from which the rules and principles are derived. Systematically presenting all the aspects of the law upon elections, it stands as a monument to the industry, comprehension, and thoroughness which were dominant attributes of the author's character. Halbert Eleazer Paine died on April 14, 1905 in Washington, D. C. and was buried in Arlington National Cemetery.
Halbert Eleazer Paine was an outstanding military. He commanded the 4th Wisconsin Cavalry during the Civil War and served three terms in United States Congress (1865 - 1871) after the war. He was well known for disobeying orders to return fugitive slaves to their owners and refusing to burn down the city of Baton Rouge, Louisiana. As a lawyer, Paine was known for his service as the United States Commissioner of Patents.
