lawyer, farmer, and Republican activist. McCabe
vigorously promoted black settlement and
assumed role as spokesman for black people
in Washington with President Benjamin Harrison.

As a candidate for Territorial Governor, he
was quoted in the St. Louis Globe - Democrat:
Should I become governor, I promise to rule
fairly and fearlessly." McCabe became Logan
County treasurer by appointment of Gov. Steele
in 1890. He served as secretary of the Territorial Legislature in 1890. and was deputy auditor of the Territory from 1897 to 1907.

He was chiefly responsible for the founding
of Langston and helped in the location and
establishment of Langston University.
