LANDIS, FREDERICK: 1872-1934.
Frederick Landis, one of seven children of Abraham H. and Mary A. Kumler Landis, was born at Seven Mile, O., on Aug. 18, 1872, and received his early education in the public schools of Logansport, Ind. In 1895 he graduated from the University of Michigan law department and began the practice of law in Logansport. From 1903 to 1907 he was a member of the 58th and 59th Congresses. Following his retirement from Congress, he turned to literature, writing several successful books. For three years he was on the editorial staff of the NEW YORK AMERICAN.
In 1912 he joined the Progressive Party and was its candidate for lieutenant governor of Indiana. He later became editor of the Logansport PHAROS-TRIBUNE and also spoke over the radio as "The Hoosier Editor." In 1933-34 he published a monthly magazine, THE HOOSIER EDITOR, made up entirely of his own writings. Mr. Landis was elected again to Congress in 1934 but died on Nov. 16 of that year of pneumonia contracted during the strenuous political campaign. He married Bessie A. Baker in 1909.
