James Gray (mayor)
James Gray (February 18, 1862 – September 8, 1916) was a journalist and the 19th mayor of Minneapolis.
==Life and career==
Gray was born in Falkirk, Scotland to John Gray and Elizabeth Ronald. Gray's family emigrated to the United States in 1866, settling in Iowa. He attended schools in Dubuque County, Iowa and Jackson County, Iowa. After working as a teacher for a year, Gray moved to Minneapolis in 1880. He attended the University of Minnesota, graduating as valedictorian in 1885. After graduating, he began working with the ''Minneapolis Tribune'' as a reporter. When the Minneapolis Times was founded in 1889, he moved there to work as an editor. He was later promoted to managing editor and also served as a special correspondent in Washington, DC during the run up to the Spanish–American War. Based partially on the name recognition he gained from his work as a correspondent, Gray ran as the Democratic nominee for mayor of Minneapolis in 1898 and won. He ran for re-election in 1900 but was defeated by A. A. Ames.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://electiontrendsproject.org/search/search.php?candidate=11&lookup=gray )〕 After leaving politics he became an editor with the ''Minneapolis Journal''.
Gray died on September 8, 1916. He is buried in Lakewood Cemetery in Minneapolis.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.findagrave.com/cgi-bin/fg.cgi?page=gr&GRid=122775760 )〕
