He was elected to the Cook County Board of Supervisors in 1866 and elected supervisor of Orland Township four years later. Humphrey purchased a large plot of land in anticipation of the expansion of the Wabash, St. Louis & Pacific Railroad and rallied to have the lands named Orland Park in 1879. Humphrey was first elected to the Illinois House of Representatives in 1870 and to the Illinois Senate in 1886. The town of Orland Park was incorporated in 1892 and Humphrey was elected its first mayor, a position he held until his death in 1914.〔http://gis.hpa.state.il.us/pdfs/223378.pdf〕 Humphrey built his residence, the second permanent house in the town, in 1881. It was built in a vernacular four-over-four design with a two-story ell. Humphrey's son John Stuart maintained the house until 1987. The house was recognized by the National Park Service with a listing on the National Register of Historic Places on August 1, 2005.〔
