Nicholas J. Hayes
Nicholas J. Hayes (1856 – January 3, 1928), also known as Nick Hayes, was a politician from New York City and one of the powers of the Democratic Party's Tammany Hall political machine for 30 years. His political power base was the 28th Assembly District (formerly the 33rd Assembly District) in lower East Harlem. He served as Fire Commissioner of New York City two times.
==Early life==
Nick Hayes was born in 1858 in Troy, New York of Irish parents. The family later moved to New York, where Hayes was educated in St. Francis Xavier's School. As a boy he had several odd jobs. He worked for the pharmaceutical company of McKesson & Robbins in Fulton Street, then he became a grocer's clerk and later a clerk in a tea house.〔(Nicholas Hayes Dies Suddenly ), The New York Sun, January 3, 1928〕
According to an obituary in the New York Sun, Hayes "had a way of getting along pleasantly – a bland, ingratiating way which was to smooth the road for him in politics and soon became a protégé of Tammany Hall boss Richard Croker."〔 Croker made him a clerk of the Superior Court, which was later merged into the Supreme Court.
After the victory of Tammany Hall politicians in 1897 Hayes was made Deputy City Clerk with a salary of USD 5,000 a year – a handsome salary in those days. That was also the year that Hayes wrested the leadership of the 33rd Assembly District in eastern Harlem from former Police Justice William H. Burke after an intense fight.〔〔(Tammany At The Polls; Hayes Won The Leadership In His District ), The New York Times, January 16, 1897〕
