Robert B. Hawley
Robert Bradley Hawley (October 25, 1849 - November 28, 1921) was a businessman and politician from Galveston, Texas, elected as a Republican U.S. Representative (1897-1901) from Texas's 10th congressional district. He won his office in 1896 and 1898 with a plurality, as white voters split between Democratic and Populist party candidates.
Determined not to lose another congressional election or compete with the Populists and Republicans on split tickets, the Democrat-dominated state legislature passed a poll tax in 1901, which had the effect of disfranchising most blacks and many minority and poor white voters.〔 This ended competition in the state from the Republican and Populist parties. From 1890 to 1910 all states of the former Confederacy passed measures to disfranchise blacks and exclude them from the political process.
==Early life and education==
Born in Memphis, Tennessee in 1849, Hawley attended Catholic parochial schools and the Christian Brothers College there. After his father died when he was young, Hawley took on the duties of caring for his mother and siblings while still in his teens.
