Horace Worth Vaughan
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Horace Worth Vaughan (December 2, 1867, near Jefferson, Texas–November 10, 1922, Honolulu, Hawaii) was an American lawyer, jurist, and politician. From 1910 until 1912 he was a member of the Texas State Senate and in the US House of Representatives from 1912–1914. Vaughan was appointed as United States district attorney and latter United States District Judge for Honolulu. Vaughan was a political supporter of Woodrow Wilson and advocated states to pass prohibition, which he opposed at a national level because he believed that it would violate states rights.
