Biographical History
The Honorable John Dalzell was elected to the United States Congress for thirteen consecutive terms from 1888 until 1911. After earning degrees from Western University (now the University of Pittsburgh) and Yale University, Dalzell was admitted to the Allegheny County bar in 1867 and formed a partnership with John H. Hampton. He would later defeat General James S. Negley on a protectionist platform to gain a seat in the House of Representatives in the 50th Congress. In his first term he embraced the Union Pacific Railroad Bill, the River and Harbor Bill and especially Monongahela River improvements, including free passage rights. He developed a close working relationship with the industrial magnate, Andrew Carnegie, whose industrial base encompassed the Congressman's district.
