Biographical History

Carss was born in Pella, Iowa (February 15, 1865) and was educated as a civil engineer. He moved to Proctor (Minn.) in 1893 and became a locomotive engineer. He was elected to Congress in 1918 on the Union-Labor ticket, but was defeated in 1920 and 1922. He was reelected in 1924 on the Farmer-Labor ticket for four years, being defeated again in 1928 and 1930. In 1929 Carss returned to locomotive engineering, and died in Duluth on May 31, 1931.
