He was re-elected to his old seat as an unaligned candidate in 1902, but was defeated for the new seat of Bendigo West in 1904 after his old seat was abolished.
He was elected to the South Australian House of Assembly in 1917, winning a 1917 by-election for the seat of East Torrens for the Liberal Union. He was re-elected in 1918 and 1921, but was defeated in 1924.
