Political career
Brown ran for a seat to the Alberta Legislature in the 1921 Alberta general election. He contested the electoral district of High River as a United Farmers candidate and won a tight two way race over Liberal candidate J.V. Drumheller to pick up the seat for his party.[2]
Brown ran for a second term in the 1926 Alberta general election. He won the three way race with a landslide majority.[3]
The 1930 boundary redistribution would see High River abolished, Brown did not seek re-election and retired at dissolution in 1930.
