He was a delegate to the Republican National Convention of 1876, where he supported Rutherford B. Hayes over Roscoe Conkling. He turned down an appointment as territorial governor of Idaho, instead becoming chief justice of the New Mexico Territorial Supreme Court in 1878, a position he held until 1882. President Benjamin Harrison appointed Prince governor of New Mexico Territory from 1889 to 1893. During this time, he and his wife Mary resided in the Palace of the Governors and held social functions there. Prince was a member of the New Mexico Territorial Council in 1909 and a delegate to the New Mexico State Constitutional Convention of 1911. He served as president of the New Mexico Historical Society from 1883, and was also a member of the New Mexico Horticultural Society, the Society for the Preservation of Spanish Antiquities, the New Mexico Archaeological Society, the Society of the Cincinnati, Sons of the Revolution, the Society of Colonial Wars, and the Episcopal Church. In 1881, he married Mary C. Beardsley, his second wife. They had one child. He also wrote "E Pluribus Unum: The Articles of Confederation vs. the Constitution" (1867), "The General Laws of New Mexico" (1880), "Historical Sketches of New Mexico" (1883), "The Money Problem" (1896), "The Stone Lions of Cochiti" (1903), "Old Fort Marcy," (1911) and "A Concise History of New Mexico" (1912).vizualizați mai puține
