Eduardo Dato e Iradier (A Coruña, 12 August 1856 – assassinated in Madrid, 8 March 1921). Three times Spanish Prime Minister (or President of the Minister's Council), 103rd from 27 October 1913 to 9 December 1915, 106th from 11 June 1917 to 3 November 1917, and 114th from 28 April 1920 to 8 March 1921 (official end of term on 12 March), eleven times a Minister and four times President of the Spanish Congress of Deputies.

Career

Born in A Coruña, Spain, son of Carlos Dato y Granados (himself the son of Carlos Dato Camacho y Marín and wife Cayetana Ruperta Granados y García, de Vivancos y Acosta) and wife Rosa Lorenza Iradier y Arce, of Galician descent, he moved with his family to Madrid while still young. He obtained a degree in Law in 1875 and opened his law office two years later. Elected to the Spanish parliament in 1883, he became Under-secretary for the Ministry of the Interior in 1892.

He held the position of Minister of the Interior and Minister of Justice over the next fifteen years. In 1907, he ran for and won the position of Mayor ("Alcalde") of Madrid. In 1910, he entered the Academy of Moral and Political Sciences. In 1913 he became Prime Minister of Spain for the first time. In 1915, he left that position, but would return to it for a short while in 1917. He became the 230th Minister for Foreign Affairs from 22 March 1918 to 9 November 1918. Then he moved to the post of Minister of State and stayed there until 1920, when he led the government as Prime Minister again. He was shot by Catalan anarchists as he left the parliament building in Madrid. This was the second murder of a Spanish prime minister in less than a decade; in 1912 Jose Canalejas had been killed similarly.

Dato was a member of the International Permanent Court in The Hague (he became Vice-President in 1913), member of the International Law Institute, administrator of the bank firm 'Banco Hipotecario' and President of the National Institute of Social Security, the Council of Public Instruction and the Academy of Jurisprudence and Legislation. The King Alfonso XIII of Spain posthumously bestowed the Duchy of Dato to his widow.

He was also made the 340th Grand Cross of the Order of the Tower and Sword of Portugal. After his death and for that impeadment and in his honour, his wife was granted the title of 1st Duchess of Dato.
