In 1883, Osborne was elected to Wyoming's House of the Territorial Assembly, but resigned in 1885, when he left the Territory for a brief period. In 1888, Osborne was appointed chairman of the Penitentiary Building Commission and elected mayor of the town of Rawlins. During the 1880s, Osborne set up as a physician and chemist in Rawlins, and opened a farm, at one point being known as the largest individual sheep owner in Wyoming.

In 1892, amidst unconfirmed claims of election irregularities, Osborne defeated Acting Governor Amos W. Barber in Wyoming's second gubernatorial elections since achieving statehood. Many incidents surrounded the election, including an almost-certainly incorrect allegation that Osborne had crawled along a ledge outside the Senate House and entered the Governor's Office through a window, in order to prevent Barber from occupying the office in his stead. Osborne was one of only a handful of Democrats to win Governorship of the state of Wyoming, and his term was stormy and rife with bitter fighting between his party and the Republicans. He finished his term in 1895-01-07, and declined renomination. From 1897-03-04 until 1899-03-03 he served in the United States Congress as U.S. Representative from Wyoming, but again declined renomination when his term expired. 1892 was a leap year starting on Friday (see link for calendar). ...
