Orrin N Carter for Governor of Illinois
A Chicago election paper outlines Orrin N Carter as a reform candidate for Governor. It details his public service as County Judge and head of the Chicago Board of Election Commissioners, praises his integrity, and records a January 24 1900 ward meeting where Carter accepted the candidacy and laid out his platform supporting fair primaries and no prearranged nominations. It includes endorsements from Twelfth Ward Republicans and a pledge to oppose secret political maneuvers.
