Primary race shapes Wells and Blackford judiciary
In Indiana Wells and Blackford counties hold a Democratic primary for judge and prosecuting attorney in the twenty eighth judicial circuit. Three candidates, Judge C F E Sturgis, W S Eichhorn, and Levi Mock, contest the judgeship, while Leo F Sprague seeks the prosecutorship with no opposition. The district traditionally assigns the judge to Wells and the prosecutor to Blackford, but this primary breaks that pattern. Betting boards reflect expectant contention, especially between Sturgis and Eichhorn, with Sturgis seen as a likely nominee for a second term.
