Result of Primary Shows Limited Voter Turnout in Marshall County
The Marshall county primary produced a lukewarm turnout with little outside influence from newspapers. Democrats largely snubbed the race and questioned the law, while Cullom won the county by 172 votes and Andrew Russell carried Jacksonville. The Henry City Bridge Company discussed adding four turnout points on dikes to ease horse and auto passage amid rising automobilism. The firm Hommelgast & Co of Chicago will dissolve, reconstituting as Philip H. Sheffin & Co with C. White joining the new firm, occupying rooms in the Postal Telegraph building.
