West Side Republicans Denounce Wenona Influence in County Nominations
A local letter rebukes claims of west side obligations to Wenona candidates and defends McCall’s long Republican presence. The writer notes Wenona fields left offices over 12 years, urges unity, and rejects the idea of a Wenona ring. He argues the east side bears no blame for past slights and calls for consolidated party support.
