Ellsworth Prospects Highlight County Election
In Ellsworth on October 25 the county backed the Republican ticket by 120 votes. Populists push to carry county for county ticket, doubting state ticket gains. Ex-state treasurer Otis L. Atherton, longtime Republican ally, is reportedly not working this year, possibly reducing GOP turnout. Populist leaders JC Ruppenthal and others foresee a tight race, with McCormick expected to gain votes and Reeder viewed as weaker than Ellis. Some Republicans remain inactive, while Atherton’s illness limits GOP support. Governor Leedy later appointed Glass of Marysville as district judge to fill the vacancy after Spillman’s death. Sargent’s successor: John L. Kennedy named to the district commission following Sargent.
