Wertz urged for secretary of state nomination in 1900s dispatch
Dispatch from Columbus says a push is forming for Edd S Wertz of this city to run for secretary of state as a Democratic candidate and likely win the nomination. Locals in Wooster doubt the origin, suspect influence from Licking county and Ashbrook allies, noting Wertz may not accept and his supporters may reject a forlorn hope.
