BIOGRAPHICAL SKETCH 

Ewing Young Mitchell, Jr., was born in Springfield on 5 June 1873, the son of 

Confederate General Ewing Young Mitchell and his second wife Amanda Corinne Medly 

Mitchell. He had three brothers, Walter and R. Bland, who became Episcopal bishops, 

and Phelps. His sisters were Maude B. Mitchell and Nina Mitchell LaPorte. His halfsister 

Virginia “Virdie” Mitchell was the daughter of General Mitchell and his first wife 

Fannie Thomas Mitchell, and married Richard P. Bland. 

Mitchell’s marriage to Zoe T. Mitchell ended in divorce in 1914. They had no 

children. 

Mitchell served as a U.S. Senate page, 1886-1889, and a s a senate messenger, 

1890-1894. He graduated from National University Law School in 1894, and returned to 

Springfield, where he continued to reside. 

From 1901 to 1918, Mitchell was the law partner of W.D. Tatlow. The firm 

specialized in collecting defaulted municipal bonds, particularly those of Dallas, Macon, 

and St. Clair Counties. In 1905, Mitchell and Tatlow cash-entered 75,000 acres of 

federal lands in the Missouri Ozarks for $1.25 per acre. Mitchell’s chief business activity 

for the remainder of his life was his unsuccessful effort to dispose of these lands 

profitably. 

Mitchell was active in politics, a member of city, county, and state Democratic 

committees. In 1896, he participated in the Democratic presidential campaign. He was 

active in the efforts of his brother-in-law Richard P. Bland to win the Democratic 

presidential nomination. He took part in Joseph W. Folk’s efforts to win the Democratic 

presidential nomination in 1912, and in 1918 managed Folk’s senatorial campaign. In 

1916, he managed Breckenridge Long’s senatorial primary campaign against James A. 

Reed, and remained Reed’s bitter enemy. 

In 1932, Mitchell worked on behalf of Franklin D. Roosevelt before and during 

the Democratic National Convention, and was chairman of the Missouri division of the 

Roosevelt Business and Professional League.

In 1933, Mitchell was appointed assistant secretary of commerce, but he was 

dismissed in 1935 by Roosevelt after a controversy with Secretary of Commerce Daniel 

C. Roper over irregularities in the department. Mitchell attacked the administration in his 

book Kicked in and Kicked Out of the President’s Little Cabinet and What I Learned 

While There, 1936. 

Mitchell corresponded with Republicans and conservative Democrats, backed 

Landon in 1936, and finally became a Republican. In 1940, he ran unsuccessfully for the 

Republican senatorial nomination. He died in 1954.
