Will Not Be a Candidate.

Des Moines, Feb. 10 The dispatch
es sent out to the effect that Minister
Conger had cabled a prominent Iowan
at Washington that he would accept
the nomination for governor If it were
rendered him created no stir in politi-
cal circles here. Politicians read the
story ana then proceeded with the
work of setting up pins for their can
didates. The Conger story had no eff
feet upon the situation, for the reason
it was given no credence. 1t was re.
garded as entirely too indefinite. 1t
was the universal belief that If prom
inent iowan had really taken the trou-
bic to cable Minister Conger on the
subject Of the governorship, and had
received a reply of the nature de-
scribed. he would have given the
news to the people of Iowa over his
own name as quickly as the wires
could carry it.
