Webster City, Iowa, Nov. 9.-The semi
annual period of unrest which has swept
the big Iowa tenth congressional district regu-
larly since Senator j. Z. Dolliver pro
moted from the house of representatives to the
senate four years ago, is beginning to make
itself felt again this fall: While former State
Senator J. L. Kamrar of this city is at present
the Sonly ayowed candidate against the. present
Incumbent, Congressman J. L. Conner of Deni
son, there are several others whose names are
being freely mentioned
The announcement that George Il. Clark OF
Algona expects to be candidate for district
judge to succeed W. 3. Quarton. who was a
candidate against Congressman Conner two years
ago is taken BY politicians meaning that
Judge Quarton will soon announce his candidacy
for congress again. There has never been any

Senator Winne's name has been mentioned for
long time a likely successor of Congress-
man Conner. S. l.. Moore Of Boone, the banker
and man who built the hospital there has also
been proposed
But since J. L. Kamrar is the only man who
has thus far announced his Intentions his can
didacy just is attracting the most atten-
ton. His name is put forward by the anti
Cumnlins interests which makes the situation in
Hamilton and adjoining counties peculiar. Mr..
kamrar was a delegate from this city to the
recent law convention in Chicago. He is now,
and has been for twenty-five years past, the
local attorney for the Chicago & North Western
railroad. After reaching Chicago he refused
to attend either the regular the ''rumn'' con.
