JUDGE CONNER AT HOME
Tenth District Congressman Returns
to Look after Political Interests

Hon. j. P. Conner arrived in Den
ison on Wednesday morning with the
expection of remaining for two or
three weeks. during which time he
hopes to visit all the counties of the
big tenth. The new primary law
brings the usual contest for election
in his district in June instead of No
vember and Judge Conner as candi-
date for reelection feels that it is
only proper that he should get in
touch as thoroughly as possible with
district conditions. His only opponent
at this time is Mr.. Woods and present
conditions indicate that the Judge has
him beaten by not less than two to-
one. AS faithful, conscientious and
hard working representative for the
people Judge Conner deserves re-nom-
ination and the large majority of the
people of the district seem to regard
it in that light.
His visit will necessarily be Short
ened by his desire to return to Wash
ington where Congress is still in ses-
sion. but he hopes to remain in Iowa
until after he state conventlon
Numerous matters IN the district re-
quire his attention and it is probable.
that he will see large number OF
his constituents before returning to
the east. 1t is his hope as we'll as
that of the republicans of Denison
that the convention on Friday may be
we'll attended by republicans from ar
parts of the county. as it will affor3
perhaps the only opportunity of the
year for republicans to meet in coun-
Gil.
