Carroll Herald Judge Conner has
been known to the people of his part
of Iowa for good many years. Be-
fore he was nominated for congress in
1900 he had attained standing that
placed him among the useful and
worthy men of the state. He had
held positions of responsibility and
in every instance measured up to the
highest standard of public require
ment. AS citizen and man of affairs
he commanded the highest esteem of
all who had known him and associated
with him in personal and business
matters. 1t was the force of his

jewell Record When confronted
with the query as to what claim
Congressman Conner has on the re-

getting for this county a substantial

do more good for the Tenth district
than any other man could hope to do.
