JUDGE GREEN THE MAN
NEEDED IN NINTH DISTRICT
To Meet The Conditions Outlined By
The NonparieI In The Following
Article In That Paper.

Under the caption THE Need of the
Ninth" the Council Bluffs Nonpariel has
very clearly hit the mark by saying the
greatest need is to nominate some one
for Congress who can be elected; some
one who is capable and who would not
be antagonized seriously by either fac
ton. A prominent republican who
called our attention to this article sug-
gested that Audubon County could.fur-
nish just such man in the person of
Hon. w. r. Green. Judge Green is not
only able, available and popular, but he
would have the advantage of large
and favorable acquaintance throughout
the entire district, far more so, probab-
ly than any other man that might be
named. But here is the article from
the Nonpariel
THE NEED OF THE NINTH.
The Ninth district of Iowa is soon to
be called upon to elect congressman.
There is much big talk about the sub.
ject. Simmered down, perhaps the real
question is this: Is this new congress
man TO be republican or democrat?
Judge Smith carried the district last
fall by the narrow margin I,847. That
is well down in the danger zone. Is
the party in any better shape in the dis
trict now than it was last fall. That all
depends on the course the party now
takes.
The crux of the thing is in the nomi-
nation. WHO'S to be the nominee? What
sort of a man must be selected? He
must, of course be man qualified for
service. The need of the
is a new man, one who is not
in bad with either faction of the
party. Being otherwise available, such
A man could unite the party and win
hands down. Almost of necessity, he
would be young man. Politics is a
,ruel game. 1t is something of q Kill
Kinney cats affair. The leaders and
workers for years sometimes must ,
give way to others. They make each
,ther impossible Is such situation
1t hand in the Ninth district? 1t seems
70. Where is the young man Of brains
md integrity and ability and strength
% lead the republican hosts of the Ninth
listrict away from the wilderness that.
threatens to envelop them? 1t is posi-
Die that any one of a number Of old,
vets" might VIM and
his without reference to the faction
rom which he might come, but the OBJ
'ious logic of the situation calls for new
imber.
Where are we to find this bright,
lean young man who is to serve the
Ninth district?

WONDERFUL INVENTION BEING

make, but the new models will cost
t1,l50 each. This, therefore, will re-
strict their sales, for only navies will
be able to afford them. Had Il been
left to Captain Lawless, he would not
have been able to persevere with his
researches, for he could not afford to,
but his friend, j. D. Spreckels, came
to his assistance, and already he has
spent $1,000 In trials and their man
ufacture, all of which will refunded
by Captain Lawless plus any inter-
est in the event of success. Should,
however, the invention prove a COM
mercial failure through any of the
governments declining to accept it,
then Spreckels has generously prom
Used to bear the whole expense him
self.
By using Lawless' machine, there
is no necessity or ,azimuth tables, and
all that is essential is to be certain
that the time is correct within one
minute of the true. Captain Lawless
knows that his invention is a sue
cess, for he has demonstrated this
himself. He claims that he should be
pensioned by the United States gov
eminent for his invention, and in sup
port of his statement he quotes the
case Of Hadley, who invented the
quadrant. That. of course, was very
long ago, and England, in recognition
of the wonderful instrument gave
him pension of $1,000. a very large
sum in those days. Since Hadley's
first model, there have been improve
ments, but the original idea is sim
there, and to Hadley must be given
the distinction of being the one who
invented the instrument.
