NEED NOT BE AN ATTORNEY ,
Such Qualifications Not Required for
the Office of County Judge.
Law Refers to Papers.
An attorney who has kept pretty
well posted on the laws of the state
and the elecMon laws in particular ,
and has studied the laws adopted by
the late legislature , states that ho is
of the opinion that The News was in
error In giving the impression that
none hut a duly admitted attorney-at-
law could hereafter qualify for the
position of county judge and that
there are no other qualifications de
manded of that olllcer than have heen
required in the past.
There was , however , an amend
ment adopted to secvlon 11 , chapter
7 , of the statutes , entitled "Attorneys"
which provides that hereafter a
county judge shall not draw any pa
per or written Instrument to he filed
In his own court , except such papers
as he Is required hy law to draw him
self. It may ho that this was re-
sp msli'l i for the o-jmhr.i of some that
it would require an attorney to qual
ify for county judge in the fuvure.

Action Commenced by T. J.
Sheibly Yesterday.
HE CLAIMS $6,000 DAMAGES
The Plaintiff Is not Pleased With the
Manner In Which the Last Con
gressional Campaign Was Con
ducted.
The News Is the owner of a full
Hedged llhol mil' , today. Thomas ,1
Shciblcy of Poncn Is the complainant ,
mil ho asserts In his petition thai It
will require the modest sum of $ t > ,
HH ) to assuage his wounded feellngH
ind make him feel right toward the
world again. The action \VIIH tiled
yesterday In the dlsM'Ict court of Mad
ison county , the names of (5. \\f. Argn
andV. . 10. ( iantt of Sioux City up
pearlug as attorneys lor the plalnlllY ,
ind Is brought against \V. N. llusc.
liuhllsher of The News. The ullega
( Ions upon which It is hoped in
recover are that the defendant puh
llshed some statements to refute the
charges circulated about ,1. .1. Me
Cai'ihy , when he was candidate lor
congress , during the last campaign
The principal cause of complaint IH
given as a statement which Is al
leged to have appeared In The News
during the heat of the political battle
the language of which is quoted In Mie
petition as follows :
"Tho republican congressional com
mlttee has Issued the following staff
ment of tne situation which bears
the slgnavures of Chairman F.O. Fulen
and Secretary .lack KoenlgHteln :
"Tho republican congressional ecu
( nil committee has heen Informed
that a base slanderous attack Is be
ing made by our opponents on the
character of lion. .1. .1. McCarthy In
these closing days of the campaign
The committee have carefully and
fully Investigated the statements he
Ing circulated ami know them to be
false in every detail ; that they hituY
been prepared for their supposed i i
lltle.nl effect , and are being used us
an attempt to estrange votes from
the republican candidate , and to put
mote the interest of the fusion noiu
Ijiee.
"This committee Is In possession ot
counter aflldavits showing eoncbi
sively that all of the charges again * l
our candidate are absolutely false. .1
T. McCarthy has led a clean and lion
orable life in this district for twenl.\
years and no breath of suspicion as
to his morality was ever hinted at
until his political enemies in their
desperation knowing his strength
with the people , conceived the Idea
of procuring perjured statements ,
with the hopes of thereby injuring his
candidacy , livery fair minded man
will condemn this contemptible meth
od of attack , and every lover of just
ice and fair play will register his
protest against this outrage.
"Tho animus of this attack orig
inated in a case in which .1. .1. Mc
Carthy was employed to assist the
county in an action brought to recover
fees belonging to DIxon county , which
T. .1. Sheibloy as county clerk had
failed to account for. This case is
reported in Northwestern Reporter ,
Vol. 85 , page , ' ! ! ( ! ( , and since which
time T. J. Sheibley has been active
in originating and circulating false
and malicious reports attacking the
character of the republican candi
date for congress in this district. "
Hosldos this specific affront to the
dignity and peace of the community
and more especially to one T. J.
Sheibley , other Horns wore published
by The News during the campaign
which did not please vho plaintiff
and which ho believes ought to "ost
the publisher something. It is as
sorted in the petition that by means
of said false and defamatory publi
cations the plalnviff was injured In
his reputation to his damage in the
sum of $0,000 , wherefore the plaintiff
asks judgment against the sa'd defendant
fondant together with costs of Mils
action.
