SUNDAY, JUNE 18, 1011, JUDGE COKE WILL FACE RECALL FIGHT His Instruction to Jury In Murder Case at Roseburg Starts Move mentIs First Attempt Made tc Recall a Judge In This Country. CORX? Mlwf I i I OUSDS NEWS SALEM, Or., June 17. At (he re quest of K. L. Cninion, of Rosebuiy, Attorney General Crawford yester day examined the legality of the form (tf u etition for the recall ol Second Judicial district and aflci liiahiiiK a careful investijfaiion ot the form of the attorney general passed it as being free from error. This is the first time in the hitor of tho state of Oregon, and nossiblx in the history of the United tSnte that an effort has been made to re- unll u jndgo on the bench, and th. charges net forth in the fonn of pe tition for the recall of 'Judge Coki are looked upon by the SSlein law yers ns cntirelv without merit. Tin petition charges Judge Coke with prejudicing the jury in the case ol tho State vs. Hoy McCIellnn, the lat tcr being on trial for murder, in fa vor of the defendant by iastructiiH the jury in such a maimer as t bring about an acquittal.
