Is a candi date for the Democratic nomination tor Railroad Commissioner. Mr. McCabe Is well known throughout the state and has many friends. He Is a dealer railway equipment and supplies, with offices in the Chamber of Commerce building. For many years he was superintendent of the operating depart ment of railroads and is a thoroughly practical railroad man who knows how A. J. MeCahe, Candidate for nemorratle rVontlnatloa for Railroad Conunfaaioner. railroad properties should bo main tained. He is not a politician, however. and could only be induced to enter the race after the continued solicitation of many friends. Mr. McCabe asks his friends to write In his name on the official ballot In th space under Railroad Commissioner. "I have hesitated about coming out for Railroad Commissioner for some time." said Mr. McCabe yesterday, "as I prefer to give my time to my bust ness, but the urging of my friends has been so Insistent that I reluctantly con sented. It Is my desire that the Demo crats have, a candidate for Railroad Commissioner who Is capable of filling the position with credit to the party. My experience In railroad operation has been so extensive that I am sure It wilt prove of value to the people of this state If used In their service. I am a consistent Democrat and If nomi nated will make the race. I wish to ask my friends throughout the state to write In my name on the ballot to day. there being no other Democratic nominee. CORONER AND GRAFT. Other Large Cities Have Divorced the Coroner's Office From the Un dertaker's. Dr. Ben Norden's campaign man agers, Dunning & McEntee, came out In yesterday morning's paper with an article containing a letter from City Attorney Kavanaugh for the purpose of discouraging the people In their con tention for a public morgue, as advo cated by Dr. J. C. Twltchell, Republi can candidate for Coroner. There is nothing In the City Attorney's letter of advice, but what advocates of a public morgue have stated In their ar guments before the people. It Is true that the city charter and ordinances do not provide for a morgue, but It Is In the power of the City Council to pass an ordinance to establish one. The County Court has the power also to es tablish one. Furthermore, it can be brought about by and through the peo ple in one year. Hence, until this should be done through any of the above agencies. Dr. Twltchell, If elected to the office, proposes to establish a morgue at his own expense, inde pendent of any undertaking firm, thus treating all with impartiality. The supporters of Dr. Twltchell contend for the votes of people on these grounds: That he has no private interest to serve as undertaker or in the casket business; Dr. Twitchell's managers say It is a notorious fact that Dr. Ben Norden is being supported by Dunning & McEntee, the undertaking firm, and that they have spent a large amount of money for his nomination; and, why? Because they have their own private in terest to serve through the Coroner. The Coroner should be a physician, and not only that, he should not be the tool of any undertaker. HE IS NOT A CANDIDATE A. B. Steln-bach Does Not Seek Nom ination for State Senator. PORTLAND. April 16. (To the Editor.) I wish to inform the voters and public that I have no desire to become a can didate for State Sena-tor.
