DISTRICT ATTORNEY The first of the year a number of Republicans, Including many who approved of my efforts in the Interest of the taxpayers as State Representative four years ago, requested me to be come a candidate for the office of District Attorney, Inasmuch as there would be, In addition to the regular duties of the criminal and Juvenile courts, new duties and conditions confronting the office.

My reply was that I would be come a candidate if it were gener a'ly desired and the race could be made without assuming special ob ligation to any particular Individ ual, faction, locality or interest.
