' '. Jaines Cole, former assistant United (UUi attorney for Oregon, la In the I -race to secure the Republican nomlna ' ., tloa for and conaecfuent election to the office of prosecuting attorney for the Fourth Judicial district to succeed John Manning-, the present incumbent. Mr. J Cole made the anonuncement of his can : v'dldacy yesterday afternoon, after hav 1st considered for some time the In- . alstent persuasion of personal friends, . business and professional men and nromlnent noltllclana of the district. .:.. In making- hat announcement, Mr. Cole . ! fctanffff for the equal and fearless en Z forcement 6f the laws of the state; He I w pledges himself, In the event of his elao ' tlon, to enforce the Sunday closing laws. . the gambling- laws and to prosecute all " persons engaged In the unlawful prao- tioe of medicine. He promises to etw S force the laws for the protection of ' minors, both boys and girls, to enforce - the labor laws and to carefully lnvesti- gate all charges of bribery and corrup ' tlon against whomsoever made. .Mr. Cole was born in Iowa 27 years . i ago and has been a law student since be was 16. He has gained his knowl- . edge and experience in the school of . hard knocks and has emerged with a clean reputation against which no ono . , has ever raised a question. He prac , 1 tlced law Jn Wisconsin for several years i v r before coming to Portland four years J' ago. . Tearless Prosecutor. ' Mr. Cole's strong record as an lm- partial prosecutor for the government 4f makes him an adversary to be feared - f. sind respected by all men seeking the - office to which he aspires. While he has announced a platform upon which , he expects to be elected to office, his ' I friends say that his reputation for per- nonal honesty and fearless Integrity , 4 will prove his main strength in the fight that Is to follow. While serving as an assistant to Wll . j 3 lam C. Bristol in the United States at 'v " torney's office, Mr. Cole achieved many victories In the federal courts that have wen him a place among the leaders In righteous clvio policy. His prosecu- tlon of the furniture associations; n Is f manner In dealing with criminals, ln- ''"'. eliding some of the worst type of burjf- i lars, thugs and cutthroats, has estab . i Ushed his reputation as a man of all- i around capabilities in dealing with vId- lators of the law that places him among the leading lawyers of the 'northwest. -hH- - -V Seonred Quick Coaneotlons., Perhaps no prosecutor on the Pacific roast has had to deal with a wore crowd of thugs than Mr. Cole had to handle when he proseouted the famous BeUwood postoff le""S!wng. This crowd consisted of men guilty of every crime ' known In the police -calendar from com mon pickpockets to expert safe cracks- i 'men and several are suspected of mur " der. Without exception Mr. Cole se - ured convictions In every case in which he returned indictments against theo men and all of them are serving term" In the state and federal penitentiaries from one and one half to 10 years. With his reputation as a prosecutor established and his known reputation and character free from the slightest spot, Mr. Cole enters the political field with a backing that marks him at once as one of the strongest candidates -n the field for the office of district at torney. His platform follows; ' . Ho Mincing of Words. "In declaring myself a candidate for the Republican nomination for district sttorney for the Fourth Judicial dis trict, it Is my desire to express confi dence in and the purpose to apply the spirit of American fair play as a con trolling factor in the politics and the administration of public business of this community. "Under the commercial conditions of the ace the general habits and business onmlurt has Dermltted the game of every day life to become complex and It Is dally becoming unusual. But the solution is simple when the purpose and policy of all officers of the law are t enfrirra thn rules which govern this game so as to protect society and Indi viduals Rgatast the offences and depre dations committed by those whose avar ice or vlclousness Jeopardise the safety of that society and those inaiviauais. a Interests, whether of business or politics have no place or voice in the enforcement of laws wherever or when ever that place or voice is used to that interest. Will Oo After Grafters, "Therefore my purpose and policy, if the Republican voters or mis juaicmi district nominate and elect me aS the next district attorney will be: '". To exhaust every effort to se cure to every person, In public or pri vate life, fair arid Impartial treatment end the protection guaranteed by the laws and constitution of this state, and to secure to the public the public ser vice to which it is entitled. "2. To enforce the Sunday-closing laws. "3. "4. To do my best to conv person practicing medicine or surgery in an unlawful manner. "5. To enforce the laws we have for the protection of minors, both boys and girls. "6. To enforce the laws of this state relating to labor. "7. To enforce the laws generally. "8. To carefully Investigate grafting and bribery rumors, and if evidence of grafting or bribery sufficient to secure and sustain convictions can be found to prosecute the offenders. Cole Free of All String's. , "I am not pledged, bound or prom ised to any faction, nor will I become so in any matter concerned with niy office or official career. Office should not be sought or occupied for private advantages or private honor, but I do consider that honost purpose and zeal wiLmMJi;nncMsr sowa 106 THICD STREET to acquire and retain a reputation as a lawyer in a, public position frees such position from undue Influences, politi cal or otnerwise unu pruvmon uiuu lus to every cltlsen's satisfaction In the performance of duty. "Lastly. I desire the public to under stand that I am a Republican and that If elected, no political Influences or po- lltlcal ambitions will be permitted by me to control or interfere with the duties of the- office of district at tor- I ney, and I will exert my utmost to re sist and destroy such control or inter ference to the end that this community may have the full benefit and protec-1 TOWN TOPICS Presiding Judge Cleland In the cir cuit court yesterday overruled the mo tions to quash in the three cases against J. Thorburn Ross and other of ficers of the Title Guarantee & Trust company in which they are accused of misusing the state funds Intrusted to the r care. Attorneys ror tne aereno- ants announced that they Intend to rile demurrers next Monday, this being the time fixed for their clients to pieaa or demur. This will still further delay the setting of the cases for trial, as the demurrers wHl be argued at some later day. District Attorney Manning hotly protested against delay and said that the attorneys for -the defense ought to be fined .for putting in such frivolous motions as they hafe present ed. Wallace McCamant, attorney for Rosa, denied that he has sought any unnecessary delay. He said that ne Is representing an innocent man and Intends to take advantage of all the rights the law gives him in defending the case. Including an application for change of venue on the ground that the aerense cannot nave a rair inai In Multnomah county. Graves & Co. Compelled to Vacate Present Quarters Owing to Exorbitant Demand jn Rents, , Entire stock of Sheet Music, Talking Machines, Musical Instruments, etc., to be closed out at once. TJie most drastic price cutting ever known. Office furniture, Typewriters, Desks, IJgSi Fixtures, etc., go at what they'll . bring. y ' - Sale Commences Tomorrow Mornirlg at 9 A. M. It is doubtful whether a combination of unforeseen circum stances ever necessitated' such dralttc measures . as confront Graves & Co. at the present moment. After occupying their present quarters at 328 Washington street ior a number of years and building up the largest Sheet Musicand Talking Machine and Musical Instrument business in the west, we arc asked to pay an increase in rent,that is an absolute impossibility. While we fully appreciate that realty values and rents have advanced in jumps and bounds, yet to pay the big rent ,now asked would mean to turn over practically our entire profits to the landlord. i t - A Thousand Dollars for a Location We have scoured the city for a location, but without success, and we-will willingly give a $1,000 bonus for suitable quarters. As matters now stand there is no alternative but to close out our present store." Much as we regret this step the entire stock of Graves &. Co., unquestionably the largest and finest as sortment of Sheet Music, Talking Machines, Violins, lianjos, Guitars, Mandolins, Music Cabinets Music Hags, Hand Instru ments, Accordions, Drums, etc., etc., also a number of Pianos returned from renting, will be placed on sale, commencing to morrow morning, at the , Lowest Prices Ever Known Space will permit of only a few prices and brief description, but remember, everything in the establishment (except a few contract goods) has been reduced from 20 to 60 per cent.
