JUDGE LEWELLINB DECLINES TO BECOME CANDIDATE Urged By Friends to Run But Finds Practise Mora Profitable. City Recorder L. G. LcweUing hi announced bit inMtion of not be coming a candidate for the office of county judge at the coming elections. A large number of friend of Judge Lewelling ha ye" intittcd on hit run ning for the office and be hod prev iously made up hit mind to become a candibte. But before making a final decision be cfghed alt tldet of the question and came to the con clusion that hit personal nretta would be bctt served by staying out of politics. In apealting of hi refusal to run. yadge Lewelling this morning gave out the following' interview: "It i true (frit I have decided not to become a candidarV for county judge in the coming primaries. Thit conclusion has been reached after a full contideration of all likely retultt from a tuccestful J.srmination oi the primary and general elections. I owe it to my family to pursue that course whidih I deem belt for their wel fare, and af to.- having acquired a rea sonably successful law practice it would seem unwise to sacrifice the tame for a political office of uncer tain tenure but of certain ijsulls which would preclude the successful pursuit of the profession from which I expect to gain my future livlihood "I desire to thank my frfvnds who have so generously supported me in all my undertakings and believe that my future will merit their continijcd support. QK least I shaU try so to shape ft." Since talcing up his prakce in Al bany Judge LeweUing has built up a splendid law busineaa, and during the term that haa served at city recorder he Jias nude a good record as an officer. There ore six weeks left in which candidates may file their declaration to become a candidate for the pn mary nomination, and it is over two months until the primaries. While Judge D. B. McKnight will undoubtedly be a candidate to sue. ceed himself, he has not yet announc ed his intention in a formal state ment; and no other candidate ap pears on the Horizon m opposition to him.
