torney L. M. Curl this morning gave
out an interview to the Democrat in
which he clearly defines his position
in regard to the acceptance of the
nomination.
In reply to the question, "Will you
be a candidate for the office of may
or at the December election," Mr.
Curl spoke as follows:
"I have not formally announced my
candidacy, nor will I become a candi
date unless fully convinced that the
majority of legal voters believe that
I am the most available man for the
place. I have been approached by a
large number of local business men
asking me to accept a nomination for
mayor and from present indications
there appears to be a demand among
the business interests that I make the
.ace. Unless the condition of publir
sentiment changes between now and
and the date of the election it is-more
than probable that I shall become a
candidate."
Mr. Curl was then asked by the
Democrat representative for a state
ment concerning his views on the lio-
nor question and the following was
his renlv:
"That is a question for the people j
of Albany to decide. I will say how- j
ever that I do not advocate the repeal j
of any ordinance which has for its
purpose the enforcement of the liq- (
nor law and in the event of my nomi- j
nation and election, I will to the best i
of my ability, :rictly and rigidly en
force the laws dealing with this sub
ject as well as every other city ordinance."
