MONTEITH OUT
FOR MAYOR
Candidacy Launched Last
Night, Platform "Strict
Enforcement"

New interest has been injected into
the coming city election by the an
nouncement of the candidacy of
Charles E Monteith for mayor and G..
A. Swanson for alderman.
| The announcement of the candidacy of
| Mr., Monteith has caused considerable
! speculation as to the eligibility of the
candidaFe on the grounds of his po-
sition as deputy clerk under County
Clerk Clifford, the city charter provid-
ing that no person drawing public
| money is eligible to the elective or ap-
pointive offices of the city.
This feature, however, has been par
TALLY cleared by q statement made by
Attorney J. g. Crawford. In which he
says the entire matter has been fully
considered and in the event Of the cleo
ton of Mr.. Monteith he will resign from
his present position and establish an
office down town, where he can devote
more time to the administration of city
AFFAIRS. Mr.. Crawford 10 also RESPONSE
BILE for the statement that platform is
now being prepared by Mr.. Monteith In
which his determination to resign from
the present position, II elected mayor,
is expressed.
brought to the attention of Mr.. Mon
teith this morning and he stated that he
had given this feature no consideration
and believed 1t a matter for the legal
advisors to determine.
Plans Strict Enforcement.
Mr.. Monteith expresses himself as
candidate who will stand on a platform
for the stirct enforcement of all pre-
vailing ordinances and believes no per-
son should take an oath of office and
fail to enforce the letter of the law.
IT have been approached for the past
five months to permit my name to be
used as a candidate for mayor" said
Mr.. Monteith, but have absolutely re-
fused to consider the matter until saw
the people were anxious for change
and consented two days ago to let my
name go before the people.
my platform will be law and order
and a progressive administration Of the
oity's affairs consistent with conserv-
stive business methods.
II will do no electioneering." contin-
ued Mr.. Monteith, "and will make no
promises. If the people want change
it is up to them to make 1t as 1 will
not engage in any campaign"
Petitions Now Circulating.
Mr.. Monteith stated petitions asking
for his nomination on the regular ticket
will be circulated by c. P. Coburn, r.
T. Thompson G.. A. Swanson and 9TH
ers.
The first announcement Of the candi-
dacy Of Mr.. Monteith was made by d. L.
Filler, who stated that secret meetings
have been held for the purpose Of placing
candidates before the voters at the COM
ing city election.
Mr.. Filler was seen today and asked
relative to the promoters OF the Mon
teith boom, but stated that he was not
at liberty to give out any names. 1t
was learned, however, that Attorney P.
e. Stookey has been one Of the secret
counselors, and the impression Is be-
coming general that the movement now
being launched is the old anti-primary
political combination being brought be-
fore the people In new dress suit.
