COLES ATTORNEY
SCORES PETITION
FOR DISBARMENT
Alleges Nothing Unethical in
Efforts to Save Client. and
/. Demands Full Inquiry.

Lincoln, Feb. 20. - (Special.)-
That there has been nothing illegal
or unethical in the acts of j. M.
Priest, attorney for Anson V. Cole,
i'll his attempts before the courts to
save his client from the electric
chair, is the statement made by Mr..
Priest in letters sent to Attorney
General Davis and Chief Justice
Morrissey of the supreme court.
Mr.. Priest asks that the charges
against him and other attorneys con
nected with the case. be investigated.
The letters are similar in character,
but the one to the chief justice goes
into the matter more fully, and is as
follows;
81 consider the charges, as made
by the people of Howard county,
of a serious enough nature that /
think they ought to be called upon
10 either substantiate them or with
draw this petition. and that the par
ties responsible for the circula ating
and filing of this petition, in case
they are not able to substantiate
the allegations set out in it, be pub
|1icly censured and be cited for con-
tempt of court.
Il wish to state that there has
been nothing illegal or unethical
done by this office 'or allowed to
pass through this office. and we do
not care to have such a charge
hanging over US as set forth in this
petition, and as said further in the
letter of the attorney general to
this honorable court, in which he
says, THE matters charged herein
are most serious, in my opinion.
They cannot and ought not be light
ly passed over. They cast such a
stain upon the names of the officers
of this court that the attorneys
ought to be disbarred or this blot
removed from their reputation.
1--WE ask that the attorney general
and his associates, as we'll as the
county attorney Of. Howard county,
be included in his investigation, and
that they be made party to this
oetition."
