SICKBED CALL
MAY BAR CRANE
FROM CONTEST
Candidate for Sheriff May
Be Shut Out for Failing
to File Expense

Considerable excitement has prevailed
in political circles throughout the coun'
ty today following the discovery that
Frank Crane, leading candidate for
sheriff in the November election, fail
to file statement of his expenses with
in Is days from the primary election a,
required by law. RumOrs ranging from
complete disqualification of Crane as
candidate, to his prosecution by the
county clerk on misdemeanor charge
were heard on all sides, coupled with
all sorts of stories relative to 'inde
pendent" candidates.
Crane did not file his expense state.
ment within the time limit, nor has
he done so yet, according to County
Clerk NJ. s. Cook. The law covering
the penalty for failing to file such q
statement reads:
Any person violating any Of the pro-
visions of Section 20 or Section 80, Of
this act (meaning the sections of the
primary act defining what constitutes
political expenses) shall be guilty OF a
misoemeanor and upon trial and con
viction thereof, in addition to the sem
tence imposed by the court, he shall
forfeit all right to the office for which
he was candidate mt the time OF vio-
lating the provisions thereof. 3"
Called Out Of City
According to County Clerk Cook, this
law plainly shows that vi0latOr must
be tried and convicted before he for
feits his right to the office he seeks,
and this opinion is upheld by the dis
irict attorneys office. "Crane must
file his expense account before he can
receive his nomination papers, said
Cook, "but it is not the duty Of the
county clerk to prosecute him on a mis-
demeanor charge
The district attorneys office also
says it is not within the province Of
that office to institute misdemeanor
proceedings and that such proceedings
would only De inauguratcd OH sworn
complaint Of some citizen.
Justice G.. T.. Markey, of CalcxicO,
close friend OF Crane 8 stated last
night that Crane had not wilfully sought
to evade filing an expense account but
had been suddenly called to Los Ange-
les late Tuesday night by the illness OF
his daughter, leaving his expense ae-
count with another party TO file for
him, and through oversight this was
not done. He was inclined to believe
the talk regarding the case a "tempest
in a teapot and expressed his conf
denee that whatever technical violation
of the law there had been on Crane s
part, can easily be rectified without
injuring his chances for success in Nov
ember.

The fire was the worst in the history

The cause of the fire is unknown.
When it was discovered by roomers in

was in flames, together with adjoining
buildings. The flames jumped across
the street to the Odd Fellows building

directions on each side of the street

For time it appeared that the en-

buildings in the territory between Mar.

trict on First street, which is close to
