Arizona Press Associatien.

HartwcH made an admirable picture Of the press association; and taking the terrible subjects he had to work upon, he performed 2 wonderful feat. 1t would be diff cult to find eleven such sickly look ing fellows as compose this body; and it is said what they lack in style they make up in bra1ns. Hughes looks like an advent preacher; Gill like General Beau regard; Darlington like a Don Juan; MoCiintock like an Italian brigand; Vail like dancing mas ter; Morford a New England dea- con; Hicks a Chicago divine; Meek a heavy villain; Col. John stone looks as though he was pre- pared to clean out the entiie crew of the burro road. Masten thrown in; George Brown is the picture of a statesman, and a scholar, while Dunbar looks as though he was trying to swell his head to sufficient dimensions to ill Gill's hat. All in all Hartwell did well to preserve his camera and his reputation.- Phoenix Gazette.
