GOVERNOR klBBEY.
ArIzona's New Governor inau9ursted
 Makes no Announcement of Policy.

Makes no Announcement of Policy.
 J. H. Kibbey was Tuesday inaugural ed Arizona's governor in the presence of about five hundred people. The cere- monies were held in the assembly hall of the legislative chambers, the oath being administered by Chief Justice Edward Kent Besides the members of the joint assembly many prominent citizens were in attendance. In pre- senting Kibbey his commission, Kent said: "No man in the territory could have been chosen to fill the office of governor in whom Arizona has great CT faith. You have the best wishes of all the people of the territory"
 Kibbey made brief speech, saying among other things: ''I am proud to be Arizona's governor. am proud of Arizona but at this minute my pride would have reached it's zenith if I could turn over my office to the gov ernor of the state of Arizona, state with her present territorial bounda- ries not changed. My acts will not be done in anticipation of applause, but if the merit of any of my officials act meet with the approval of Arizona and her people will be fully paid. !"
 It was true he said. that the terri tory was small in population as had been urged against it but the responsi- bility of those who live here now and are striving for the upbuilding of the territory, is the greater for there are so few to share it with. The governor said that he felt that responsibility resting upon him and he would do those things which would contribute the more greatly to the progress of Arizona. In this way would recog- milton of the right of the territory to statehood be armed.
 The governor did not believe it would be proper for him at this time

GOLD IN WILLIAMS.
The Town Is Built Over BlS Placer Field. Fissstaff Parties Prospecting the Field.

For some time past prospecting for gold in the town of Williams has been quietly going on near the business portion, and the work was known to but few persons.
 Several months ago, in digging a well, c. F. Aycock discovered gold in small particles among the gravel. He submitted samples of his find to Pro- bate Judge Douglass, who is also an assayer, and he pronounced the find placer gold An investigation of the we'll was made and gold was found throughout it's depth.
 Judge Douglass interested A. T. Cornish, and together these gentlemen have been prospecting the valley in which Williams is located. Gold is found from the grass roots down to the depth of lO6 feet, not in big chunks or. small nuggets, but in the finer form, and many places the gravel will aver age sixty cents the square yard, and there is every indication that a large proportion of the field will yield this average, and it can all be cheaply worked
 An option has been taken on num- Der of lots, and the work of prospect ing will be prosecuted by Messrs. Cornish and Douglass.
 A boring machine has been ordered and as soon as it arrives holes will be put down at various places to test the quantity and depth of the deposit.
 The gold bearing field is an extensive one, extending from Williams for miles down the valley, but as to it's value, that is yet to be demonstrated.

Tuesday the dis trict attorney was notified that appli- cation will be made before the supreme court at Phoenix on March r for a writ of mandamus against the district attorney to compel him to take action in the matter.
 This is the second effort made in this case to compel the district attor- ney to take action. Last year District Attorney E, NJ. Doe went through the same legal proceedings, and the court decided in favor of the district at- torney.

to make an announcement of policy. He would only state that hs would do those things which he believed would be the best for the people. His ad- ministration would be an impersonal one; it would not be Kibbey's, but Ari- zona's.
 In conclusion the governor reminded the members of legislature that the session was drawing to a close and warned them against that confusion which always prevails in the lasts mo- ments often to the detriment of good legislation.
 The governor has appointed Sims Ely his private secretary, an excellent appointment. MT. Ely held the same position under Governor Murphy. He has been editor of the Republican, and is we'll known over the territory.
