OFFICIALS GET WARNING
President Roosevelt Tells Governor Of Arizona About Rumors He Has
 Heard
HE WANTS A FAIR COUNT

Phoenix, Ariz, Oct 4.-Governor Kibbey has received the following let ter from President Roosevelt:
 My Dear Governor Kibbey:
 T am sorry to say that grave charges have been made to me that under the organization of which you are the active leader there will not be fair count of the votes on the ques- tion of statehood. If these charges were well founded need not say to you that it would be national disas- ter. 1 have no doubt there is no truth in them. but some prominent people in the United States do believe them, and they are joined ill the belief by some of the most prominent people of Arizona and New Mexico. Therefore to avoid all criticism I direct that If you can in any way arrange it youwill have representatives of the statehood people present at the canvassing of the votes on statehood. I have sent q copy of this letter to Governor Ha- german. of New Mexico and directed him to make the same arrangements, that is, have representatives from both the statehood and anti-state- hood parties present to witness the count of the yotes."
 Governor Kibbey immediately sent copy of this letter to Thomas E. Wilson, of Tucson, president of the joint statehood league, and wrote him that inasmuch that no statehood party has filed the name of a candidate with the territorial secretary. he asks Mir Wilson to furnish the names of state- hood advocates to serve on election day and witness the count in each precinct.
