Fate of County Division With Governor
 Kibbey on Account of Mistake.

Through an oversight in the couu- Gil, Speaker Webb of the house, was not given an opportunity to sign the bill creating Greenlee county before the bill was sent to the governor. This mistake was discovered. on the 9th of March and MT. Webb did nor affix his signature until then. There fore the bill was not presented to the governor in legal form until the Sth, which is within ten days Of adjourn ment. By this blunder the fate of county division is placed in the hands of Governor Kibbey, who need not sign nor veto the measure if he does not choose to do so, thus giving the legislature no chance to pass 1t over his veto.
 While the divisionists of Graham county are placed in rather delicate position, it is d fact that the gov ernOr is thoroughly acquainted with conditions and the wishes of the peo- pie of Ora ham county, therefore there should be no reason why he should displease u~ by killing he bill after we have made the fight for it.
 Phoenix papers printed reports that another bill was expected 10 be introduced giving county division immediately, but such bill was mol presented up to the close of the Sth. he last day for the introduction of new bills.
