Governor kibbey
 Explains Situation

| Muiiord Winsor Is to be the first official historian of Arizona. This was indicated very conclusively yes terday afternoon by Governor Kibcey in letter to the Woman's club Of Phoenix, who desired the appointment of Miss Shar!ot NJ. Hall. It is made plain by the governor that it was inn possible to appoint Miss Hall because the democratic legislature had refused to create the position fl Miss Hall or a republican was to be appointed his torian, but that the legislature would pass such law if Winsor was sp- pointed.
 In his letter to the Woman's club the governor says
 Having approved tie plan of the establishment of the office, l could not well make it's establishment con ditional upon the choice of the in. cumbent The alternative presented 10 me was to have no such office at All, or consent to appoint NIT. Winsor 70 it. The question presented to me was whether the office or the iucum. bent was the most important con- sideration do not know that any grave objection can be urged to MT. WinsCr, except possibly his political faith; and Tn a matter of this import ance tbat should not outweigh the desirability of the establishment oi the office for the public good. The question was not whether Miss Hall should be considered, for that question had been settled by the legislature.
 "I had to decide to have the office with Mr. Winsor as it's first incum- bent or not have the office at all My judgment is that decided wisely to have the ofice, even though I could not designate Miss Hall to be its in cumbent. Ii had insisted on Mise Hall we would not have had the office established, so that my action in no event can be deemed to be want of recognition on my part of her worth and fitLessn

Contest for Governor
 Is Getting Warm

A Washington special to the Phoe- nix Republican says: The contest for the nomination for governor of Arizona is getting warmer, but the indications are that President Taft intends to proceed cautiously in mak- ing this, as all other appointments for the territory. Telegrams for and against all the candidates for gover- nor are coming in from every wn in Arizona. Present indications seem to indicate that Governor Kibbey is occupying the strongest position.
 It is asserted that Judge Campbell will be resppointed, and it looks as though Ernest W. Lewis would be ap. pointed to succeed Judge Nave. These appointments will probably be announced some time next week.

The Fight for
 Arizona GovernorshIp

The race for governor of Arizona IS getting warm.
 A few days ago the Kibbey element favored Xibbey for first choice and George U. Young for second choice. Along this line petitions were circu- lated m every town in Arizona asking President Taft to reappoint Governor Kibbey.
 Now, however, according to the Phoenix Democrat, a new feature is appearing Petitions are being circu- lated protesting vigorously against Governor Kibbeys reappointment. These petitions gre not in the interest of any man, but are the work of all the factions opposing Kibhey.
 The result has been that George |. Young, who was the second choice along with Kibbey, has been side tracked and all of the second choice men are getting in hehind Ribbey.
 So far a- can be learned the real fight is between StoddarG ard Sturgess. It seems that Sturgess has the sup port of National Committeeman Hitch. cock and is said to have the endorse ment of the national committee Stoddsrd has the endorsement of the Vice-Pr-sident James Sherman and the entire New York delegation, and with this he is related to the presi dent.
 Adams is still in the race, but he is keeping his pull secret.

Copper company vs. William Allen Gillespie. on appeal from the district court of Graham, the decree was mod fled, so that the company may have time for installing settling basins be- fore permanent injunction shall be issued.
