The nominations made by the Democrats of Arizona at the primary election on Tuesday last for the first state officials in the new state, fortunately for the party, were distributed to all parts ot the state. One United States Senator has been chosen from the northern tier of counties. Hon. Mark Smith is the choice from the South. Maricopa county, strong democratic County, has been honored with the Representative in Congress and Secretary of State Gila will be the home of the next Governor of Arizona. The Su- preme Judges and the corporation commissioners have been evenly distributed. There is no complaint in the democratic party as a result of the primaries throughout the state. There was difference of personal preference among the democratic voters but the campaign was singularlY free from pit terness. Opposing candidates in variably spoke in complimentary terms of each other. The demo- cratic press of the state is in a position to give its endorsement to the entire ticket.
 Candidates who were not suc- cessful in the primaries are wiring the nominees of their hearty sup port Happily, the result of the primaries has left no rupture in the ranks of the democrats and every indication points to com Plete democratic victory Tn De- cembe-.
