Statement that He Is "Not

yer and candidate for United States
senator for Arizona, met Mike G..

corridor of the Lawlor block where
the attorney has offices.
Ashurst met Burns and confronted
him with Mike, / hear that you are
opposing my candidacy for senator,
declaring that I'm not in the race"
Burns confessed that he had given
expression to such sentiments and
Ashurst hotly retOrted, Then, sir.
l can conceive of no higher honor
than to be opposed by a scOundrei
like you"
That was the signal for hostilities.
Burns, according to an eye witness.
shot out his right and landed on the
attorneys face. Ashurst promptly
retaliated with a right and left up
percut and Burns lost further in
terest in the proceedings.
The attorney did not follow up his
advantage. He is a younger man Of
athletic build and did not care, so
he was reported, TO make mince
meat of his antagonist. Neither of
the combatants showed marks of the
encounter. When interviewed Burns
was asked to give his version OF the
affair. but he refused to discuss il.
Ashurst was more communicative and
did not resent the inquiries that were
made.
While admitting that he and Burns
had come to blows, he declined to
go into the details, saying he pre-
ferred that such information be Civ
en- by some acknowledgement.
In political circles the fight Great
ed sensation when the news gained
circulation. principally because of the
prominence Of the principals.
Ashurst for many months. has
been an outspoken candidate for sen

comes a state. He was chairman Of
the convention that nominated the
delegates TO the constitutional con-
vention. In the last legislature Burns
was Yavapars representative in the
