AND MORE ARE 10 COME
Here's a List of Intellectual Giants, Each One of Whom Is Ready and Willing to Serve His Grand New State.

These are the days when the dcm- ocratlc brethren who are willing tC inmolate themselves on the altar of the public service are casting about Tor such perquisites. emoluments and slnecures as some other more fore. handed statesman has not alread, nailed down. Without indulging in any remarks about the public criF or anything of that sort. it must he said that the number of gentlemen who are willing to be attached tc the public payroll and save their country at so much per. is little short of astonishing IL is probable mat the number of democratic breth- Ten willing tO make this great sacri- ice Tor the good of the cause. and incidentally for what there is in it Is equal to just about 90 per cent .of the qualified electorate of that party.
 Just for instance. take that mag .nificent ensemble of wisdom. intelli- gence, and patriotism that made up the constitutional convention. There were 42 democrats in that body and the latest roll call shows that about S5 of them are candidates for some thing-and the returns are not all Tn. This, of course, excludes Crutch- Held, who has been chosen president of college up in Washington some where and who will not be in our joyous midst when the good things are handed round.
 But about all the others haze
 
 to do their humble best in taking care of the jobs MT President "Gwp' Hunt has been so patiently. pertinaciously, pointedly. persistentIy and positively in pursuit of the gubernatorial will-o- -the-wisp that further mention of him and his ef- forts seems superfluous. It is notice able, though, that at every opportunity MT. Hunt gives out one of this. pre- shrunk, re-enforced pronuncimentos in which he says that the liberties guaranteed by our matchless consti- tuition must forever remain sacred and withered be the hand Of that tyrant who would pluck from the gee e-lorious character of human free dom one single syllable whether it be the hand of the oppressor whom a mistaken people put in the White House or the hand of that Weedin person who thinks he can put one over on me in this race for the power that creates is the power that has the right to recall and he who would say less than this is not worthy of the suffrages Of the en- frightened citizenship of the great and sovereign state of Arizona and what do you think of me as a can didate for governor anyway
 Of course MT. Hunt doesn't put it in just that language but it's all to the same general purpose.
 Now there's Mulford Winsor who wants to go to congress and Lamar Cobb who wants to go to congress and M. G Cunniff who wants to go to congress and Tom Feeney who wants to go to congress. There are some other Of the convention gentle men who want to go to congress. but this isn't a congressional directory.
 Then it is said that Baker is will ing to be a judge and that Franklin and Ellinwood and several others who own the law as their mistress are playing Barkis engagements But just what would happen to Ellin- wood. who has been known to try lawsuits for corporations and who voted "agin" the recall. in the event his tentative candidacy should become fact. is not hard to fOrsee.
 That's a pretty fair list. and it doesn't include Jones of Maricopa' who would like to serve on the rail- way commission: Sid Osborn, who thinks he's the right complexion to make a good secretary Of state. or Fred Ingraham, who seems just little late in making his announce ment. But Fred has been out of the territory. which explains number of things.
 This doesn't exhaust the delegate list. by any means; but it does show where a fine big swarm of political bees are buzzing.
 The legislative bee is especially busy. and the number of men who are qualifying as law makers for the new state is little short of marvellous. There are a few of them right here in Phoenix, including Wood and Davis and Jacobs and Leyhe. This list is mere a nucleus that will at tract a good many others into the race
 The senatOrship has been discussed so rnan.- times and often there is nOth-
