Legislative Agents Reg ister at Phoenix for
 Hearing Privileges
NO QUARREL EXISTS

PHOENIX, April 5.-Rising to a question of personal privilege in sen ate on Thursday, Wood of Maricopa county called the attention of his col leagues to dispatch published in the Review several days ago in which he was quoted as being disgnsted with the sidestepping opinion of Bullard, the attorney general. given the senate in connection with the consideration by that body of the six mile liquor law. Senator Wood did not wish to have the impression go ont that he was dis. gusted with Mir Bullard. He did not say that he was disgusted, but did say that he wanted a more definite and certain opinion and then offered a number of resolutions 10 obtain such which the senate proceeded to hastily lay on the table
 Your correspondent misinteTpreted the situation. It nov develops that Senator Wood and Bullard had con. ferred concerning the opinion in ques ton, not however. agreeing as to what the same should contain. And the gentleman from Maricopa county was disgusted. his disgust being with the entire situation concerning the con sideratiOn and passage over the gov. Crnors veto of the six mile liquor law and not with the attorney general alone.
 It might be added that it is a diff. cult matter to interpret with whom Senator Woods of Maricopa is dis gusted when he is such for it is se!- dom that the situation presents itself thus affording opportunity fer diagno sis
 Votes for Women Up.
 Mondays senate will take up con sideration of women suffrage measure as proposed in the bill introduced early in the session by Senator Hughes of Pima county A public meeting of the committee on constitutional amendments has been called by Sen ator Kinney the chairman of that com mittee and it is certain that at least one advocate Of the adoption of the measure will be heard This Is Mrs. F. E. O'Neil of Phoenix and it is possible others who are members of the Ari' Zona Equal Suffrage league will ap- pear.
 Just what strength the bill has in the senate is hard to calculate. Th& question is not so much what the ul- innate action will be as to when final action will be taken. Senate is about equally divided with each side having declared votes of eight each. This leaves three members undecided ana they realizing the advantage of their position desire tc hold the settlement of question open until they have se- cured enactment of their various pc. measures.

 Craig ExpIaines Position.
 Dr Craig. one of the active members Of the house. who makes Bisbee his home has called the attention of yodT correspondent to the fact that 1t IS an easy matter to misinterpret men, ber's position on a measure having in mind the woman suffrage bill. So far he has not not announced his per sonal attitude on equal suffrage, yet he has been listed as voting against the passage of suffrage bill now in house. He takes the position that this proposed amendment to the constitu- ton should not be put up to the peo' ple through the medium of the refer endum but should be passed over by the legislature and if desired by any large number of citizens of state let them propose same by initiating law Accordingly he has consistently voted against the bill at present before the
