election for November of this year.
 Other important matters which will agitate the assembly and senate be- fore the session is very far upon it's merry way is the election of United States senators. set for March 26th and which has developed into race with New Mexico to see which shall elect first and thereby secure the long terms. The New Mexico election is set for the 18th but the Arizonans are passing their hope on an expected deadlock to agree on the several can didates. The election in this state is perfunctory. and will take but short time, the senators already having been chosen in primary
 grand jury law must be passed almost immediately in order that the superior courts may proceed with the criminal work which in several coun- tics is already more or less cOngcsted.
 The school land question is another one which will he thrashed out. A meeting of the lesees has been call eG for next Saturday morning at which time either the Kibbey or Ling bill will be adopted. Petitions are being circulated this week in all school sections favorable to the Ling act. and this able measure is looked upon with favor by many of ths leSsees who believe that it will be more satisfactory and less expensive as well as giving them forty years in which to acquire their land.
 Woman's suffrage is ghost that will not down. and although many members are frankly loath to tackle the question it is likely to be forced upon them early in the session.
 Appropriation bills. good road bills public building bills. county division bills. and pet measures Of many vari- cites will fully occupy the time and talents of the members of the legis- lature during the sixty days allotted to the session.
 This leads to the extra session talk and no man knOweth which way the cat jumpeth. There is more business already blocked out than three and half hard working legislatures could accomplish in sixty days The ques- ton is will the surplus business be sidetracked. or will the governor call an extra session and if he does call an extra session when will it be held? It will be nearly the first Of June before the session legally ends. and if the estimates are correct that two months additional will be re- quired to wind up the business sev eral well meaning hired hands are apt to earn their seven plunks per diem by the literal sweat of their manly brows. A compendium of knowledge on this moot point reduces itself to a composite opinion that
 First-Sixty days will be long enough to do all the business there is to do.
 Second-Sixty days will be all too short to accomplish the high mark of I perfection toward which the faces Of the patriots are "sot.''
 Third-The governor will call an extra session immediately after the regular session automatically ends.
 Fourth-The governor will permit | the worn out statesmen to go to their 1 homes for a summer vacation and | reassemble them about the time the | state fair is rampant, and the frost | Garnishes the pumpkin back in "Iowy." |
 Fifth-If a new set of legislators is | to be elected in November the re- problems will be passed along | to them at the next regular session. l which in the event of a general | election in November would begin | January 1st. 1913
 Aside from these expressed views l there is little division of opinion.
 The democrats will caucus Saturday 1 night. and again on Sunday
 And probably Sunday night
 FAIR WEATHER COMING.
