JOHN NY bEHAN ; ASKS FOR SUPER

Former Cochise County Sheriff
 Wants Home of Pioneers

That John H. Behan, once of Co chise county, but now of Pima, first sheriff of that county and we'll known to all the old timers is seeking an ap- pointment under the new state govern ment is a statement contained in the Arizona Democrat Johnny Behan is still remembered here and his scores of friends will wish him sue cess in his project.
 The Democrat publishes the follow ing:
 John H. Behan of Tucson, one of the gallant old pioneers of Arizona is a candidate for the position under the incoming democratic state admini- stration of superintendent of the pion- eer's homeI at Prescott, according to an announcement made by him in this city.
 Behan is one of the very few men who came to Arizona in the early days who is now alive, and has the support of every member of the old brigade of democrats, for the position to which he now aspires.
 Behan has represented more coun- ties of Arizona in office than any oth- CT man in the state. In the year 1867 he was elected recorder of Yava- pal county and afterward he was el- ected to the legislature from Mohave county and when the county of Co chise was formed he was appointed the first sheriff by Governor John c. Fremont.

JEROME WILDLY EXCITED
 OVER OIL STRIKE

JEROME-Jerome and the Verde valley are wildly excited over oil The excitement that has been seeth- ing for months has been brought to fever heat by a report that a Yuma company, which has been drilling a well across the river from Camp Yer de, has struck petroleum.
 Details are lacking but persons ar irving at Jerome from Camp Verde declare. the reports are true. The gen. eral impression is that oil has been found on top of the water and that no flow has been struck yet, though no one doubts that the drill is enter ing great pool of petroleum.
 The Jerome Oil company has spent $4,700 for drill rig and is boring a well six miles east of Jerome, near Cottonwood. A Tempe company is preparing to drill on the Middle Yer de.

LEGISLATURE WILL HAVE T0 EXPEDITE
 WORK ATT PHOENIX
Twenty-Seven Laws Are PrOvid- ed For by the Convention.
 Little Time is Left

PHOENIX, Feb. "A. A. Worsley state senator-elect from Pima county and we'll known as a political econo mist is conferring in Phoenix today with Senators-elect H. A. Davis and c. B.. Wood of Maricopa, with whom he will be associated in the first state legislature.
 Worsley came over from Tucson for the purpose of arranging for his stay here later. as lawmaker .. He called on Attorney General Bullard, and talk . ed with him about proposed legisla- tion
 q find on reading the constitution, that there are some twenty-seven laws that should be passed if we are to carry out the spirit of the constitution and comply with the wishes of the convention which framed it" said Sen ator Worsley this morning.
 T feel that the enactment of these laws should be one of the first consid- erations of the legislature, in order to keep perfect faith. with the people of the new state, who have declared for : progressive form of government.
 T believe that sixty days will be a short period to do all that is required of us, and in order to accomplish as much as possible we should dispose of such matters as we can agree upon without debate in the early part of the session.
 Tt would save time if we could di- vide between the two houses such of the mandates in the constitution as can be passed without division and get them in shape for passage. The very best advice should be obtained and every law, before it is enacted, so framed that it will stand the test of the courts.
 If each house will agree to accept the matters passed on by the other we can get the routine work out of the way early in the session, and leave the greater part of the time for the consideration of laws over which there is division of opinion
 Our statutes must be codified and it would be of great value to the man who is to do this if he could be se- lected when the legislature begins it's session If he could be with us every day it would materially assist him in the work he is to do. -;a'fte-se.
 T am in favor of the legislature submitting the question of woman's suffrage to vote of the people. It is due the women of the new state to give them an opportunity to se- cure the right to vote. if majority of the qualified electors want them to have it, and it is in keeping with the form of government we have adopted to submit these matters to the people.
