GOVERNOR IS
 KEEPING QUIET
What He Hasn't Said About Calling an Extra Session Is Sufficient to Make Many Large Sized Volumes

 As member of the real southern fire eating fraternity the Honorable X. C. Curry. representative from Co., ,hi~c county in the legislature of the state of Arizonl, Is entitled to hon. orable mention. if not to a mccall At the session of the house last night he got his antipathy to the colured race and his animosity to Speaker sam Bradner mixed tO suck an extent that, angcred at ruling made by the speaker, he denounced him as a "nigger lover" Bradrer promptly called the sergeant-at-arma and caused the violent MT. Curry to be ejeoted from yh, hall Lat=r Curry came back and apofogized.

 The question of a special session is still open to debate, though there is no doubt about the effort of the legisla- tlr" to clean up most of the important bills before it now without adj0urning Whatever is left will go by the board of course as only such subjects can be handled in a special session as the gov ernor indicates. The prevailing gossip yesterday was that the work would continue, under the date of the 18th FDar1oharl. of nothing. in the hope of finishing at noon today. It is more than likely though that it will take all day ana perhaps tonight The same rumor is that a special session win be called to convene next Thursday though the governors public conversation on the subject is very much like the oratOry of an oyster.
