 adopted strong and almost violent
 resolutions for a general state cleo
 tion to be held in the coming NoVem-
 Der.
 Previous to this action, the vacan-
 cies were filled by the election of
 James NJ. Kirby assessor of Greenlee
 county to be secretary of the com
 mittee in place of George Nicholson

 wanted in the session last fall and
 during the aftermath. Mark L. Dun
 bar was made assistant to Mir. Kirby

 to fill the vacancy caused by the re- signation of Charles Howe and Selim

R Gardener. | The following are the resolutions 1 in favor of an election next fall: Whereas, it was believed by the l democratic constitutional convention 1 of Arizona, that a general election 1 for state. county and legislative of fices would be held in 1912, and bi- 1 ennially thereafter, and,
 l Whereas nominations were made l throughout Arizona in 1911 for all | offices. by the democracy of Arizona. with the unanimous belief that the terms of all such offices would ex-
 pire on January 1st, 1913. and a gen. eral election would be held in 1912: and
 l Whereas, pursuant to such expres- ] cir r+ l of the entire body of the people of | Arizona, most active and extensive l campaign was made by our demo- l cratic nominees which resulted in m | overwhelming victory through Ari- zona for the democratic cause; there | fore, in order that strict faith may be kept with the people to whom that solemn pledge has been made, and Whereas the governor has recom- mended that an election be held in 1 the year 1912.
 l Be it Resolved, that by executive l committee of the state of Arizona, | that it is imperative that a general | election for all state, county and pre- | cinct offices in the state shall be 1 held at the regular time in November 1912, and that a failure to hold such l election, is emphatically against the interests of the democracy of the state and subjects our party to the l charge of betraying the confidence Of
 the people to whom we owe the vic tory which we so grandly won.
 Be it further Resolved. That the chairman and secretary of the com mittee are hereby directed to forward a copy hereof to the president of the senate, speaker of the house of rep fesentatives, and the governor.

 democrats should leave so early, but
 they want to stop in Chicago so a:
 l to be there on June IS and succeeding
 days to see how a really h3rmOniou: national convention is conducted. A ftarnoOn Goat 0f
