defeat they suffered.

Since writing first paragraph in

that The Hearst-Harrison forces
had swept city, burying cohorts
of Roger Sullivan, whom Journal

who to sytnpathize with.
Truth is, that neither. knows
just who was elected and wher-
ever there is a chance they are
bolstering up their own courage.

Republicans to Reorganize

Phoenix, Nov. 1S.-Ralph H.. Cameron, republican national com mitteeman, who has been spending the time since election in Los An geles, is expected in Phoenix within the next few days. He will proba- bly, be met by J. L. Hubbell, chair man of the republican state com mittte, and a meeting of the com mittee may be held for the purpose of discussing the future of the party in the state. Several important ap- pointments are to be made in Ari- zona by the president before the ex- piration of his term of office and the committee may consider recommen- dations for these places.
 The term of office of Frank H. Parker, register of the United States land office, expires about the end of the year and the president must name successor unless he allows Parker to hold on and the appoint ment to go over to the Wilson ad- ministration. It is said that Parker has not made application fot reap pointment.
 1t is reported that Robert A. Kirk assistant secretary of the territory under George U. Young, and assist ant secretary of the state commit tee during the recent campaign, is to succeed MT. Parker as register of the land office. If this is true, it is not thought that Kirk will succeed Parker until the l;itter's term ex- pires. There is no contest among republicans for the place, which will probably prove a very short lived job. At least 25 democrats hope to land it after President-elect Wilson is inaugurated.
