A Recall of
 Recall Petition

A petition carrying 13 of the l6 names on the original petition for the recall of Constable Jenkins of Cochise hes been received by Clerk Maclsy Of the board of supervisors asking that DO action be taken by the board on the original petition and vithdrswing theretrom on the ground that an e1- rensive election will not justify the action.
 Thus another phafe o' the first re- call petition in Arizona develops and in this case presents the peculiar anomoly Of . recall of the recall.
 The $25 900 suit for damages filed against the petitioners by the constable has not, up to date, been recalled, but on the contrary may be legally pressed harder than ever.
 Whether any further suits, legal entanRlenen,s or factiopal enc,un ters follow in the wake of the bitterness engendered remain to be seen; mesn- while DO legal action will be taken Ou the recall by the supervisors since the filing o' the second petition.
