FLORENCE ALLEGATION MS -- PURPIISH REPLY

NEWS BUREAU, 203 N. E. 4. Bl1gl Phoenix, Arizona. Feb. 22.-1'he suI,. jeet which by far has demanded line attention of the legislature more than my other during the week Is the one relating to the charges aga,nst tbe management of the conyicts at .he state prison. and the petitions from ehe residents of Florence regarding the same. It was agreed Stoday. by both houses. that on Monday s1i5fsl. ing. Feb 24th, at 10:00 a. m. al hear- ing would be held before the special committees heretofore appointed at which time, the matter would be thor. oughly investigated.
 The continued attacks againss. tke administration upon it's prs son auaI- fly, ana the bringing Of the matter before the legislature has caused the governor to issue the following:
 Governors Statement
 To the Senate and House. Gentlemen:
 It having come to my notice that certain charges respecting the man agement of the State Prison. and the prison policy or system of the state administration, have been presented to the state legislature. and an in Iyest'gatiOn requested. I desire to con | vey to you my earnest wish that the request be complied with. and the | fullest and most exhaustive invest | gation held It is unnecessary for me | to suggest, I am sure, that such in yestigation be free from political bias or prejudice, that the real facts may { be arrived at, the conditions ss the, truly exist determined, and the truth made known to the legislature and the people.
 l desire to state, also, that fOl many months the administration has been subjected to the most despica ! ble and foundationless attacks upoT 1 it's prison pOlicy-attacks built upoI falsehood and dependent upon ignor ance and narrow partisan and politi cal prejudice. Since these assaults emanated largely from irresponsible parties, it has not been deemed dig nified or necessary to combat them but the time has arrived when, SOT the good of the service, refutation must be made of the uncalled for islanders heaped upon officers who are honestly. earnestly and I venture to say, successfully striving to do their duty. It is for this purpose that join in the request for an investi- gatiou: while adding the assurance that there shall be no more silent submission, on my part or cn the part of the prison managemeht to the maligant utteTances Of either will ful- or ignorant falsiiieTs. As the of fcers of this administration are ac- cuuntable to the people for their acts so shall the author of every dishon- est charge against these officers be held responsible for his utterances.
 Respectfully,
 GEO. W. P. HUNT,
 Governor of Arizona.
