SUFFER TG BE A CANDIDATE IN
 PRIMARY
Consents to Run for Nomination for Governor-FoIlows Expressions of
 Conference of Democrats in Capital.

PHOENIX, March 12.-(Special. Following a conference of prominent democrats from different parts of the state, held here today, it was defin- itely decided to circulate a petition nominating as a primary candidate former Superior Judge Fred Sutter, of Cochise county for the democratic nomination for governor.
 Sutter, who was in the city on business before the corporation com mission, was seen by the committee and consented to make the canvas.
 Prior to his departure for his home tonight, he gave out a statement in which he said that he had taken no part in the calling of the conference, nor had he attended any of it's meet ingS, believing that all members of the party should at the primary select their nominee. He would, however, campaign in every county.
 At the conference there were about twenty present, every county but Co., chise being represented in the gath ering, which is considered to have been a very representative one of the leaders of democracy. Sutters se- lection was the result of a canvas of the strength of all the names that have been mentioned, with result of conclusion that he would poll the greatest vote.
 Subsequent to the conference it be- came known that George Olney was more than willing to step out of the gubernatorial race in favor of Judge Sutter. MT. Olney very reluctantly consented a month ago, following the state central committee meeting
 known Democrat who saw him in Tucson a few days ago says that he has given up all idea of running for governor. This same Democrat, once a warm Worsley supporter for the governorship, is not Hunt man.

THE TANGO BUG.

The tango bug has hit the town,
And hit 1t hard, Is right
And everything Is Tango now,
At morning, noon or night.
Unless you're strictly tango,
Then you're sadly out Of date.
The thrilling, killing, tango bug,
The greatest OF the great
Mother wears tango coat,
That fits her like a sack.
And father sports tango vest,
That buttons on the back.
Sisters tango outfit Is a
Stunning sight to see.
And brothers tango trouser-legs,
Are split below the knee.
To start the day correctly,
Comes a tango bath at first.
A nip Of tango toddy. just TO
Quench a tango thirst.
And then a tango breakfast,
OF some tango buckwheat cakes,
Some tango rolls and mullins,
And some tango toasted fakes.
We motor to the Office
In a tango limousine,
And call our pet stenographer,
Our little tango queen.
The tango Office boy cuts In,
And hears a lot too much,
And strings US for dollar,
Which he calls a tango touch.
We beat II TO the movies
II there's tango on the bill,
And hear a tango orchestra,
And tango vaudeville.
The chorus ia a thriller,
With its tango suffragettes,
Arrayed In tango atmosphere,
And tango cigarettes.
We meet a little tango girl,
With tango yellow hair,
A tango supper follows
From a tango bill OF fare.
A tango walter tangos In
And serves US with a load
OF tango soup and tango chop,
And tango a Ia mode.
We sip our tango coffee,
AS we risk a heeting glance,
To see the tango dancers,
In the giddy tango dance.
The tango spell Is on Us,
In a way we can't resist.
The tango claret thrills us.
And We see as through a mist.
The tango tunes are soothing
As the motion Of ship.
We feel ourselves a slipping.
And We murmur let 'er slip"
We ask the tango favor
or our little tango girl,
And would tango on forever,
In the merry tango Whirl.
We tango slowly homeward,
Rather shy OF tango cash.
Our tango footprints trail us.
Like the curying calabash.
We tango into dreamland.
Where the world Is upside down.
And our prayers are quite forgottel
Since the tango came TO town
