G. WOBBLY HUNT MAY
 AGAIN BE CANDIDATE

PHOENIX, July 26.-The race for the Democratic nomination for gov ernor is on in earnest with Fred T. Coulter, Democratic national com mitteeman, and Sidney P. Osborn in the lead. w. A. Moeur, State land commissioner, has announced that he is not candidate but he is the dark horse who is bothering both Golfer and Osborn, both of whom have all ready made several tours of the State in the interest of their respective can didacieS.
 Wiley Jones has been mentioned, but it is believed that the attorney general will be content to run again for his old job.
 There is a growing sentiment among the Democrats in favor of the renomination of former Governor c. "Wobbly' P. Hunt, to give him his latest nickname. Those friends, who enjoyed office under the governor. are making a drive for him to "come back" They arc telling him that he owes it to himself to seek vindication at the polls and restoration to the office "of which he was robbed by the courts"
 That the former governor still has a strong hold on the Democratic party and would make a formidable race for the nomination, is generally admitted by politicians on both sides at the capital. It is believed that Osborn will retire and run again for secretary of State if Hunt gets back in the race for governor. Golfer is in to stay, having already spent con siderable money on his campaign and opened headquarters.
 The campaign is going to be long one. Some Democrats are admitting that neither Golfer nor Osborn nor even Hunt will stand the slightest show against Tom Campbell, who is making a popular executive and are trying to persuade Carl Hayden to rescue the party. Hayden is turning deaf ear to their pleadings, having definitely determined to stand for con gross again next year and make the race for the Democratic nomination for the senate in 1920.

MURPHY ESTATE S2OO,OO0 IN
 PETITION
WILL OF LATE FRANK M. MURPHY IS FILED FOR PROBATE; EIGHT ARE NAMED AS BENZ FICIARIES OF ESTATE.
(From Saturdays Daily.)

The will of Hon. Frank M. Murphy, who died in this city on June 23rd, was filed with petition for its ad mission to probate yesterday. It or dered the disposal of an estate fixed for the purposes of the petition, at the sum of $2OO,OOO, and names Mrs. Ethel Mary Murphy, wife of the de- ceased, as the chief beneficiary. A. w. Edwards, a close business asso- ciate of Mir. Murphy's was bequeath- ed S20,OO0 in cash. Other cash be- queaths were S50O0 each for Mrs Homer Hollister, of Bristol, Wiscon- sin; Mrs. F. E. Stevens, of the same place: Mrs. Frank Lane, of Kenosha, Wisconsin, sisters of the deceased; George and Helen Meany and George D. Morris, $500 each. Helen Meany's S2,500 is to be paid in 100 monthly installments.
 It IS directed in the will, which was signed August 1, 19l6, that c. E. Meany, Mrs. Murphy and c. D. Nor ris be named executors without bond. A codicil signed April 3rd this year, substitutes Edward Gushec for Nor ris and a second codicil signed May 2nd this year, substitutes Thomas c. Norris for Gushee.
 The will is a remarkable document, comprising several parts. In the first part, it is ordered that the estate be divided into two equal parts. One part is to go to the widow untouched; the other is to be used for payment of the debts of the deceased and for payment of the several cash bequests named therein. In the second part, is found a memorandum of certain indebtedness contracted by the de- ceased while engaged in the adminis tration of the affairs of his numerous financial and development enter prises. Following these notes is the following statement: If 1 am given a chance and my life is spared for few years, I will see that everybody is fully satisfied"
 There is also a memorandum of life insurance carried by Mir Murphy, with premiums, principal, amount of loans contracted, interest, and other details carefully tabulated. The orig inal total of the premiums was S4O,OOO but this is reduced by loans to S24,- S22, and of this, S3,0O0 is Santa Fe insurance.
 Petitioners for the probate Of the will are Meany, Mrs. Murphy and T. c. Norris. The case was set for hearing on August 10th, at which time it is expected appraisers will be named.

ARTHURGOODMAN IS BITTEN BY
 RATTLESNAKE
HE APPLIES THE INDIAN REMEDY TO WOUN ID AND ESCAPES SERIOUS RESULTS; WAS WORK ING AT HIS FARM.
(From Fridays Daily.)

Arthur Goodman, ono of the best known farmers of near Skull valley, was the victim of rattlesnake bite yesterday forenoon at about 10 o'clock while engaged at work in the field, and by the prompt application of an Indian remedy which he knew, his life was probably saved. He was struck on the calf of the left leg, and the bite was to the full depth of the fangs, two wounds being inflicted.
 Realizing his peril in neglecting treatment, Goodman returned to his home without attempting to kill the reptile, and hastily made up remedy composed of the following household articles which he had on hand: Two tablespoonfuls of salt, one-third of plug of chewing tobacco, and one large onion, all being ground together, and from which poultice was made. In a few minutes after placing this simple remedy on the two wounds the pain lessened, when he deemed 1t ad- visable to come in his auto to the city to consult physician. He suffered but little, and while his leg is swollen the danger period seems to have passed. Before placing the poulticc in position, Goodman opened up the wounds with a penknife, and the emitting of the poisonous virus in stantly followed. He states this anti dote is used by Indians for reptile bites and if promptly applied no dam ger results. It is known to white people, also, and several cases of snake bites have yielded to this rem edy, not a death taking place if inn mediate attention was given.
 Goodman states the body of the snake was fully three inches thick and he was struck while walking in the grass. He is drafted for military duty, and will probably remain in the city to appear before the examining board

(From Fridays Dahy0

Cases set in the Superior court for the latter part of this month will be heard by some other judge beside Judge Lyman, who has announced his intention of taking his vacation shortly. Either the cases will be set over until the latter part of August, when Judge Smith can come back, or else some other judge will be called in for the July term.

Two of the most important ones are for determination of the legal ownership of stock in the Hull Copper Company and the Je- rome-Portland Copper Company. These suits involve many thousands of dollars worth of valuable mining stock.
 On July 3lst, Judge Sawtelle will be in Prescott. according to report, to prepare for the August term of the United States District court. Copies of the docket have not yet been made up, so. there is no list of i'm portant actions available A number of civil cases were continued until the August term at the last session here in March.

JEROME MEN TO
 BEAT DRAFT; ENLIST
(From Fridays Daily.)

Six Jerome young men arc not go- ing to await the draft if they can help 1t. They prefer to select a branch of service rather than be selected for service. In spite of gloomy predic- tions by misinformed friends, they loaded into an automobile and drove to Prescott yesterday to consult re- cruiting authorities for the navy and the First Arizona.
 The upshot of it is that four, at least, of the six, will go into the First Arizona on Sunday and be on their way to the San Diego cantonment by the time the drafted men are being examined by the exemption boards.
 The party included F. V. Hunter, Ike Niles, Herb Thayer, Shorty" Allen and V. H. Bundy.
 For the information of others caught in the draft, ii is again stated on the authority Of both Lieutenant Anderson of the First Arizona and Vim Sieckmann, naval recruiting of- icer, that until official notice of the draft is posted in Prescott, all resi- dents of the county are allowed to en- list in any branch of the service they prefer. It is thought the official mo- tice will come early next week.

PIONEER ZERO MINE
 AGAIN IS ACTIVE
(From Saturdays Daily)


 Among the noteworthy movements of late in mining, that of the resump- ton of the Zero, famed in early days as a silver bonanza, is occasioning considerable interest by new develop ment given during the past two months. A. C. Gilmore, the owner, with ]. C. Bradbury, has formed a close association in this city with those who are conversant with the past record made by this property. and the driving of 226-foot tunnel on the north end of the Zero vein IS making good headway, reaching to date about 70 feet. One foot of paystreak carrying bromide of silver is shown, and indications prevail that when greater depth IS reached the tonnage of high grade will prove re- munerative for the investment made.
 The original workings where the ore values averaged Sl70 to the ton with silver at SO cents an ounce, will not be operated for the present The Zero now active is near the Perry, which adjoins on the north.
