PHOENIX, Dec. 24-There were two developments in the gubcrnator- ial situation yesterday. One was the addressing of a letter by Governor Thomas E. Campbell 10 Governor c. w. P Hunt in which the former made the latter the ;9.ge of the tine when the office should be turned over under the opinion or tine Supreme court the latter to assume responsi- bihty for the conduct of tine office and tn: former reserving his right under the Jaw during the fifteen day period in which he could file motion in Su- preme court for Q rehearing. The other development was the address ing by Governor Hunt of a reply to Governor Campbell's letter in which the former assumed no responsibility for the act of Attorney General Wiley t. Jones in making a demand upon Governor Campbell for an immed- fate turning over of the offices and i the office Of governor to Governor Hunt, and expressing willingness tc . await the convenience of Governor ! Campbell in giving possession.
 The letter Of Governor Campbell !. was prepared by him after a con- sultation with his attorneys, and was forwarded to Governor Hunt early in the evening. The letter was as foi- lows:
 December 24, 1917. Sir:
 Tn view of my receipt of letter from the attorney general of the State, instructing me to vacate the of fees and the office of governor Of Arizona and, in further view of the ial, nat Ar. Leroy A. Ladd, acting, as I presume, by your authority, has also indicated your desire for immed- fate possession thereof, | hereby not, fy you Of my willingness to surren- der possession of the executive office, immediately upon receiving notice from you of your desire 10 take such possession.
 Tn this connection, l desire to state that l am advised by my counsel that the judgment Of the Suprem, l court does not take effect until the . termination of the statutory period Of fifteen days, within which a motion for a rehcaring may be filed: and that until the mandate of the Suprcm, court has issued, your title 10 the of flee Is unCOnfirmed
 Nevertheless, in order to avoid even the appearance of an cndeavo, to retain possession of the office dur ing this period, I am willing and de sirous of vacating the same at the earliest moment, consistent with the public interest and I will let you be the judge as 10 what time you shah take possession.
 Tt will be understood, of course, ' that my compliance with your wish : in this matter is to be without pre- judice to any legal rights | may pos i scss at this time and that in the event i you elect to take possession of the of 1 flee in advance of the issuance of the C mandate Of the Supreme court. you r arc 10 assume full responsibility therefor.

4 Part of the Town

Every is part of his town The town EN-
braces the fortunes, and in some measure at least
takes on the character of the man. So loyalty to
ones town is than loyalty ones self. and
this loyalty in line of all well shaped human nature
Therefore it is right to say that the man who does
not stand up for his town is in some way dwarfed
There is something wrong about him His fellows
will pass this judgment upon him, and the chances
are that while ne may add to the discomfort others
he will not escape maxim himself unhappy

10 Am With You Always"

My boy you going to battle
To answer the country's call
You're leaving your home and companions
Friends, loved ones and kindred. all
And all will feel sad at the parting
Which may be the iast-none can know
But do not forget your old Bible
And take it wherever you go.
You may be far off from all kindred
And far from your native land,
But remember the Lord will be with you
If you will but give him your hand
And do not forget at each nightfal1
To kneel by your bedside in prayer;
Pray God to keep you from temptation
And protect you wherever you are
At this same hour now, back at your Odd home
As twilight steals softly on,
Your mother kneels down BY your bedside
And prays fer her boy who IS gone.
Perhaps too the father, in silence
Now prays for his absent son.
And sisters too join in petitions
For blessings on the work you have begun
Your neghbors and friends, to remember
And for you petitions they send;
The Lord says: "Lo I'm with you always
His love and His care hath end,
Sometimes you'll be tempted to wander
Nnere SIN pictures pleasures 50 DIiSIIt
Think, Be true to your God, self and mother
And follow the paths of the right.
Rise up in the strength of your manhood,
Let your service be honest and true,
And remember that back your Old home,
Your loved ones are praying for you,
Keep God as your constant companion,
1t matters not where you may be,
Conide in Him all of your trials
And He Will take care of thee.
Attend to your duties all brayely
With never sign OF fear,
No need for weak mortals to tremble
With such a true friend
Then when you have fought your last battle,
And fast leaves your dying breath,
The Savior will aid in the struggle
And help you to conquer death.
AS he helped in your earthly conflicts
And guarded you safe from all harm,
So He'll guide you across Deaths river
With his everlasting
-Addle Lynch

When It's Apple Blossom Time in Arkansas

When It's Apple Blossom Time IN Arkansas
List We that love Dame Nature,
And ye that love the fair,
While | tell you of country
That is far beyond compare.
This land is filled with sunshine
With flowers and sunny dew,
With beauty far excelling,
With pleasures ever new
And even as in Scotland,
IT'S the bonny breezes baw;
IT'S as bssful there as heaven
When it's apple blossom time in Arkansas.
Her crystal springs babbling,
And laughing in mirth;
It's the fairest spot that ever
God placed upon this earth.
The soul is ever happy,
The spirit free from care;
There is not nook left vacant.
Nor tiny spot left bare.
But when the tiny buds start swelling
And the ice begins to thaw
Then you may know it's coming
Apple blossom time in Arkansas.
Her rocks and mountains differ
From any ever seen,
And cen the bees hum softer
As in blissfu dream;
Ts chosen spot of Eden,
Tie heaven set apart
For the lover of old nature
For the longing, weary heart.
IT'S one spot where all are happy,
And even the crows wierd
Sounds like heavenly music
When it's apple blossom time in Arkansas.

To Make Law Breakers

Since the passage of the "Bone Dry law in Ark
ansas people have not been troubled with whiskey
circulars, but Sunday morning we picked up one IN
the postoice lobby where it had been thrown by the
recipient. 1t read follows:
Did you know that you could get all the whiskey
you want-f you let me ship it to nearby town
in Missouri?
Lots of Arkansas folks order from me every day
and ship the goods to a Missouri town where they get
it without any trouble whatever.
"If you good whiskey in your house
get up an order now. Mail it to and give the
name of your nearest Missouri town.
| will ship by return express and will notify you
so you will know the goods at the Missouri Elk
press Office when you get there.
And listen. Don't forget that if you want pure
grain alcohol for medicinal purposes, you get it
from me, and | ship it right to your town
The Arkansas Bone Dry law allows you to order
alcahol for medicinal purposes.
With such evidence of the intent of the whiskey
dealers of Missouri make law breakers bootleg
gers of people, it behooves officers to be
the watch for the introduction of liquors into this
state. Quite number of the vlolators of the law
have been captured and fined during the last week
two and is pretty dangerous business at the best
