 Of his death the Republican says:
 Allan B. .Baynes, national Repub- lican committeeman for Arizona, and editor and managing director of the Tucson Citizen, died last night at his home a Tucson, after an illness of q little more than two weeks. When Mr. Jaynes was first stricken it was believed that he was suffering from Appendicitis, and an investigation disclosed that diagnosis was correct but an abscess was discovered that first demanded treatment. That was cleared, but Mr. Jayncs by that time had become so weakened by disease and by his labors during the cam paign that he succumbed, although on Saturday night hope was held out for his recovery. Mr. Jaynes' last visit to Phoenix on official business connected with the campaign was less than two weeks ago. He was then quite i'll, but the serious nature of his malady was not then sus pectcd.
 AIr Jaynes was born in Columbus, Ohio, where he resided until he came to rizona nearly 20 years ago. lie was 41 years old. He was graduated from the Ohio State university, where he was classmate of an elder brother of Dean William Scarlett. and lived across the street from the residence of the parents of Dean Scarlett
 On arriving in Arizona, MT. Jaynes 1. settled at Tucson, where in company i with George II. Smalley he was en- gagged ill the publication of a weekly ! paper. Soon thereafter he was ap- | pointed clcerk of the district court for Pima county in the First judicial district, the appointment being made by Judge George R. Davis, then as sociate justice of the territorial su- preme court and presiding judge oi that district. Judge Davis had known ! MT. Jaynes in Ohio.
 About 109 Mr. Jaynes became as sociated with Frank H. Hitchcock, former postmaster general, and James T. Williams. IT,, for the pur- chase of the Tucson Citizen. Mr. Jaynes was the business manager of the Citizen and MT. Williams the editor The latter had previously been a member of the United States civil service commission MT. Will Hams remained at that, post until 1912, when he went to the Boston i Transcript, for which he had been Washington correspondent as its ed itor, a position he still holds, though | he has retained his interest in the Citizen. He was succeeded as editor by Mir. Jaynes.
 The latter took an active part in the Republican politics of this state and four years ago he was elected . member for Arizona of the Republic an national committee. He was re- elected at the last reorganization of the committee.
 Returning from the national con vention at Chicago, he took fore most part ir the campaign, not on'y in this state, but in the general work of the national committee His ill., ness has been traced to the weaken ing effect of his labors during the last three months.
 Mr. Jaynes was an accomplished /. man and a most aggres- sivc onc though a fair one He made of the Citizen one of the influential . journals of the southwest Though it's party politics were at times se-
