Phoenix,e Ariz.. Jan. 1t
was reported about the cap
-tol building with an assur-
ance amounting to certainty
that former Governor Camp
bell had been definitely Sc
lected for the Office of secre-
tary of the interior. One
very close to the governor,
however. said that the report
was without foundation,
though he stated that the
governor had been offered
an assistant secretaryship in
another department.
On the same authority,
the rumor of the appoint
ment of the former governor
to the Mexican ambassador
ship was disposed of by the
statement that it was not
