of it's work.
These decisions, Justice Ross
points out, have shaped the be-
ginning, the growth and welfare Of
the state. They have involved ev-
cry conceivable kind of question
and upon the decisions of the Su-
preme Court in this early, form
ative period will be decided similar
questions in the state for amany
years to come.

statehood and has participated in
practically all the proceedings that

has handed down in the past five
years Justice Ross has written 232,

has equipped him for service in
that court with wisdom, knowl-
edge and experience in the admin
istration Of justice which is of the
highest value to the people of the

Kerby to ask the board of super
viSors in each county not to put his
name on the ballot or on any of
the voting machines.
The retiring candidate served as
assistant attorney general during
the first term of K. Berry Peterson
as attorney general. He resigned in
1880 to enter the race for Maricopa
county attorney. Successful in the
election, he served as county at
torney for two years, 1881 and 1882.
Since leaving that office he has
engaged in the private practice of
his profession in Phoenix.
In announcing his withdrawal
from the race, Mr.. Andrews issued
the following statement:
"I am taking this means of an
nouncing to the people of Arizona
that I am withdrawing from the
race for attorney general. When I
entered this race some three months
ago it was with the sincere belief
that I could win the nomination.
CAS- the campaign progressed,
however, the financial competition
I encountered made 1t increasingly
apparent that it would be impossi-
BILE for me to continue in the race
with any hope of success.
Being of the opinion that the
welfare of Arizona demands the de-
feat of the present attorney general,
am, therefore, requesting that my
friends in Arizona support John L.
Sullivan, whom I believe to be the
strongest candidate and a man who
can ably represent the people Of
Arizona in the office Of attorney
general.
