JESUS OTERO DEAD

                         _______

A Pioneer of Phoenix and a Good Citizen
_____
  	
Jesus Otero died at Los Angeles on Sunday. The remains will be 
brought here for burial this morning. No particulars describing 
the cause of death have been received by the relatives here. Mr. 
Otero had not been in excellent health during the last two or 
three years but he could not be said to be in ill health. Early 
last summer he went with Mrs. Otero to the coast to remain until 
fall, as he had done every summer for several years. 

	
Mr. Otero was seventy years of age; he was a native of Mexico, but 
he had lived so long in this part of the country that he became a 
citizen under the Gadsden treaty. He was a cousin of Governor 
Otero of New Mexico. He leaves a family consisting of a wife 
and seven children, all of whom are here except one daughter, 
who resides in Los Angeles. Jesus was a good and quiet citizen, 
and in the early days of Phoenix took a deep interest in public 
affairs.
