The following paragraphs, which will be read with much interest by the people Of Arizona, we find in the Sacramento Uaioa of May 18th. The aim of the latter company would seem somewhat extensive, and should the work be prosecuted to completion in Ari. zona, instead of being holden forth al captan- d1m rulgEs at San Francisco, it might justly he regarded as a master stroke of speculative skill:
 An association to be known as the Pinalcoo Coal Mining Company, to operate in the Ter ritory of Arizona, at mine already dscoy- cred, about sixty miles from the proposed route of the Southern Pacific Railroad Com. pany, was formed in this city last evening. Eighteen members of the company, well armed and equipped, under the direction of the President, will proceed to the grounds sometime before the close of the month, to develop the claim.
 There were filed yesterday in the office of the Secretary of State articles of incorpora- ton of the Arizona Mining and Water Con- pany, organized to carry on the business of mining and extracting gold, silver and other precious metals from the Tiger, Lone Star. Eclipse and Eureka veins, in Yavapai county. Arizona Territory, and elsewhere with water. by conducting the waters of Big Canyon, be. low Walnut Grove, on the Hassayampa river. in the aforesaid county, by means of ditches, aqueducts and pipes to the various counties of the Territory.

The Mail to Albuquerque.

The rapidly growing importance of this section of Arizona, occasioned principally through the recent discovery and develop ment of mines of gold and silver at the Bradshaw mountain and the consequent in- gress of population from the neighboring States and Territories, would seem sufficient to settle the claim of the people of North ern Arizona to mail facilities of a renewed and better order than the semlindifferent sys- fem Of mail service to which we have been accustomed. We need mail service on the 35th Parallel route-from Albuquerque to Prescott; we have felt the need of service on this route, and now, to A greater extent than at any time heretofore, do we feel the inconvenience of that mail service which condemns us to wait for term of twenty to twenty five days to obtain tbe latest sc- counts from the nearest point in New Mex. leo. In November last . certain trickster manipulated a certificate of election @ Del. egAte from Arizona. This creature is. or should be, in Washington st the present time; should be attending to the interests of those whom he faunts ss his constituents. He claims for himself unlimited popularity and wonderful intiuencei here, then, is an op- portunity offered him to establish his claim. His constituents" bsre demand mail sery- ice oH tine eastern route and the Delegate Is, certainly, the proper person to sttend to this matter.

Ehe Proper Remedy.

How much more effective State action can
be made in suppressing internal disorders
than any form of Federal interference that
it is possible to devise, is shown by the &C
ton of the Radical Governor Alcorn, of
Mississippi. He notified the President that
there was no need Of interference in that
State by Congress or any body else, as the
people were entirely competent to maintain
order, and Federal Intervention would sg-
gravate and not diminish the evil. On
Friday last he sent q message to the
Mississippi Legislature, in which he de-
clared
Rewards for the detection of men en-.
gagged in outrSges perpetrated by what are
called ku Klux, in any county, shall, when
paid by the Executive, be made a special
tax upon that county, with the right to
change venue on the part Of the State. He
asks authority to organize and call into the
field q cavalry regiment of picked men for
operating wherever masked assassins shall
be seen, the cost Of the subsistence of said
regiment to be levied as q special tax on
those localities to which they have been
called by the appearance Of masked sssas-
sins With this power, the tax payers who
shall dare tolerate By their sympAthies the
performances OF the Ku Klux, will soon find
out such federation will have cost them heav
lily in penal taxes. While leaving nothing
undone to repress violence, Governor Al
corn adds; IL is our solemn duty to see we
leave nothing undone to remove all possible
grounds for its provooAtion."
If State authorities are not competent,
under the Constitution, to maintain the pub
lilo peace and punish offenders. we might as
well confess republican government failure
at once, be done With it, and sest some
