THE NEXT DELEGATE.

We have no doubt that Hon. R. c.
 Mccormick is the choice of majority
 of the voters of Arizonasfor the next
 Delegate, and also have none that he
 can serve the Territory to better ad-
 vantage in Washington than any man
 this people can send there. On this
 latter point the evidence Is daily ac-
 cunulating. His experience and &C.,
 quaintance at Washington are very
 great, extending over many years of
 activity and gradually increasing suc- cess. He has an acquaintance with and the confidence of all the heads of Departments from the President down. He is on similar terms with very many leading Senators and Represen- tatives. His uprightness and earnest ness secure for him attentive hearings with all classes of officials. His practical newspaper experience puts him in close and sympathetic relation ship with the leading journals which make and break measures for both east and west. His energy is remark able but always so tempered as to be attractive.
 
 We are inclined to the opinion that he will be candidate for reelection, but not certain. If he should be, we shall give him our accustomed hearty support. Being zealcus friend of the gentleman, we are specially chary about advising him in @ matter of such importance to himself. If we had only selfish interests to promote, we should urge him for reelection. All our readers know about the serious loss of his eye, and consequent pros tration of his whole system. Late advices tell of his almost entire re- covery. Of this he knows best, and best of all does he know whether he can safely endure the fatigue and ex- citement of another canvass. Should he decide this question in the. adirma- tive, our voice will be for his bacom- ing candidate for reelection.

THERE Is 6 paper at Ures, Sonora, which has lashed itself into furious fit over the killings on the Gila one month ago. It seems to be spurred on little by men who prefer to live and do business under the Stars and Stripes in Arizona. Being reared among a people who have no regard for their own Government; who have but little care for the personal rights of their own countrymen IL their own revolutionary country; who are in- capable of maintaining a stable gov eminent or their country itself in tact; who do not construct tele- graphs, lines of steamers, and rail ways; who have little regard for na- tional obligations and less for interna- tional ones; who have no free schools, and lack other marks of progress and culture, we can afford to smile at their rawlings, and charitably credit their self destructive conduct to their educa- tion-or rather the want of 1t.
 h the kindest tone,- we may re- mind all concerned, that the Amer jeans don't scare worth a cent, and that they are in the habit of winning all fights they undertake. In proof of which, we would refer to the English and Mexican nations. Possibly our Sonora neighbors may mediate on these facts with profit, but they hardly will.

Schools ill LGaricopa County.

We are permitted to glean some in teresting facts on the progress of schools in Maricopa, from @ recent report of Judge J. T. Alsop, county Superintendent, to the Territorial Superintendent of public schools,
 January l, school was opened and the first term of throe months closed on March 22--J. R. Darroche, teacher. The average attendance for the quarter was twenty-five. The Superinten- dent very properly visited the school several times during the term and on the day 1t closed, and was much pleased at the evident "improvement of the scholars"
 The public money was exhausted on the one term, but @ subscription was started and funds for another quarter promptly raised, and would be con- menced on April 1. So far the school has been III District No l, at Phenix.
 A petition of citizens living too far below Phenix to share in the benefits of school there, was presented to the Superintendent, who endorsed and presented 1t the Board of Supervisors. It asks for another district, and on the 11th, the Board created it as requested. The petitioners had previously erected a suitable school building, and Super intendent Alsop presumed school would open in the new district by April l. In closing his report, the Superintendent says that "the people generally seem to be interested in keeping the schools up and that the probabilities are that Q school will "be kept at Phenix for nine months "at least, of the year 1872"
 Such facts are cheerful. They will invite settlers with families. The liberaGty shown in maintaining free schoolsin Salt River Valley, Is in the highest degree worthy of imitation all over the Territory, and we believe will prevail. We freely accord much credit to Judge Alsop for the splendid progress of the free school system at Phenix, but by his own report he shows how well the citizens there second all his efforts. He makes Q good showing for the border states men" of Maricopa county.

WE are informed that DeForest Porter, the new Associate Justice for this Territory, Is from Brownsville, Nebrasla. He went to that State from New York many years since and was for time the law partner of Judge Gaylord Clarke, who was killed ill Fl Paso, Texas, in December, 1870. MT. Porter IS about 35 years of age and has for several years been prom inent member of the Nebraska Legis- lature. As @ lawyer, politicial and public speaker, he has good reputa- tion, and his friends are confident he will make an excellent Judge. His wife is said to be lady of fine ability and of unusual conversational powers. MT. Porter was urged for appointment by Senators Tipton and Hitchcock of Nebraska, and was promptly con- frmed by the Senate.

THE APACHE BUSINESS.

The following is a special to The New York Tribune:
 WASHINGTON, March 10, lS72.- The conduct of the Apaches of Ari- zona is giving the Administration con- sidera ble trouble, since the Indians refused to go on the reservations on Feb. 15, and the reports of the late murders have been received. The Cabinet has been convinced that the only way out of the Indian difficulties Is by a vigorous campaign against them by General Crook. Any delay, it is said, will convince the Indians that the United States does not mean to do anything, and encourage them to continue their depredations. But though the will of the War Depart ment IS good, it is now entirely power less, since 1t has no money to use for such purpose at its disposal until after the first of July next. This ex- plains the sending out of General Howard.
 The Alta California of March 22, commenting upon the Encouragement consequent upon the instructions to prevent hostilities between the troops and Indians, has this to say:
 Their Encouragement will, however, not last long, for later despatches from Washington have been sent on giving General Crook full authority to do his best to protect citizens and to punish all outrages by the savages. If Crook has fail chance he will out the Apaches.

NEWS of @ terrific and destructive earthquake occurring in Lone Pine mining district on the 26th March, is received this morning. The town of Lone Pine is wholly destroyed and twenty-one persons killed and some wounded. Smelling works are dos- troyed. The earth opened for miles. Details received at Genoa, Nevada, And San Diego, California, show 8 sad wreck of life and property. Los Angeles Is specially interested in the damaged section, and Is much excited, and @ meeting has been held to raise and send aid to the sufferers, and @ messenger for further help went to San Francisco. We have private and reliable note, dated San Diego, March 31, which says:
 You will see by this mornings pa pers that we have been having a big earthquake. I have some later ad- vices, dated Visalia 90, midnight, saying that the reports are very much exaggerated. No volcanic action whatever, and the reports of the chasm 200 feet wide has dwinal6d down to 20 feet. Only Lone Pine suffered to any extent. God knows that was bad enough, but still the whole affair, summed up and sifted down by later advices, Is not half as bad as at first reported.
 P. R. BRADY, EsQ., Is preparing to erect @ Touring mill at Florence He expects the machinery from San Francisco ere long, and intends to have the mill in operation in season fer the coming wheat crop. While here lately, he procured some materi- als, and work done, with view to be ready 10 at once set up the machinery on its arrival.
 With all its drawbacks, Arizona is gradually improving Ill many respects, and only making 10 headway towards security of life and property from theft by the Apache. The practical :iddance of Whitman is encouraging to all honest and peaceable men.
