Captain W, H. u.ray r.,l. Po,,,,s..

PREscorr, May 5.-l EDITOR JoUR- NAL-MINER- -I notice items in the territorial papers and have heard lawyers express their opinions about the matter that the 18th Legisla- ture passed an act aud that the gov ernor did sign it, that virtually clears thirteen murderers; men that had been indicted for murder in the first degree.
 Mobl No Arizona is charged with enough crime. It will not do to countenance mob lSw. But for one, hear 1t already hinted that in some of the counties vigilance committees are being quietly organized because the civil law IS a total failure. l, for one, hope that no vigilance com mittee or mob will be formed in the territory.
 But for one, when a legislature plays a game of this kind, what theni Hang the legislature. It is asserted that a limb of the law played sharp practice and hoodooed the legislature. We'll, we will hang him too.
 Nonsensel At this age has not lawyer the right to take retaioer and lee to clear criminals and use every means. fair or feul, to clear his clieut9
 Grover Cievelaad, it is chqrged, took $5,000,000 to persuade Catiisla to sell $65.000,0C0 of United States bond to 8 syndicate for 4 premium when they were worth l6i premium m the market, and he got away win the racket. Grover is called smart man; ae made money out of his office.
 Suppose the 18th Legislature had, as gOoD a5 they organized, held up tho treasurer aud took from the territorial treasury ail the funds and blowed them in, and passed an act Jo cover the matter up, 1t would have been just as good as 1t was fer Little Geo. Stevens to draw S7 ,000 and gamble it of. The legislature did pay the prison commissioners in this case.
 1t is possible that those murderers made up largo or small sum of money to retain these legislators.
 Again, these murdereTs may all he democrats. If 90, the party may neei them at the next election. Non scnsel Some of them criminals may be republicans.
 An article appeared in the Phenix Gazette not long since that reported Governor Frank n as saying that 1 the fool killer hSj happened around when the 18th convened, that here would not have been a 18th session. He intimates that but $2,000 of the S6,0O0 that was sent to defeat the bullion tax bill was paid out to retain members to defeat that meas ure.
 IL is quite true that tax of two per cent on gross proceeds of mines would have amounted to $l00.000. 1t is possible that this is what the governor meant. They were too cheap. They could just as we'll have made $S6,O00-a thousand each --and, by the great democratic party been called that much smarter men.
 The democrats will be just as anxious to elect these same men to the. next legislature as they were to the last. The word democracy bridges all crime.

Yesterdays special containing the railroad party made the run from Prescott to Phenix in the remark able quick running time of less than four hours Thetrain left Prescott at l:44 ?, ID. and reached Phenix at 5:52 D, nl., making two stops en route of about five minutes each. Considering that there are twenty one miles of three per cent grade between Prescott and Skull valley, and quite grade both ascending and descending. between Kirkland aud Date creek, where slow time was necessary, the run was remarkably good one. The run from Ash Fork to Prescott was made in one hour and forty minutes, including one stop, so that the running time of the entire trip of l96 miiea, was a little less than five hours and forty minutes. Train Dispatcher Storey accomplished tho feat of giving running orders without laying out either train number one or number two, arranging the meet ing and passing point of these respective traias SO that no time was lost by them, and each got through on time. The railroad party left Phenix last hlgkt on their return trip at 9.07 p. III. and arrived at Prescott at 2.57 a. m, leaving here at 3:05 a. m,, and arrived at Ash Fork at 5:30 ,. ID.
