FROM the Epitaph We learn that the bitter feeling in Tombstone against Hudson t Co. is materially changing They have also receded from the DO l. ton tue rand jury took imm-dia e y upon the suspension of the bank, declaring that the funds in the Tomb stone bank should not go towards iquidaiing the indebtedness of the bank Tn Tucson. IL is discovered that the bulk of the assets are in the parent bank and should Tombstone hold to their fiIst proposition they might get left, and now they are perfectly willing to leave the settlement of the affairs with the assignee and believe that the condition of the bank Is far better than was anticipated.
 The condition of affairs here are about the same with a constantly growing feel ing of a healthier state. There has been nothing done to embarrass the ss- signee and the good feeling existing be- tween the creditors and the assignee IS -,leasant and degree of confidence has
 spired that modifies all feelings erness heretofore expressed. The
 fear that some deep laid scheme
 been concocted by the bankers to
 depositors was so prevalent at the
 Tt. that it was hard to convince any Ie to the contrary, but as tlme passes and knowledge of the condition of the bank Is disclosed, that idea Is entirely abandoned, an it is firmly believed tha if the officers of the bank are not tied up in law the creditors will realize all the way from 90 to Ice per cent.
 A gentleman remarked to us yester- day: What is all this howl about the town being broke and having DO money, made for? There has no money left town. IL has only changed hands. The borrower has got the depositor's money. The money is all here, aud the creditors will get it all back if they will be pa- tient. I owe the bank, and when called upon will pay what l owe and the inter est thereon. Most of the securities are m the same condition, and nIne-tenths Of them will be paid when the time comes

thousand sunbeams nestle, darkly

"How do you make eyelashes longer ?"
"With the tiniest pair OF scissors l
trim the lashes very slightly, and anoint
the roots with salve made of two

Henderson and Union counties are
again throwing mud at each other.
This time it is over some local legis-
lation which was secured in the in
tercst of Henderson, at the expense
of:Union, in the late Legislature. A
Henderson paper boasts that its Rep
rcsGntatives ran over the senator
from Union rough-shod.. A Union
paper rctorts that the Henderson
Representative did it by swapping
votes and compromising the inter.

of little local praise. 1t seems i'm

THE MAN BLAINE.

The Republican voter this year
will inspect the candidate with a
coldly critical eye-not the Republi-
can voter who shouts out 'Wc want
our Jim of Maine, nor he who pants
to brand all others not of his mind,
for such never think, and have no
eyes; but the Republican voter whose
decision makes the wide difference
between majority and a minority, be
tween success and failure. These
voters, depend upon it, will not sup
port James G. Blaine. The honest
and independent newspapers, the
newspapers whose opinions are
worth heeling and are needed, will
not support him. The American
people will not support him, for
gr at majority of them believe he is
unworthy to be President of the Uni
ted States, and his own acts and
Wo.ds justify their belief. lie is a
shallow, smast American. We have
ten thousand men who would make
better, safer President than he.-
