The Star and Citizen of Tucson are just.now engaged in bitter war of words. What the row is all about no man can tell, but it is quite as disgusting as it IS un- interesting. Subscribers do not usually pay to hear one individ- ual's opinion of another. They pay for the news of the day, and an intelligent discussion of the live issues. When newspapers can find nothing else to do but blackguard one another 1t Is g fair indication that either the paper has outlived it's usefulness, or the editor has softening of the brain:-or both.

A locator of a mining claim, In marking his claim on the ground so that its boundaries can be readily traced, is not held to ab- Solute eXactneSS in running the lines or in fixing the corner or other posts. The difference of few feet or few points between the monuments fixed by an actu- al survey for patent and those fixed at the time of location is immaterial, and does not affect the validity of the original loca- ton. The location of a vein or lode made upon the surface where the vein OF lode finds it's apex will not be defeated by the secret underground workings andl pos session by parties having no pos session of or right to the surface embracing it. The possession Of a vein recognized by the mining laws, and to which protection IS given, is possession by one who holds the surface where the vein makes it's apex. The location of mining claim Is sufficiently definite when the accessible boundaries thereof are plainly marked on the ground by stakes and natural objects, and inaccess- able boundaries described by course and distances sufficient to point out to any one honestly endeavuring to ascertain where such boundaries were. The right of the occupants of mining grounds on the public domain will be uph cid, when the appro- priation thereof has been made by means which substantially comply with the law, and which in view of the surrounding cir cumstanccs, convey notice to those who have right to know that the particular mining ground is subject to the domain and con-
 irol of private perS0ns.-EX.

A little less than three years ago the firm of Lord & Williams failed. They had been doing the banking business of Southern Arizona, and when they suspen 'ded large number of poor people lost all they had. And now sthe bank of Hudson X Go. has also failed, and the same story is being repeated. The cause of the present crash as stated by the officers of the bank, was the with drawal of large amounts from their Tombstone branch. This latter run was occasioned by the closing down of the Tombstone mines, and the consequent re- moval of great many depOsitOrs from that locality. When the suspension was first announced in Tucson strong feeling of in- dignation prevailed. There were heard many threats of violence, but in a little while d calmer mood prevailed, and the .deposi- tors resigned themselves to the inevitable. The ufflirs of the bank are now in the hands of a receiver, and it is thought the loss 10 depositors will not exceed 90 per cent.

Proposed Changes in the Land Act.
 LONDON, May 27.-Ths Hon. MT. Trevel yan, chief secretary for Ireland, has introduc- cd in the House of Commons bill to simpli- fy those provisions of the land act by which tenants are enabled to purchase their hold iugs. The interest on the loans granted by the State is reduced to 1-4 per cent. per annum to tenants paying one-q uar- ter of the purchase price down with repayments extending over pe- riod of forty years. The State will furnish the whole of the purchase money where the price is considered fair and the SC curity offered is good, repayment to be made in thirty three annual instalIments with 31 per cent. interest. The amount that may be advanced by the State in any one year is limited to $25, ,0o0. 900 and the entire sum to be devoted to this purpose must not exceed $100, 900, GOO. This is announced to be the utmost that the government will concede in this matter. The. bill was read for the first time to night, after which the House ad- journed until June 5.

 the Committee.
 WAsHNGToN, May 27.-The report of the Sherman subcommittee upon the Danville riot prepared by Senator Lspham was sub mitted to and approved by @ majority of the Senate Committee on Privileges and Elec- tions to-day, and was thsreupon laid before analysis of the testimony of nearly two hun- dred witnesses, the observations and conclusions of the committee there on being distributed throughout the document. It appears from the evidence. the report says, that during the control of the affairs of the State by the Democratic or fun der party B constitutional amendment had been adopted in 1876, imposing the payment of capitation tax of $t a prerequisite to the right to vote, and 6 law had been en- acted estsbl ishing the whipping post as punishment for minor offences, persons subject by law to such punishment for certain offences being disfranchised The Resdjuster party
  stitution, abolished the capitation tax and the whipping post, and for the first time in the history of the State since the amendment of 1876 suffrage was adopted. The election la November, 1883, was to be free from restric tion. Accordingly the Democratic party early in the canvass of last year renewed the efforts which had before been made to some extent to intensity and excite the race issue in the contest Senator Saulsbury to-day submitted to the Senate the views of the minority of the oom- mittee on Privileges and Elections respecting the alleged political disturbances in Oopiah county Mississippi, signed by Senators Sauls- bury. Jonas, Pugh and Vance. It takes the ground that the evidence does not warrant the conclusions reached by the naajority of the committee and says that there were no greater disturbances in Copiah than are likely to occur at any election where excitement prevails; that the quarrels chased as crimes by the majority were of personal or private character; that the report of the committee unjustly attempts to hold the Democratic party responsible for all crimes which have been committed in the State for years. It bases it's conclusions on the evidence of the best citizens of the county and maintains that the majority report is based upon testimony given by drunken negroes and ig- norant whites.
