The International says: It was re- ported at Douglas that the Courtland Times, which wss established last year by Raymond and Aloysius Coll ID the new mining district, has sus. pended publication after a struggle under various homogeneous. Aloysius Coll was its fret editor, the paper be- ing printed by the Dispatch n Doug. las. Mir Coll is s versatile writer and made the p,per s credit to the new town. After the management of the Dispatch changed hands last July the new management of that paper fell b air to the Courtland Times through an arrangement with Mir Coll. Since then the editorial work on the Court land paper WAS in the hands of Miss E Harrison and later in the hands of F B Cook.
 The Times had no plant st Court. land and its suspens'on probably allowed decision that Courtlsnd was not able to support two newspapers and now the Courtlsud Ariz0nsn ba. tn, field alone. The Arizonan is c good weekly paper and deserves to succeed.

More Power to You
 General Hitchcock

THE ErITAPH Is suffused win blushes after hearing the utteraoce. oi Postmaster General H tchcock yester. day in his happy references to the ponderous power of our highly moral and family journal and its recognized influence for good in and out of de"- ocratic circles. h our modesty we rise to remark that we are amply repaid in the visit of the distin- guished cabinet off uisl to the historic and only Tombstone. General Hitch- cock found the situation just as represented and advertised by us tor lol these many years H proceeded to pay c high tribute 10 our tiren- ship winch, as was sptly termed by him, is the ;ndomitsbie, courageous and determined kind that has made possible the Winning of the West.
 General Hitchcock, by personal ob. servation, has verified the truthful ness of our oit.asserted contention for recognition and Arizons has won another powerful advocate. Although friendly before, be is nov one of 'si- zons's strongest friends and stsunch- est allies in our struggle for freedom from territorial vsssslsge. i.
 All Arizona is proud of General Hitchcock. Tombstone is especially proud of him, and THE EPITAPH's admiration goes to the extent that we heartily join in the memorable and expressive fl inelegsnt, toast of More Power to You"
