slos, to Topeka. II 10 understood that
.s.smiursnts for Kansas will principally
,,.vsl by the way o! Davenport, and In the
name Of large majority OF our fellow citi-
IAN. ws welcome them 10 free passage
through free city. Travelling BY the
n.y,ppor, and Council Bluffs route, they
iii no, only avoid contact with the Missouri
,,,suders, but also tho insulting interie'
rsncs of the City Council OF Dubuque.

We have no idea that the respectable
