Holmes County Republican. [volume] (Millersburg, Holmes County, Ohio) 1856-1865, 1857-04-02
The Leayenworth Times.

We have received copy of new paper
with the above heading, published at Leav-
enworth City, and edited by R Crozier, Esq
The Times advocates the Free State cause
is well printed, and apparently ably edited
and is an acquisition to the Liberty party.
Under date of March I4th, the editor
speaks of the Free State Convention, held
at Tokepa on the 10th, the proceedings Of
which we reported yesterday, as "much the
the largest Delegate Convention ever held
in the Territory" After speaking of the
stand taken by the convention, las already
known to our readers,) the Times says:
"The other party will doubtless, call this
treason, as they have convenient method
of converting everything that does not
square with their notions of government in
to that commodity. If it be treason they
may make the most of it."
We quote the following article addressed
to "Emigrants," as being of interest to
many of our readers:
"Many persons will emigrate to Kansas
the present spring who have no accurate
idea of the situation of things, and do not
know what provision to make for their
wants after they get here. Many more
will come who are not acquainted with the
best route hither, and rely upon statements
made by those no better acquainted with
thorougfferes than themselves. For the
benefit of such we publish the following as
the result of our own careful observation.
''Those coming from New York and
States east of that, will come to Cleveland.
From there they will have the choice of
two routes to st. Louis. They can 60 TO
Chicago and thence down to ST. Louis, by
the Chicago, Alton and st. Louis Railroad |;
or they can 60 TO Indianapolis, and thence
to St. Louis by the Terre Haute and Alton
Railroad.
THAT portion passing through Pittsburg
can come to St. Louis by the Ohio and
Mississippi Rivers, or by Railroad via Indi-
annapolis, &c.
s'Those from the South will take the
most direct route to 81. Louis, either by
river or railroad.
"From St Louis they can come by rail
road to Jefferson City, and from thence by
steamers; or by steamers all the way from
st. Louis.
'There need be no fears of trouble in
coming up the Missouri river. The time
has come when passengers may entertain
what opinions suit them best, and may ex-
press the same in moderate manner with
out fear of molestation. But there will al
ways be intolerant persons who cannot tol-
crate what is termed 'free discussion" with.
out demonstrations of disapprobation. To
avoid alterations and disturbances with
such, all should be on their guard as to
what they say, and the manner in which
they say it.
1.-The clothing and other articles which
can be packed up in boxes and barrels
should be bro't along. Furniture and farm
ing utensils can be bough here at a small
advance upon St. Louis prices. There are
plenty Of horses and cattle in Missouri,
which can be purchased at fair prices to
make "start" with. Every family should
bring tent in which to live until house
can be built.
''The first of April will be soon enough
to get here, as the weather will not be like
ly to be pleasant before that time, nor will
there be any grass for the cattle sooner than
that-possibly not that soon.
"Those intending to locate upon the Kaw
river, or north of it in the interior, should
debark at this place. There are always
teams to be had here to go into the coun-
try, and good hotel accommodations for
Immigrants while they stay
