All right, again. We didn't mean TO include
poetesses in the 'kioang' process; we have,
moreover, remarked the Democrats contributor,

A RUN ON THE BANK,
THE BOGUS COUNTY BANK PANIC.

THE BOGUS COUNTY BANK PANIC.
A Western village is not pleasant
thing to contemplate. The dirty, I'M
paved streets, the white or red houses
drying in the sun, suggesting heavy
bread, sour milk, and warm water
The square, vulgar looking tavern, which
speaks of poisonous drinks, feather beds
and vermin, the noise of the tin shop
or smithy, all combine to make a Wes-
tern village most abominable to eve and
ear. A very little labor and no addition
al expense would change it all. a few
forest trees, beautiful, graceful 1t abun-
dant as they are, planted along the side
walks, would change the dismal streets
into cool, refreshing avenues. But q
| Western man, proper, hates tree. His
Iprogenitor, the pioneer, found the for
| est his greatest enemy, next to the In
dian, and the child received the preiu-
dice constitutionally at his birth, as the
French child takes revolutionary in
stinct at his mothers breast. A Wes-
tern man has no content or comfort, and
from about his dwelling he has cleared
away every vestige of green, budding
mature.
West Independence forms no excep-
ton to this general rule. Approaching
1.-THE town from the north, one finds the
Iroad crowded in by huge, white, star
ling mandatory on one side, and long

we follow the narrow street, which ter
minating in a road, leads TO wooded
eminence, on which reposes beautiful
residence. In and about this mansion

refined taste. The untrimmedf oresttrees
