Il Lcavenworth has had a bank panic. Carl
Moller, Cashier of the German Savings Bank,
spent fifteen cents Of the bank funds for lager
beer. When the deficit was discovered, there
was tremendous run on the bank, and the d
rectors posted up notice that the bank would
be closed for a few days, until official action
could be taken. An assessment was made upon

would be Republican in politicsi The BLADE,
in speaking of the Republican party in Kansas,
is in the habit of styling it the "Grant party"

II Cundiff, of the St. Joseph Gazette, goes for
Wilkinson and Bittinger, of the Herald, in way

army, and fought against the Government;

then, have sold out their party every other
year, and black-mailed all the time. The open
rebel is the most honorable man of the trio.
