In a communication published on our
fourth page to-day, GIr. G.. ". S. Banks
has something to say in regard to the re
moval Of Williams from route agency, on
the Kansas Pacific road. He is in error in
conceding that Mr. Phillips was in any
wise responsible for the removal OF VIII
liams. The appointment Of route agents is
in the hands OF the Superintendent Of the
Railway mail service, and when 4 man is
found by him to be incompetent he is
removed, without regard to his political

Congressman Blackburn, of Kentucky,
assured a correspondent in the most positive
manner that the Democrats did not expect
to prove in their investigation anything
against President Hayes or TO hurt the
President in any way. Recent develop
ments would indicate that they had about
given up their expectations Of hurting any
one on the Republican side cf the house.

eg-ery citizen Of Ts, '"ai "etti.es, Who
81 my regard for the honor OF his coun-
% lill take pleasure in the fact that the
81. Dfnyestigation, set on loot for the pur-
D. Ch-exposing corruption in high places,
c,s. ready demonstrated that the
Man, Of the Treasury has been COM
Case Sxonerated from the charges made
.i-..lt him in the resolution Of the House
esing the committee. All the non-Parti-
san papers Of the country now concede this
fact. The New York Herald OF the 9th
says:
IL Mrs Agnes ID. jerks Is a credible wit
ness Mr.. Sherman is exOuerated from the
suspicious raised not 80 much by the testi-
Inony OF Anderson as 10y his hesitatiuG and
doubtful manner when he appeared before
tis Potter Committee TO Tebut that witness
a. 10 the alleged letter. II is now clear that
hs did not write the letter, If Mrs. jerks is TO
be believed. His contemptuouS treatment
of Anderson throughout the whole period
W. Ale that Iniscreant was pro Wing about
" ashington in pursuit OF an ofloe seems
g pretty conclusive proof that Mr..
: serman did not fear any document
81 his possession or any revelation
/ ,could make. This treatment of Anderson
Is weighiy circumstance in yindicition Of
M. Sherman, more valuable and convincing
because II is conceded by all the hostile wit
tesses, and is supported by facts OF general
notoriety. Mr. Sherman, Irom first TO last,
has acted towards Anderson rs no public man
would be likely TO act against a person who
could convict him Of dishOnorable conduct.
fTo.hing has been more fully brought out 10y
the concurrent testimony of all the witnesses
than Mr.. Sherman's apparent Indifference 10
everything which Anderson might say, do,
or threater.

IMPORTANT.

IMPORTANT.
II you wish To avoid trouble with the in.
ternai revenue department., observe the law
which is in substance as follows:
Retail liquor dealers cannot put anything
,ciidterer into n barrel OF UktsEg-no water,
sugar, flavoring or any other substance.
They cannot put in black berries, cherries or
any other materials without being liable Tor
the rectifiers' tax.
Wholesale liquor dealers can reduce the
proof of whisky by adding water only; but
In this case they must go To the collie ,Or'S
Office and have "A new stamp put on thD bar
rel, so that the proof in the barrel tciH dgres
with that married on the barrel and in The
stamp. They cannot use any Swtetening
flavoring fruits, or anything else but water
and only then, provided the barrel is Ecsiamp-
The privilege of sweetening, coloTing, IA
voring or changing whiskys, or compound
ing same, is by Ia~ confined TO those who
are registered in the collectors office rs recti
fiers, and have paid the license special tax
as such.
The stamps and sten ell marks on all pack.
ages containing whisky should be carefully
protected from injury until the barrel i
emptied, and they should then immediately
be all scratched of and completely destroy
ed
Tue stamp and the stencil marks, and the
figures cut into the head of the barrel, as well
aS the cuts on the bung stavc, should all DE
destroyed, 30 that nobody can read them, the
moment the barrel is empti,d.
The selling OF i've gallons ar over Of spirits
or wine constitutes a person n wholesale
liquor dealer, and a wholesale or retail dealer
carrying on the business without having
paid the special tax such fOrfeitS his whole
stock of liquors, besides The fine and iupris-
onment.
BY observing the above requirements of
the law, the severe penalties of forfeiture
fines and imprisonment imposed may be
avoided.

On the question of good order we chal-
lenge any county in the State to show a
better record The small thieying so COM
mon to thickly settled counties is scarcely
ever done here. Thefts of the different
kinds Of stock running loose in the range
miles away from their owners, are very rare
Peace officers alone are allowed to carry
weapons outside of their own premises. Diff
fiCuliies between individuals are as Hnfre-
quent here as in any State in the United
States. School-houses are to be found in
every community. To those prospecting
for homes in Kansas We extend cordial
invitation to visit Leavenworth county be-
fore locating elsewhere. With produc-
tive soil, pure water, fine pasturage and
beautiful prairies, mild climate pure at
mosphere, good society, generous and hos
pitable people, and many conveniences.
Travel over the country generally and
you will be convinced that in my descrip-
tion Of this county | am not in the least
guilty Of exaggeratlon or misrepresentation
