WASHINGTON, June 5.-"Offensive par
tisanship'' comes UP in a new form. Mr..
Lockw ood of Cleveland, o., has written q
letter to the secretary of the treasury asking
that the deposit of public moneys in that
city be taken away from the Mercantile
National bank and be given to some other
national banking institution. He complains
that the bank aforesaid contributed through
the vote of its officers to the Republican
campaign fund, and for such reasons it
ought to have no favors at DEM

the National Commercial bank. From

the activity of the banks, now acting as de-
positories, in Republican politics. This
goes to prove the charge repeatedly made
from Democratic sources, that the National
banks of the land have been in close alliance
with the ".rand old party
