It behooves our Legislators to be on their
guard or some Of those willy little snakes 'swo
read Of, will creep into the Bills now before
the Legislature, and do much injury. The other
day bill came before the Council for consider
alton, bearing upon its face the appearance of call
right," when just as a little reptile waspreeping
into the tall grass, Hon. w. W. Wales put his foot
upon it and the little fellow was killed, 1t was
no more nor less than the removal of the County
seat Of Mcleod county, now located at Glencoe,
to new town recently sprung into existence.
We hear of Bills to incorporate Insurance
Companies. Look out for the serpents that lie
coiled therein. They are of the same color as
the grass, and unless particularly scratin ICED will
escape observation. They are very quiet until
trod upon, when the nature of the an imal be-
comes apparent from its hiss. Look out for the
snakes. a m

moyal of the Capite

The principal topic of local interest and ex-
citement Just low, is the removal of the Capitol
from st. Paul to St. Peter. The excitement has
reached that degree of fever heat that some Of
the members can scarcely allude to the matter
without flying into apassion, so determined are
they to carry out their local interests and local
preudces. We of st. Paul expect the Capitol
will be removed some day, but We deprecate this
movement as not only antagonistic to the Organ.
ic Act, but presenting specimen of child's play
of the most trivial character. tbs well known
that this question of removing the Capitol did
not enter the canvass, but that it has been
sprung upon the Legislature by Governor German
and his friends, who, taking advantage OF the
peccadilloes of members outside of St. Paul,
seeks to inveigle them into committal on the
very doctrine they allege is not compatible with
their ideas of right and justice. The plan is a
deep-laid scheme on the part of his Excellency
to build up 'popular sovereignty party, so
that on the incoming of Minnesota into the Union,
he can head that party and ride into Senatorial
dignity! We have given our views of this mat
ter in previous issue, and on reflection find no
reasons for changing them.
The removal of the Capitol is a question OF
paramount Importance, as it involves the doctrine
SO earnestly commended for by those who deny
that Congress has right to form the boundaries
of the new States, without first consulting the
wishes of the people. They are quite willing to
leave the settlement of the boundaries to the peo
pie, but when the removal of the Capitol is moo
ted, this act must be performed by the Legisla-
ture, and the voice of the people must be gagged.
The 18th section of the Organic Act reads as
follows -
''That the Legislative Assembly of the Terri.
tory of Minnesota, shall hold its first session at
St. Paul, and at said first session, the Governor
aud Legislative Assembly shall locate and estab-
lish temporary seat of Government for said ter
ritory, at such place as they may deem eligible;
and shall at such time as they shall see proper,
prescribe by law the manner of locating the per-
manent seat of government of said Territory by
rote Of the people,"
1t would be quite proper for the Governor and
the Legislature to designate how the seat Of Co.
vernment should be located, but the idea that it
can be done without the ''vOte of the people," is
simply ridiculous. Let the Bill pass. Let mem.
bers commit themselves, and when fully s'on the
other side of Jordon," the Congress of the Uni
ted States will take them by the coat collar and
throw them back again, no doubt much to their
modification. But says an advocate of the meas
ure, " Four Commissioners were chosen by the
people, and they located the Capitol.' Then let
us ask if it is not proper to let the Capitol re-
main where it is until we become State, when
the people will be called upon to act on perma-
nent location? 'Pitch in,' gentlemen !-''pitch
in, but be careful that you are not pitched out!
