NEARLY apititul attempt TO scare some

lar the meaning is that sweet revenge is
to be taken on pretty much everybody
Legislature, Governor, Supreme Court,
&C., who had anything to do with remov'
lug the Capital from Charleston.
Such threat is well calculated to
make the people Of the State fall in love
with Charleston as site for the Capital,
Suppose that Wheeling had carried on in
such ridiculous and rCvengeiul way
when the seat Of government was remov'
ed from here in 1870, how many friends
would she have had last winter? The
whole course Of the CharlestOnians in the
Capital matter has been against them,
1t has been such rs 10 naturally suggest
the question to the public mind
whether il is safe to locate any
State institution in q community that is
aCtuated by such avlOlcnt and revengelul
spirit, Because the Capital happened,
by one vote, to be located in Charleston
the property holders there who were bene-
iited by il seem to have come to the con.
clusiOn that they had acquired vested
title to it. So much so that they actually
set themselves up to resist the eminent
domain CT the State-sOmething that was
never before heard Of in this country,
The idea that community can acquire n
title to the Capltalship Of II State against
the State itself is novelty that would be
pntentablc II it had the slightest utility
when patented.
The whole course Of affairs at Charles.
ton from first to last has been such As to
lead the people Of the State to congratu'
late themselves on the fact that they have
actually been able at last, by aid Of the
powers Of the three depart.
ments Of the Commonwealth, to remove
the Capital to a place where the people
will submit to the laws when they are
