The I.ocntIon OF tIle CnpitaI.

The BrNxton County Mouatainer wants
show for the central part Of the State
for the location ofthe Capital, and calls
upon the representatives from the coun-
ties composing the central region to give
Braxton n show. II contends that II
Braxton was only made accessible by
rail, az ii surely will be in these days Of
narrow'gunges, saying nothing Of the
Washington and Ohio road through the
center Of the State, il could secure the
location on the first ballot, as II Is the
geographical center of West Virginia.
The Mouatdineer is correct in surprising
that time will make big difference in
the chances Of that region for the loca.
ton Of the Capital. II either Upshur or
Braxton county had a railroad connec.
ton with the Baltimore 4 Ohio road
there is hardly n doubt but one or the
other Of them would be chosen for tue
location OF the Capital. II, however, u
vote is had this fall, before they have any
such railroad connections, neither oil
them will stand any chance whatever.
Az the AiOunlaineer we'll says, that re-
gion can afford to wait for several years
before deciding where the Capital shall
be finally located. The interests Of thu
State are well provided for at present
and at very small expense to the ta'
payers Of the commonwealth, and ther,
is no need to press the question Of per
maneht location.
