The CaliiaI Question.

tWellIburs News
Speaker Gibson, Of the House Of Dele
gates, is an excitable gentleman. In his
remarks on the Capital question, the
other day, he defed any gentleman who
opposed the bill to say whether he wanted
this question settled at all. This brought
Mr.. J. B. sommeryille, Of this county, to
his feet, who mOdestly, but firmly said
"lhat he was opposed 10 settling the
question now; that he did not believe
the State Of West Virginia was In d
condition, at this day, 10 locate per.
manently the Capital Of the State"
This, no doubt, expresses the wishes Of q
large mojority Of the people Of West
Virginia. Let the Capital remain where
il Ia for at least five years. In the mean.
time, build railroads, open up the re.
sources OF the State, and then the people
will DO enabled TO make permanent To-
cation, accessible to residents In every
part Of the State. Let the matter, there
lore, rest for the present,
