Jefferson City, no.

February 81. 1891.
Editor BASHER;-The proposed cOns,itu-
tionAl amendment, TO have 3 vote taken by
the people, 70 move the Capitol to S.dAlia,
has failed by a vote OF Gfty-two Tor IL, and
seyenty-one against it; your mSnb.r Aussin
voting for It. The wonder here ia Jefferson
City is, that Miller county, a twin sister to
Cole county, would send a member to the
Legislature TO move thu Capitol, 10 ruin the
people of this city, and injlrs the property
holders In little Cole and Miller counties.
Miller county lsuls lays on en average OF
twenty i've or thirty miles OF Joff.rson City,
the State Capitol; both counties lay on the
Usage river, both counties arc equally inter
ested 10 the State Capitol remaining here 10
Jefferson City, and every acre OF land In both
counties would be reduced 10 value by NOV
ing the Sta,a Uapito', tho prosperity Of Nil.
Ter countY is Increased by the prosperity OF
Cole county, in everything that adds to the
prosperity OF the one, adds 10 the other, their
trade and improvement Of the ossge river
are ons; they are equally interested in the
new RAilrosd from Jefferson City to the
COuLu~WbeI Mutcu fObu ~ now DbluR DNlll
and will go through q part OF Miller eoanty.
Now under all these considerations Immagine
the modification that Jefferson City people,
and Cole eounty people must feel TO know
that Miller county would send member TO
the Legislature wh) would vote TO rsmove
the Capitol OF the State, sixty miles west,
and thereby ruin the property holders Ia Jsi-
fersou City, and damage every man In Cole
and Miller counties who owned a tract Of
land, or q houas and LIT. Tae writer OF thli
article owns 4 tras. OF lsni 10 Miller county,
on tho Usage river, that would DO damaged
one fourth OF its value by moving the Sat,
Capitol away from Jefferson City to SsdAlia
and he knows It is a big recommendation /,
a tract Of land, TO say IL Is within a short die
tsnce Of lbs State Capitol; aud being interest
ed l write this sommunioasion to your paper
hoping the people Of Miller county may TAX
warning al the next election, and elect n
man Of any party, who can be pursuads
under any pretenoe g. woe directly or ind
Fectly 70 move she State Capitol.
Yours Be-,

Nepotism, though confined TO
no country, has, perhaps, been
practiced more in the United
States in later years than in any
other republican government. In
the earlier and purcr DAYS of the
Republic, II was unheard OF. But
il gradually took root with the
other evils that bcset the republi-
can system, until under Grants
administration, il defantly and
openly aourished like a green bay
tree. Nepotism, ian undue at
tachment to relatives" as Mr..
Webster defines il, has cropped
out even under the present admin
istranon. With the exception Of
Secretary Window all the heads oil
departments are guilty oft. Com
missioner Raum has twelve rela-
lives In the internal revenue SER
vice, including a son and two
brothers; Postmaster General
James has placed a number Of his
relatives in good positions, in both
New York and Washington Sec
retary Hunt has three sons in the
navy department and one in the
pension bureau ; Assistant Secre-
'ary French, OF the treasury, has
in his Office twelve relatives, be.
sides several in other branches OF
the government service Secretary
hirkwood has six nieces and neph.
e@s in the interior department,
and il is said sour Bruce is alsc
