Talk among the delegates Of the constitu-
tienai convention indicates that Sioux Falls
will be selected as the temporary seat of gov
ernment of the coming state of Dakota. The
convention should not lose sight of the fact
that it Possesses the power to rebuke the ini-
qnitous capital commission by restoring
things to their normal condition Ydnktoh
Preys.
We have always understood that
Yankton did not care again to have the
seat of government. But aside from
this the convention promises to deal as
sensibly with this matter as with all the
other questions which concern its delib-
erations. 1t is not likely that any town
will be designated even as temporary
seat of government.-Sionr Fails Pres.
Your understanding is correct. But
Yankton does care to witness a rebuke
of the capital commission and the in
iquity which created it, and for that rea.
SOD it believes that Yankton ls the prop
er place to start from when the capital
is legally and honestly moved to its
proper location.
