80 far the subject Of removing the capital from
Augusta to Portland has been discussed by the PEG
pie Of this town. it's the general opinion that there
l. no call for The expense and no reason on earth
why II II necessary to move the capital, 1t
should go to Portland. Re fast Bangor would
certainly be more central, and either place could
offer good situations for the state House grounds.
sometime in the dim future it may become
sary TO erect state buildings, then no donb',
Arroostook county will claim the honor OF having
them within her limits.
