The direction of the removal of the capi-
itsl is still an unsettled question. 1t now
seems to lie between Portland Bangor and
Sabatis. The Portland Board of Trade has
appointed a committee to go and get it; but
the claim of Sabatis as more suita-
BILE location on account of its greater prox-
unity to the natural hub of the State and the
Maine State Fair grounds, will have its in
huence on the legislature. We trust that
Senator Sleeper will see that this claim is
properly presented. 1t may also be urged
that with good stout string of oxen on the
chain the State House could be hauled to
Sabatis on rollers much more cheaply than
1t could be moved to Portland. The trund-
ling process might upset some of the
interesting jaek-knifery, sharks teeth and
tape worms in the museum, but would not
disturb the magnificent and valuable collec-
ton of autographs on the the dome.
