CHANGE THE CAPITAL.

A temporary injunction, at the in
stance of citizen of Salem, has been
issued against the location Of the
Soldiers Home at Roseburg, and the
prayer of the plaintiff is to the effect
that this Injunction be made perma-
nent against locating the institution
at any other place than at the "seat of
government" as the constitution of the
slate provides. If Salem intends to
enforce this provision in regard to all
public institutions it is time that the
balance of Oregon agitated the ques-
tion of a charge of the state capital.
1t is not the geographical center, aud
heavy expenses are incurred every
session of the legislature by reason of
the distance to this Willamette town.
The constitution was adopted when
this portion of the northwest had little
population, and since that time East
ern Oregon has developed wonderfully.
This change in the condition of the
country should emphasize the import.
ance of change in the organic law.
Portland is more accessible to all por-
tions of the state, and We have no
doubt the business men of the metrop-
oils would be willing to subscribe
literally towards the erection of suit
able buildings. The next legislature
should pass an act submitting to the
electors of this state the question of
changing the capital from its present
location, and we are satisfied that if
the law mentioned Portland or some
other convenient city for the "seat of
government" it would receive a ma
jority of the votes cast.
There are many provisions in the
state constitution that have not been |
enforced heretofore, and notably the
one In reference to Indebtedness of |
counties. This is the first time that |
any effort has been made to enforce
this practically obsolete one, and the
university at Eugene, agricultural col
lege at Corvallis, state normal schools
at Monmouth and Weston are in
stances where it has been violated with
If successful in the effort to locate
the Home in Salem, the next move
will be against the branch insane asy-
lum in Eastern Oregon, and the "seat
of government" will end the fight by
causing the removal of all public in
stitutions to its vicinity.
The capital should be removed to
more central locality, and the press of
he state, outside of Salem, should agi
tate the question, SO that it may be
submitted to vote of the people after
the next session Of the legislature.

sins was robbery and murder. The negroes

lican visitors. The Republican national COM

TOPEKA GOSSIP,

TOPEKA, Feb 23-The populist house
has passed a resolution declaring that
lawful steps should be taken as soon as
possible to remove the state capitol from
Topeka to Kanapolis. The preamble of
the resolution sets forth that the capitol
should be moved, because it is now incon-
veniently located because the city of
Topeka and the sheriff of Shawnee county
defy the authority of the governor, and be-
cause the people of kanapolis promise to
duplicate the state building now locacted in
Topeka. The sentiment in favor of the res
olution was so unanimous that it was
passed within two minutes after introduc-
ton.
j. W. Ady, declared elected United
States senator by the recent Republican
joint session of the members of the house
and senate, passed through Topeka last
night. He does not regard favorably the
decision of the Republicans to elect B. p.
Waggoner (DemocraD senator. He says
that it is not wise TO change horses in the
middle of the stream. 1t is not probable,
however, that he will offer strenuous OBJ
jections to Mr.. Waggener's election.
Governor LewellIng has appointed the
following members of state boards: On
