In the memorandum which Governor Flower filed
with the bill which he approved, appropriating
100000 TO continue the work the Capitol
he expresses the opinion that an additional APP
propriatiOn next year of $4,000 win complete
the building. The Governor is a shrewd business
man, and is in a position to know what he is
talking about. But we are inclined 10 think that
the majority Of the people of this State will read
what he has TO say with dubious shake of the
head. For they long ago came to believe that
work upon the Capitol, like Iennyson's brook,
vas destined TO go on for ever"

that this ring muster votes enough to pass any
