OLD CAPITOL BUILDING AT ATLANTA.
City, Jefferson county, but the plan fell
through, and their money was refunded
to lot buyers. The first legislature built
a frame structure, not unlike an old
time tavern, for a statehouse, but it
soon burned down, and later sessions
were held in Zion church, the first house
of worship built in the northwest, torn
down few years ago to make room for
a theater. At Iowa City stone struc-
ture, handsome and imposing for the
times, was built, and at Des Moines
plain brick building was erected and
used from 1856 to 1884, when the pres
ent really handsome and suitable build
ing was finished at cost of So, $40, 800.
This building is said to have been erect
ed more economically, considering its
undoubted architectural dignity and
splendor, than any other governmental
structure IL America. The stone capitol
at Iowa City is now the central building
of the state university,
The contests over removals of capitals
in Dakota before it was divided, in
Montana and in California, where only
a few years ago there was a strong but
unsuccessful movement on the part of a
portion of the legislature to desert Sac
ramento, are matters of more recent his
tory. The capital of Georgia was re-
moved from Milledgeville to Atlanta in
1868 after a contest, much interrupted
by the civil war, lasting for 20 years.
When the transfer was made, the legis-
lature rented for capitol part of
building in course of erection as an
opera house. Later the entire structure
was purchased and used for the state
government until the completion of the
present capitol. The old building,
which looked very unlike a statehouse
was lately torn down.
The state capital has always been
bone of contention in New York, al
though the idea of removal from Albany
has never been seriously considered.
The extravaganza displayed on the pres
ent unfinished structure, now under way
for about 80 years, has kept things con-
stantly stirred up, however, and this
will probably continue for some years
to come. Early contests in Rhode Island
and Connecticut were solved by the es-
tablishment of two capitals in each of
these states. The capital of the United
States was first located in New York,
then Philadelphia and then Washing
ton. The oft repeated propositions to
transfer it to the west have met with
no great encouragement so far.

proceeds from the sales between 1920
and 1926 were sufficient to furnish
money for the construction of the first
statehouse at cost of $25, 900. 1t was
a rectangular brick building, very bald
and severe in style, and was burned, to-
gether with many valuable records,
state bonds, the state library, etc., in
1887. It was in that building that the
Missouri legislature for six consecutive
terms elected Thomas Fl. Benton to the
United States senate.
The present capitol was begun in
1888 and first occupied in 1S4O The
central portion only was built at that
time, the wings being added in 1887.
The total cost is stated to have been in
the neighborhood of $500, 900. The
present executive mansion was built in
1902. during the administration of the
late Governor B. Gratz Brown, its first
occupant The only other state build
ing to be affected by removal is the So
preme court house, not an expensive or
imposing structure, finished in 1881.
Though it might not be stretching the
point greatly, in case the people indorse
the legislatures action, to speak of Mis-
souri's capital as a migratory institu-
ton, still it has been stable compared
with the capitals of some of the states.
That of Kansas, for instance, has been
removed six times, the state governments
has been located in seven cities, and
nearly every one of the removals was
accompanied by bitter contest, where
as the contest over the proposed move in
Missouri is the first one of the sort re-
corded in the history of the state
The history Of the seat of government
in Iowa is a varied one. That part of
Uncle Sans farm now capitalized by
Des Moines belonged to Spain in the
earliest days Of white domination in
America, then to France, then to Indi-
ana, Michigan and Wisconsin in turn.
1t was not till 1884 that the United
States government acquired title from
the Indians to the lands of what is now
Iowa. During the years it was consider
ed part of Indiana it received scant
notice from the lawmakers, but the
Michigan territorial council organized
all the region north of Missouri and
west of the Mississippi into the county of
Des Moines and the township of Julian,
with courthouse at Dubuque. In 1886
Michigan became a state, and Iowa,
made part of the new territory of Wis
consin, was divided into two counties.
Dubuque and Des Moines. When at last
in 1888 it was admitted as territory,
the capital was located at Burlington
and remained there for two years. In
1910 a transfer was made to Iowa City,
but in 1867 the legislature named
new site near the junction of the Rae
coon and Des Moines rivers-the loca-
ton, in fact, of the present capital, Des
Moines. Ten years before that an effort
had been made to remove to Monroe

s1denoe, and it is likely that it will de-
crease still further during the coming
year. With the beginning of 1896, how
ever, there will be a revival of interest,
which will gradually increase until the
fall election, when the whole matter
will be definitely and finally settled by
the voters, who, according to the reso-
luton, are to have the last word.
It is apparent from the tone of their
printed and spoken comments that the
partisans of Jefferson City fear the
worst, but nevertheless they will make as
strong fight as they can. OF course the
introduction of this question into the
presidential campaign of next year will
add new and unwonted elements to a
political contest certain to be sufficient
~ heated and picturesque without
them, as all presidential contests are.
Some notion of the manner in which
the battle is to be waged may be gather
ed from the fact that already the friends
of Jefferson City declare the entire
movement to be in the interests of few
Sedalia men owning choice real estate,
while the friends of Sedalia proclaim
from the housetops that jeff City" is
the most forsaken town on the globe,
and that it is impossible to get good
board and lodging there at reasonable
prices Besides they call attention to
the facts that Sedalia is the converging
point of several lines Of railroad, while
Jefferson City may be reached by but
one. They say Sedalia has fine streets
and business places, while Jefferson City
is somewhat deficient in these direc-
tions, and so on.
Beyond question the Sedalia contin-
gent did remarkably clever work before
the legislature. There was no playing
upon brass bands in advance Of the at
tack upon the lawmakers, no announc-
ing in the market place that Sedalia
was about to capture the capital. ALI
the preliminary business had been
quietly done at Sedalia before the day
of the final onslaught. A company had
been formed for the purpose of buying
desirable landed property in the to be
capital and its suburbs, options on about
everything in sight there had been Sc
cured, and the desired removal resolu-
ton, which provides that the change
shall cost the state nothing either in
the way Of removal, sites for state build
ings or buildings themselves, was print
ed in sufficient quantities. No one in
Jefferson City knew anything about the
movement until it was sprung upon the
legislature, and then, so well was the
plan arranged and carried out, in the
space of a few hours both houses had
taken action and motion to reconsider
had been lost, thus shutting out all pos
sibility of future reconsideration.
If the people ratify the action of the
legislature, Sedalia will be the fourth
location Of the capital since the organi-
cation of Missouri as territory in 1919.

ignated as the meeting place of the gen.

eral assembly, and its first sessions were
held in a private house. For eight years
the general assembly met annually in
ST. Louis. but in 1920, when Missouri
was made state, it was decided to re-
move the capital to ST. Charles, where
it should remain until 1926, after
which it was to be transferred to Jeffer-
son City. The idea in locating at the
latter place was to get as near the geo.

time ago, providing for the removal of
the capital from Jefferson City to Soda

THE emigration of colored people to
Liberia has fairly begun. Two hundred
of them sailed yesterday from Savannah,

of q great demonstration and thousands
of black people were on hand to witness

that this movement may not have as i'm

and politically. Much of the recent
