LET US MOVE IT.

From the Hutchinson News.
The people of Missouri will vote
upon the proposition to change their
state capital from jefferson City to
Sedalia. One of the reasons why
mossbackism cannot be shaken by Mis-
souri, is largely due to the fact that
the state capital has been allowed TO
remain at Jefferson City-a town with
one railroad, and everything else OH
about the same One-horse scale. Kan
saS would do well to follow the course
of Missouri in this matter Sedalia
offers to furnish the state with as good
building as it now has at Jefferson
City, and half dozen towns in Cen
trail Kansas could be found to do like
wise for Kansas.
