tai to Sedalia, are attempting to vlgy
q trick on the farmers Of Pettis
county that will certainly not be re.
ceived by them with open arms,
The acts provides that the county
of Pettis and Sedalia township in
said county may each vote an issue
of go o taxable three per cent
bonds not to exceed III amount re-
spectively for each 100000, such
bonds may be issued by u majority
vote of those voting at Il special
election" What does this mean to
the farmer of Pettis county? 1t
mean that his county will be in.
volved in an additional debt of two
millions of dollars, For what pur-
pose? To be part of the profits of
these land sharks for securing the
removal of the capital. Every dol
lar Of this 100000 will be paid in
to the pockets of the swindlers and
town lot boomers, who are engineer,
ing the capital removal scheme.
The people Of Pettis county, and
especially the farming element, arc
not interested in the town lots in
Sedalia, and they will hardly prove
such fools as to vote upon themselves
a tax Of 100000 for the benefit Of
those who have no interest whatever
in that county. The resolution is
very adroitly drawn. They are
authorized to vote this by a majority
vote. Thus Sedalia expects to out
vote the county and carry the pro
position by the town vote and with
such importation of strangers as she
can bring into her borders. Iu Or
der therefore, to save Petis county,
the farmers Of Pettis county will
have to protect themselves by voting
against the capital removal. 1t eau
never benefit them, but it can ruin
them.

Perhaps the most remarkable piece
OF legislation that has occurred in
this state in twenty-five years, took
place in the house and senate ef the
thirty.eighth general assembly on
Wednesday, the goth inst, when q
concurrent resolution was introduced
and passed providing for the removal
of the state capital from Jefferson
City to Sedalia. Up to the time when
this resolution was introduced vague
rumors were circulated that O land
syndicate composed of spectators
in Sedalia property intended to in
troduce such a resolution. That
such action was contemplated was
therefore generally known, but that
such II resolution would be intro
duced in the house at IL O'Clock in
the morning, the right of debate cut
off. and the resolution railroaded
through without discussion and i'm.
mediately taken to the senate, where
a like programme was carried out
and the same measure again rushed
through, was of course never be-
lieved possible by any man living.
For sixteen years Sedalia has been
trying to secure cheap advertising
at the expense of the state by intro
duciug capital romovat resoiuuons.
But during every session these reso.
lutions took the course Of bills and
, full time and opportunity was

The SedaHa Resolution.

The resolution that is to be SUBJ
mitted to a vote of the people for
the removal Of the state capital to
Sedalia is one of the most remarkable
documents that ever found its way
through the Missouri Legislature. 1t
provides that at the general election
to be held on Tuesday next follow.
ing the first Monday in November,
1896, an amendment to the constitu-
ton Of Missouri shall be submitted
to the qualified voters of the state.
1t provides: 1.-The seat of govern.
ment shall be removed from the City
of jefferson and located at the City
of Sedalia. Any person or persons
may grant and donate to the state
any lands, money, etc" The reader
will observe that it says they mag
grant or donate, not that they ShaA
do so. What does that mean? II
means that the first clause locating
the permanent seat of government
at Sedalia is mandatory, and the
second, which provides that any
persons may donate money or land
means nothing. If they do not pu'
up the money, what shall happen
Why the state has removed its pei
manent seat of government to Soda
liza, and as the persons have not pu
up the money to build the capito
the state must so do. The state
expected and will be called upon
foot the bills. The people who wei
instrumental in passing the resoll
ton will never give a dollar to til
state.
Next it provides, whenever
suitable capitol building, having IL
same or greater floor area rs tt
present uapho! and supreme cou'
buildings, and equal thereto in ST.
bility and architectural merit, II
gether with grounds of the same {
; greater area, and an armory buildir
likewise similar OF superior. and
governors mansion likewise simli,
or superior, shall be built, the san
shall be accepted by a commission
Now if all the state wants is a cal
tol building having "the same .do.
area and appointments as the PR

will get better property than she no
owns, what does she gain by r
o moving her state house, The croa.

that in parts of California thousands
of acres of vines are being grubbed

with no demand for it at anything

Of New York and Northern Ohio
are growing table grapes and selling

No IntimutiOn That ihe savannah
Companies May BE Disbanded.
Reports SIS to the status Of the colored
military. which have been current for sew
eraI days, have attracted considerable at
tention. The statement that all the col
ored companies of Savannah except three
would be disbanded is believed to be with
out foundation.
The facts. as CLEANED from an authorlta-
tive source, are that the Georgia yolun-
teers. colored, made an application in writ
ing and by personal request to the military
advisory board some time ago for new
arms and accoutrements furnished troops
by the government, and that they be fur
nished some assistance for maintaining
their armories.
No reply 10 their request has been re-
ceived by the commanding officers, but
an inspection of the colored troops was
ordered with view to complying with
their application, 1t is understood, and
Lieut.. Satterlee was ordered TO make the
inspection, which he did, and reported to
the governor a few days before the lat
ter's recent serious illness.
Lieut.. Satterlee's report has not been
made public, and what action the gov
ernor Will take on the report is unknown,
as he had given it no consideration what
ever prior to his illness.
The six companies of infantry may be
consolidated into four companies. or the
whole number may be retained, the matter
to be determined further on by the mill
tary authorities as soon as the governor
may be able to look into the matter.
Should it be determined to reduce the
infantry to four companies it is not GER
tain what companies win be retained in
the states service. There is no intima-
ton that the Savannah Hussars and
Georgia Artillery viii be disbanded.
There are twenty-five colored companies
in Georgia. and while it has leaked out
that Lieut.. Satterlee's report states that
they are all deficient as to certain legal
and military knowledge no disbandment
has been recommended
