Mitchell was in the temporary fight
for capital honors in 1890, and from
voluntary subscriptions by patriotic
citizens, expended about twelve
thousand dollars in advertising her
claims. She is in the fight now, and
on exactly the same lines. Not a
dollar will be raised by the city on
bonds or warrants. Not a vote will
be bought, win or lose; but when
the contest is ended, her skirts will
be clean, and if she can win on such
lines, her people will rejoice, while
defeat will not leave a sting, or an
unpaid obligation.
That her constantly growing i'm

blessed with good railroad facilities,
seated in the midst of population,
easy of access, and with every ad-
vantage for the permanent abiding
place of the capital of this proud

every hand, and we have confidence
that the intelligent voters of the
state are now ready for final de-
termination of the question, and
with them we leave our case, hopeful
