Manchester. y. H. wants to be a state capital
and is trying to supplant Concord as New
Hampshire's seat of government. Its plea IS
that the honor ought TO go to the chief centre OF
population. Most Of the states have, however,
disregarded that plea. Only a year ago Port
land lost the fight it had been making for the
transfer of Names capital from Augusta. The
choice of capital city depends more on accessi-
biIity than on size.
