Capital Removal Ghost Is Revived in Nebraska
Lincoln February 2. An auction sale of the state capital to the community offering the highest price is provided for in a removal bill introduced in the Nebraska house. Representative Taylor of Custer county leads the measure, backed by Rep. Stuhr of Hall and Rep. Dorsey of Franklin. The plan would keep the capital in Lincoln until 1924 while a new capitol is built elsewhere, funded by a 1 mill tax for six years yielding about 3 million dollars. Cities bidding must offer at least one square mile of land. The scheme aims to push the capital to another city within about 100 miles of the state center, with Lincoln as a target elimination.
