American Territory, there is room to
draw a line that will be understood of
all men-the old line between absolu-
tism and free government.
1t has not been drawn so clearly as 1t
may be, or as it should be. None may
more iittingly draw 1t than Virginia.
Let the Democracy of Virginia de-
clare for Expansion in the sense that
Thomas Jefferson favored expansion:
expansion that contemplated no scheme
OF distant and subject colonies; no for
chile and bloody acquisition of terri
tory;an expansion that made citizens
not subjects-of those who were
brought under the folds Of the flag; an
expansion that necessitated no foreign
alliances, nor require any. at any fu-
ture time. No standing armies. no sur
render of the Monroe doctrine and no
participation in the Acknowledgement of
other and friendly nations. Let 1t dis
tinguish this from the Imperialism Of
Mckinley that would make subjects
not citizens: that would maintain by
force u sway that rests on no principle
- 1ooe1Sc vi HuiHdHilyt ana lHdC WOulQ
thrust the United States into interna-
tional broils, from which 1t has been so
long and happily free. Let 1t point out
that the first Is progress; the last-re-
progression. There is no fear that the
distinction will not he understood or
that it will not appeal to that love of
liberty and fair play which is the
strongest force in American life, and to
which no appeal has ever been made in
vain. =

AVOID COMPLICATIONS.

That the Democratic party will be
committed to the calling of Constf-
tutional Convention may be taken as
practically assured. The number Of
delegates already instructed to so vote
In the State Convention, Which meets
here on May 3D. has already settled this
question so far as 1t can be settled in
advance. TO this extent. therefore, the
atmosphere is cleared, There remains
only the matter OF fixing the date for
holding the Constitutional Convention
and the all important question of
party pledge that it's work shall be sub
mitted to a vote of the people,.
To assure the people OF the State that
they shall be given an opportunity to
pass upon the proposed Revised Con-
stitution is so obviously the only safe,
successful and Democratic course that
we prefer to believe that the State Con-
vention will give such assurance. The
Democratic masses are overwhelmingly
in favorof an unequivocal declaration
to this effect, and SO are the party lead
ers. SO far as has appeared.
The question Of fixing a date for the
proposed Constitutional Convention is
one that has been very little discussed,
but 1t is an exceedingly important mat
ter. We are clear that the date. of
the Convention should be postponed un-
til after the Presidential election. At
torneyGeneral Montague did not put
the case too strongly when he declared,
in letter to the Virginian-P Pilot, eas
published on Tuesday:
81 arr also broadly opposed sto the
holding of any Constitutional Conven-
ton until after the Presidential elecs
ton. TO do so would put the attempt
in peril, and almost invite defeat"
The Revision of the Constitution is
purely State issue. and should not be
complicated with National questions.
Party spirit on National questions Is
likely to run high this fall, and in the
heat of the Presidential contest the
matter of Constitutional Revision
would not receive the careful attention
its Importance requires. The Presl-
DENTAL election once out of the way,
the. best minds Of the State can devote
themselves to framing of such n Con-
stitution as will command the support
of patriotic men of all parties at the
polls, and such as will conserve and
safeguard every interest Of the Com
amonwealth.
AS shown yesterday. Senator Daniel
is of the opinion that postponement.
under the circumstances. will be wise.
Having lived under the present Con-
stitution for so many years, the
urgency of Revision Is not so great as
to- warrant hasty and ill-advised ac-
tion. The need that the work shall be
we'll done outweighs altogether the
need that 1t be done at once; and we
do not apprehcnd that the Democratic
State Convention will take any differ
emit view OF It,
Virginian-pilot. (Norfolk, Va.) 1898-1911, 1900-04-28

1t Is rather surprising to find so in
telligent a newspaper as the Brooklyn
Eagle asserting that the Democratic
party "will call upon the country TO
to face about and go the other way"
that the issue will be development or
decay" The Republican party has al
ready faced about and gone the other
way-bacl1wardedbt the govern
mental ideals Of century ago. The
Democracy will stand in 1900. as 1t has
always STOOD for development. But it
will be for development along Aneri-
can lines. 1t will stand for that devel-
opment which carries the Constitution
with the flag and which permits the
flag to foat over no alien and no sub
ject peoples. Any other sort OF devel-
opment is already decay.

BEHIND THE DELEGATES.
(Roanoke Times.)

The Legislature of Virginia, at its
last session. acknowledged openly that
1t would prefer not to be asked to
amend the constitution of the State by
making provision for convention for
the purpose of making the desired
changes. The question to come before
the Norfolk body iswhether the consti-
tutfonal convention shall be made a
party issue. The reason Is this: 1t is
not incumbent upon convention to
submit its findings to. the people unless
they wish 20 do so. If the constitu-
tional delegates are bound by party
restrictions they will have no other
recourse than to submit their work for
popular ratification. Another reason is
that as there is opposition 1t is deemed
best to have all Democrats feel that
their party expects their cooperation.
Therefore to-day 1t is imperative that
delegates be chosen who are in favor.
not only of the constitution. but of the
ratification of what the convention will
do by the people of the State.

HANNA "TAKES THE TRICK

His countrymen have been doing the
Hon. Marcus Aurelius Hanna a most
grave and serious injustice. Either
through Ignorance or sheer wantonness
they have been inclined to regard him
merely as n political manager. who
has introduced the exact rules of bus
mess into politics. refining the coarse
and irregular methods of his predeces-
sors in campaign finance to the formu-
lac of an exact science. Supercilious
and carping detractors have gone so
far as TO assert that the Hon. Marcus
is not a statesman and scholar, and
the English that comes from his lips
is of something less than Addisonlan.
purity and polish.
1t is high time that this cruelty
wronged patriot be set right before his
peers. He cannot only rise to any and
all occasions, but there are very few
that he does not stand head and Shout
ders above. That this may be made
plain we take this pair or juicy excerpts
from his speech before the Republican
Club of Philadelphia:
"One chief lesson is that the greatest
power. whether in politics or in busi-'
ness. is organization. Here in Philadel-
phia you have been organized with
such strength that you have justly
earned the title of the banner city of
I,epublicanism. o
I'VE are told on all sides that the
coming campaign is going to be n hard
fought one, but let me tell you that
this campaign is to be fought OH land,
and that you have nothing TO fear in
tina. direction. With the experience
gained in past campaigns I must tell
You that IL you would be on the right
track never miss a trick"
We give the top OF the morning to the
Hon. Marcus Aurelius. 1t will assuage
full many a quaver In the public bosom
TO know that at this juncture the des-
tiny of the Republic is committed to
the keeping of n craftsmanship so COM
prehensive and allurirg. 1t is comfort
ing to know that the Republican party
is not at sea, and that the batt.L Is to
be fought in the direction OF the land.
and that there is nothing to fear. There
Is no dealing in glittering generalities
here. Hon. Marcus is essentially a
concrete statesman. "If you would be
on the right track, never miss trick. ;"
says Hon. Mark. Whac II world Of
difficulties fail before this axiom!
Fancy it's applca tion to the situation
-eG,.iba Porto Rico the PHILIPPINES
There Is no contingency of domestic or
foreign policy, but is euffused with a
plenitude of illumination. when in
doubt, take the trick" With this terse
dictum from the head of the Repubi
can party, Mr.. Mcknley's colonial APP
pointees ought to be able to admin
lister affairs with ease and profit. and
all the placemen at home should make
provision for a rainy day.
The Republican party, the Philadel-
phia Club, the whole country and the
Hon. Marcus Aurelius Hanna, are TO be
congratulated. Peace to the antiquated
views OF Washington and jefferson. of
jackson and Monroe and Lincoln.
Take the trick.

A Long Court Discussion-Stabbi

 Meriden, Aug. GA long discussion took place in the police court this morn- ing over the continued eases of Frank Bruzzese Frank Voccala, Leonardo Su- zio and Peter Suzio. Attorney Philip Pond of New Haven appeared for Bruz- zese, while Attorney Danaher was pres- ent on behalf of the Suzio brothers.
 The cases originally came before the court on July 23, but were twice con- tinued at the request of the city at torney, who desired to capture Nicola Popolo, who caused all the trouble and stabbed Bruzzese with a knife on Sun day afternoon, July 22.
 City Attorney Fay stated this morn- ing that the police had been unable to capture Popolo and requested another continuance of one month to give the police further opportunities. Counsel for tn eprisoners violently opposed this move.
 Judge Platt finally continued the case four weeks, with the understanding that the charges against the prisoners would be nolled then if Popolo was still at large.
