IT is AN ISSUE.

The Democrats in this Congressional
District are denying that the Constitution
al Convention is an issue in the present
election. They are taking that position,
because they are afraid it will drive the
uneducated and poor men away solidly
from the Democratic ticket. The Rich.
mond News, in an editorial in one of its
issues last week, stated that Swanson, in
the Fifth District, Rhea, in the Ninth, and
Flood,in the Tenth, were protesting against
the discussion of the time of holding and
the character of work to be done by the
coming constitutional convention, which is
to restrict suffrage. These three candi.
dates argue that the agitation of the suf-
frage question will take votes away from
them.
The Richmond News, in the above refer
red to article, claimed that it will be COW.
ardly for the Democratic party in Virginia
to seek to avoid the convention question as
an issue. In the eastern part of the State
Che question of a new constitution is excit.
ing more interest than is the election of a
President. Recently one of the chief top
les discussed by Democratic papers has
been when the convention shall be held
most of the papers urging that an extra
session of the Legislature shall be called
early the coming Winter, to fix the time
for holding the convention and for appor-
tioning the delegates. The work of re-
forming or restricting suffrage in Virginia
seems to be with them the paramount
question. Great eagerness has been man.
ifested by the Democratic press to ascer-
tain when Governor Tyler will call the ex.
ira session of the Legislature. The infer
ence we draw from facts thatohaye been
developed, lie that the Governor will call
the legislature together in January, and
that the time for holding an election for
delegates to the constitutional convention
will be fixed for some time early next
Spring. The Governor ia strong party
man and will not disclose bis purpose.

Mr.. Bryan's ApoIouIsts.
Richmond Tins

Richmond Timls.
Well may Mr.. William ., Bryan ex'
claim 'Save me from my friends" The
New York World and the Baltimore Sun
declined in 1895 to support Mir. Bryan for
the Presidency, deelsfing that his election
would be great national dissster, as Mr..
Bryan was wild theorist and unfit to &C.
cupy that exalted position. But our e.
teemed contemporaries which are now
giving Mr.. Bryan their support are also
apologizing for him BY saying that he 10
quite different man now from what be
was four years ago. That be was as dan.
gerous as poison then, but that he has
changed and now he Is safe. They are
even trying to make 1t appear that Dir.
Bryan Is not so welded 10 free silver as he
once was, and that he has altogether diff.
ferent ideas of government from those
which he entertained when he was four
years younger.
If we know anything about Mr.. Bryan
we think that be must be resentful Of such
talk as this from his apoloRists. II cannot
be very grateful to bis own feelings to have
himself exploited by these new found
champions as a wild man who has been
tanned, as once dangerous man whose
fangs have been extracted.

THE Democratic orators In Virginia are
unwilling to have joint debates with the
Republicans. They are unwilling to be
preeent and have the corrupt election

in this State exposed 70 the people. Then

imperialism, made ridiculous in their
presence, "a 1t is punc.ured by Republican

A FEW days ago Mr.. Bryan admitted, in
q speech, that his managers made the peo'

for him to speak, put up certain amount

stipulated amount was not paid. Is this

Bryan was the most remarkable man the
