A Washington special of last
week says that there is another
hitch in the appointment of Col.
Samuel Lowenstein of st. Paul as
disbursing agent of the Modawakan-
ton Sioux of Minnesota, Represent
alive McCleary having called at the
Indian Office and had the appoint
ment held up until he could confer
with Senator Nelson and represent
atives who recommended Col Lowen-
stein. The later was appointed
after Agent Evans, who resides in
Mr.. McCleary's district, had
advised the Indian commissioner
that he would not accept the place
again at the compensation paid by
the Office last year. Col. LOwen-
stein was then decided upon for
appointment, but before his com
mission was made out Mr.. Evans
informed the Indian commissioner
that he would accept the place.

THE friends of Constitution reyis-
ion should consider well the sugges-
tons of Gov. Tyler before they pledge
themselves to calling a Constitutional
convention. 1t is plain enough that
the people Of the State favor some
changes in the Constitution, which,
il made, would be benefit and a
blessing, but what is needed, posi-
bly,, could be reached by the method
suggested by the Governor at very
little expense, compared with that OF
a constitutional convention. By this
method the changes that are neces-
sary would be made, and that would
be the end of changing whereas, If d
convention is called there is no telling
where the end Of revising and chang
ing would stop.
In summing up the many changes
that are desired by those who favor a
convention, the Richmond Dispatch
gives five
|. To restrict Negro suffrage.
,. To reform the county judiciary
3. To require the school fund to be
apportioned between the races in pro-
portion to the amount of taxes paid
by each.
4. To require criminal expenses TO
be paid by the counties.
5. To relieve the Legislature of the
work of enscting so much local legis
lation.
These are all the reasons that have
been given for calling constitutional
convention that are worthy of eonsid-
GRAFTON, and while some of them will
doubtless be approved by majority
Of the people, others of them will
very likely be disspproved. But be
that as it may, it is more than likely
that ell that is necessary to be done
can be reached by the less expensive
method suggested by Governor Tyler,
and it ought to be carefully consid-
cred.

DR.. BENNETT PURYEAR, at one time
professor in Richmond College, writes
letter to the Richmond Dispatch of
Sunday in favor of a Constitutional
convention, which is written with
"the pen of gall dipped in vitcol. "
So Incorporate is his language that
it will doubtless injure his cause.
Speaking of the personnel of the con
vention that framed the present Con-
stitution, excepting few true Viz
ginisns, who were powerless, being a
small minority, the Doctor says 1t
was a "hideous crew of Negroes and
Ysnkees, aliens and enemies, fanatics
and FOOLS" and that the office-holder
who opposes the undoing OF the
work of such a crew must be socially
and politically ostracised. In other
words, if Doctor Puryear's peers
shall, in the exercise Of their own
opinions, oppose the calling OF con-
vention, they must be driven from
what they think best for the State by
threats Of ostracism, and forced
against their own judgment to favor
a convention. This plan cannot now
be made available. This scare-crow
has ceased to brighten, and those who
would attempt, in this day, to carry
elections in Virginia by ostracism
NAV themselves be ostrscized.

RATHER q novel suit has recently
been decided in the Common Pleas
Court of Pittsburg, which attracted
considerable attention. 1t seems
that about five years ago Methodist
minister, Rev. J. J. McIlyar, was sick,
and for some time Rev. George l..
Lee, a Presbyterian missionary. filed
his pulpit at the Sunday services.
Mr.. Lee claimed that he was to receive
twelve dollars a week for his services,
but the defendant pleaded that there
was no such understanding, and that
he was of the impression that the
services were to be rendered without
charge. The suit was for one hun.
dred and ninety'two dollars. The
Judge informed the jury that in the
case of the hiring of a farmer or la
borer the mere hiring is in itself the
promise to pay, but with ministers it
ia otherwise. Very often they ask
one another, as q matter Of courtesy,
to I'll each others pulpit without the
least intention on either side of giving
or receiving pay. And he further
thought that, as Mr.. Lee had no regu-
lar church, he was willing to preach
just to keep his hand in, " and the
fact he did preach did not imply q
promise to pay, The jury promptly
returned a verdict in favor of the de-
PENDANT. 1t might be we'll hereafter
even for ministers to understand each
other in matters of service before It
is rendered.
