Many people are inclined to take a
gloomy view Of the future of Newport

Pennsylvania Railroad company IN
discriminating against Newport
News, in favor of making New
York the terminal port for all export
goods, will be the death of the Vir-
GINA town. Nature made one Of the
finest harbors in the world on the

nature and man combined can even
do in New York, and Newport News
is destined to be one of the greatest
ports on the Atlantic coast.-BriStot

The Constitutional Convention
Question.

month. a vote will be taken at all
the polling places in Virginia on the
question of calling convention tor
the purpose Of framing a new constl~
tution for the state. BY the unanl-
nous action of the democratic caucus
of the last Legislature and by the al
most unanimous action of both
branches Of the legislature in session,
il was decided that this matter should
be submitted to the voters OF this
state. and that this vote should be
taken on the fourth Thursday of this
month, the time for holding the regu-
lar annual spring elections. The
democratic state convention at its re-
cent meeting at Norfolk by practical
ly unanimous vote Endorsed this
action of the legislature, and earnest
ly urged the people of Virginia to
vote at this election for calling a Goa
stitutional convention. This action
rendered this question a party ques-
ton. and makes it the duty of all
democrats to vote and work for this
measure. The people of this state
have not for many years, in fact not
since 1869, voted on any question OF
so great importance to them. The
present constitution was framed IN
1869 largely by negroes and carpet
baggers in convention presided over
by the notorious Underwood. Under
it, the machipery for administering
the state government is needlessly
cumbersome and expensive. Reforms
should be made Which will improve
the administration of justice and OF
the states fiscal affairs and save all
nually large sums to the tax payers.
The main purpose, however, OF the
proposed convention is to change the
basis of suffrage with a view to rid
ding the state of the illiterate negro
vote. Many of the other Southern
states have adopted such measures
and they are working well in those
states. 1t is best for both parties,
for then the white men can divide up
on national issues. On this point
Ike convention at Norfolk said:
"Resolved: That it is the sense
of this convention that in framing
the new constitution no effort should
be made to dsfranchiSe any citizen
of Virginia who had right to vote
prior to 1861, nor the descendant OF
any such person, and that when such
constitution shall have been framed
it shall be submitted to vote OF the
people for ratification or rejection"
In tins the democratic party
pledges itself practically not to dis
franchise any white man, and if the
new constitution when proposed by
the convention does not suit our
people, they are to have the privilege
of voting ON its adoption or rejection,
according to the above resolution.
This question of the restriction Of
negro suffrage is the great question
of the day in Virginia, as it has been
and is throughout the South. Our
people should settle it now, and settle
it right. Delay will make matters
worse. We earnestly urge all our
reader, to go to the polls and vote
for this measure on the oath, and to
see that their neighbors do likewise.
