The other was that he visited a Jail

the woman was in Jail for bigamy.

Sweeping Pro position.

There are certain classes of men.
who should be regidly excluded from
the constitutional convention If the
final results are to be ut all satisfac-
tory.
We may divide them into three
classes First, all the Office holders
whose offices mny be affec ed by the
convention; second, all politicians, "
ring men, political bosses, or others
of a purchasing or purchasable char
acter; and third, every officer of every
corporation, and every attorney for
every corporation in the State.
We know what a shout of execra-
ton will go up when these PROPOSE
tons are made, but none the less.
they should be made and should be
very rigidly adhered to.-Charlottes-
vile Progress.
If the foregoing be rigidly adhered
to, the membership of the cOnstitu-
tional convention will be restricted
to preacher, newspapermen and other
truly good members of society. The
Millennium is sometime off yet, and
we cannot afford to wait for coustitu
tiOnal reform in Virginia until that
event. 1t would not do to make
declarations of prescription, except
foi very good reasons, the validity of
which the people themselves must
ultimately determine. We think
there will be good many politicians
and probably some political bosses,
in the next Observation-Disclosures
They have way of getting there

The Sun, the greatest Republican

Issue has scathing criticism of the

dituies Of this present Congress

colossal steals known in history.

Congress has spent, or has in
prospect of spending a billion and
a half dollars. There is slight hope
in the fact that Democratic and
one or two Republican Senators
are crying out against these mOnu-
mental frauds, and are doing what
they can against reat odds to
defeat the robbers and looters of

By Winnie Reid F. ench.

Is novel the theme of which re ates
to the p esent situation of the.so-called
'aristocracy'' of old Virginia.
1t abounds in hume, is written in an
easy, flowing style, and is al oghther a
departure from the convention al South
ern story. 1t can be clearly seen that
Mrs. French, being Of Virginian ances-
try herself, irheri.s a sympathy the
broken idols and old traditions so dear
o the Southern hearts, and oftes a
smile but hides tear. The story has
for its setting an old historic mansion
of Colon ial type, and running through
the pages is an undercurrent, there is a
love-story which reaches it's climax in
the chapter. The book is unusually
ty and attractive.

Republicans Out Of II.

1t has bee give out by some of
the leading Republicans oil the cOun-
ty that the party will have nothing
TO do with the sending of "A delegate

We think this unwIse. The con-
stitution, under which all Tue people
are to live and by which they are to
be governed should be made by rep
resentation of all the people instead
of by one party. There should be
no politics in this matter. The
News has said repeatedly, and sticks
to it, that there should be no tom
foolery about this business. We can
conceive of no reason why the Re-
publicans should stand slOof without
laying themselves open TO the charge
Of partisanry.
Certainly it is if they refuse to take
any part in framing the new cOnsti-
tuition it would DO improper and
indicate, to say the least, for then
to vote on its ratification or rejection
when submitted to the people,.

among the boys that whenever or
wherever the spindles creaked or

Ninth district or "the bloody Fifth

on Echols for "oil'' is seldom dis
regarded. He may not turn the

Should be Submitted.

With the pledge made by the
convention at Norfolk before us
we don't understand how there can
be question as to submitting the
new constitution to the people. The
resolution passed on May, 22nd,
1900, calling for the convention to
frame a new constitution, says:
"Resolved. That it is the sense
Of this convention, that in framing
q new constitution, no effort should
be made to disfranchise any citizen
of Virgil ia who had right to vote
prior to 1861, nor the defendant of
any such person, and that when
such constitution shall have beea
framed, it shall be submitted to
q vote of the people for ratification
or rejection
This language is meaningless un-
less the new instrument is to be
submitted to the "peopIe for ratifi-
cation or rejection" And the peo-
pie so understood it, the papers and
speakers 80 proclaimed it during
the last campaign last fall, and
many people voted for the conven-
ton call with the same understand.
ing. This pledge to the people
cannot be ignored.
Whether the Norfolk convention
had the right to bind the constitu-
tional convention or not is question
we are not able to decide, but
certainly it did so, and we don't see
how it can be COTTON around with
out leaving the impression upon
the people generally that they
were deluded in voting for the
convention last fall. If the right
kind OF constitution is framed it
will be adopted by the people, and
if such a one as they do not want
is framed they ought to have an
opportunity to vote 1t down. In
so serious a business as making a
new constitution for great State
there sshould be absolutely fair
open and square dealing, and of
course there will be.
Since the above was put in type
the following appeared in the Rich
mond Dispatch:
"The convention never would
have been called but for the promise
made by many newspapers and
public speakers that, so far as they
could promote that object, its work
should be submitted to the people
for approval. The Dispatch was
one of those papers. And the ut
terance of the Democratic State
Convention held at Norfolk, while
by no means SO explicit and we
believe, accepted by most people as
a pledge in favor of submission.
GAS to what qualifications should
be possessed by the voters who may
be called upon to pass upon the
conventions work, we may safely
leave that to the convention. That
is q matter for discussion and de-
liberation"
LATER-The Flood Bill, provid-
ing that the new constitution shall
be submitted to the peaple for rati.
ication or rejection, passed the
Senate on Monday by vote of 10
to IL. The constitutional cOhven-
ton may ignore this bill or not, as
they choose, considering thai the
General Assembly had no right to
dictate.
