The fact that the franchise
article of the new Constitution,
including the understanding clause
and all, is to be applied to the
coming Congressional election in
Virginia, is attracting attention
from the Democratic leaders. 1t
was not expected that an object
lesson of the workings of the new
law would so soon be presented the
people Of this State. Indeed, not
only will the law apply to the
general election in November, but
seemingly to the primaries for
Congressman in cities and counties
where these contests are legalized.
Tina is to say. wherever a primary
is legalized the voter in such city
or county cannot vote at ihe
general election.

STATE SENATORS.

One Of the most interesting
features of the schedule for put
ting the new Constitution into
effect is that section relating to
State Senators. One half Of the
Senators will be elected in 1908
for terms of four years; one half
will be elected in 1905 for two
years, and in 1907 an entirely new
Senate will be chosen for four years.
The Senators representing odd
numbered districts at present hold
over until 1905, and they with
those to be elected in 1908, will
choose Senator Daniels successor.
The latter and the short term
Senators to be elecled in 1905 will
elect successor to Senator Martin,
so that he will have to PUT his
claims before an entirely new
Senate.
1t does not lGOk as if Senator
Daniel will have any opposition
for reelection, but Senator Martin
will not be nearly so fortunat..
The friends Of Governor Montague
will insist that he shall stlnd for
the honor, and there is every
indication that he will accede to
their wishes at the proper time.
A number Of other strong men
are also being mentioned as
Senatorial possibilities, and there
is every indication Of lively
race.
