some Fairfax representative. the dinai-

nature has crowned with auburn locks.
Inquiry would disclose the fact that he
was the ticrcest. the bravest and the
Samest fighter for his inches in ten
States. If the stranger remained long,
and some matter should take q turn
which Senator Glass heartily disap-
proved, he would witness a personal
demonstration of the Lyncnburg mem
bers manner of lighting, and would
leave the hall impressed with his innate:
t1avery. and honesty of purpose. Gov
ernor Montague calls Mr.. Glass "a breath
CT fresh air in Virginia politics." The,
name is considered highly appropriate, but
lie is also a thorn III the side of his
opponents in debate. Although not train

Around in front of the President the

faces One Of them would be that Of
Attorney General Ayers, of Wise. who
is still one OF the favcrites Of the great

the younger Hunton, who is UNFOLDING

The Virginia Constitutional Convention
Of 1902 is now about to complete its
labors, and its sessions will in u little
while become part of the history Of the
old state.
Naturally the personnel of its member
ship Will be closely interviewer With the
story, and Will ever remain one of its
most interesting and entertaining feat
urcs. Impartial history Will say that
the body contained some Of the most
brainy and broad-mnded statesmen of
their day and generation, and it will tell
those who follow after them that they
lahored earnestly for the upbuldinG OF
their STATE and for the greatest good to
the greatest number of their felloW-men.
Whatever may be the fate of the new
instrument whether it shall be proclaimed
and its aims and objects subsequently
distorted by hostile legislatures, or
whether it shall be submitted and re-
jected by the people. the Unbiased
writer, who records the story Of its
framing, will say its trainers did their
duty as they saw it, in the love and fear
OF Coo, bcckoned onward by the white
hand of progress, and in the interest of
what they deemed to be higher and bet
ter civilization for their Icoplc. What
ever may be the feeling Of the public on
the subject at present, it is believed that
in the end they will approve the actions
Of the body.
The incessant toll incident to the
framing of Nrsnia's ncw organic law
has developed many strong leaders,
whose names will shine on the pages OF
history, and whose examples will be fol-
lowed long after their bodies have return
ca to dust
