THE VIRGINIA CONSTITUTION
Was Proclaimed by the Conven-
ton.

Baltimore Sun.
The Virginia Constitutional Convention
took the bull by the hurns and 1 ,cided to
proclaim the Constitution which it has
formulated. without submitting it to the
people. This conclusion was reached af-
ter the most careful consideration and a
series of brilliant debates. There were
three methods which were suggested
First submission to the entire electorate;
second, submission to an abridged elcc-
torate: third, adoption by the conven-
ton without submission to the people
For all these methods there were apuu-
dants prccedents. The State OF Mary
land, which has always been distin-
Puished for its conservatism. furnishes a
precedent for each one. The Constitu-
tiOn of 1I6 was proclaimed by the con-
Nention. and not submitted to the peo-
pie; the Constitution of 1864 was submit
ted to an abridged electorate. the qualih-
cation OF the voters being fixed by the
instrument submitted and which disfrau-
state: and the Constitution OF 1867 was
submitted to the full electorate. In
Virginia the Constitution of l776 was pro-
claimed, and that of 1861, the present, or
Underwood Constitution, was submitted
to an electorate which that instrument
mad enlarged. 1t gave to negroes the
right to vote. and provided that they
should vote on its submission. The pres
ent new Constitution of Delaware was
proclaimed 10y the convention which
framed it, and was never submitted to
the people.
The action Of the Virginia Convention.
therefore, cannot be considered revoiu-
tionary.

THE TIMES TALKS OUT.

The cautions and ultra-conservative
Richmond Times, one of the best and
most thoroughly reliable newspapers in
the Union, has seen its way clear to
condemn the action of Judge Campbell
of Amherst County in the contempt pro-
ceedings of which The Advertiser has had
somewhat to say. And in order to show
the precise nature of the case 1t is proper
to publish the ground of the Judges ac-
ton. 1t is found in the following publ
cation made by Rev. C. II. Crawford,
in his newspaper. The Christian Fedora
fion:
Sat Amherst recently a whiskey- selling
druggist was presented to the grand
jury. 1t was proved that he had sold
about twenty-five barrels of intoxicants
during the past year. and a number of
witnesses testified that they had bought
Ct from him, but the jury was instructed
by the judge that the druggist had a
right to sell 'medicated whiskey.' SO
they brought in a verdict no Indictment
Such rulings set people TO wondering
which has been doctored most the whis4
key or the judge"
This was harsh criticism, of course, but
nothing worse than can be found in the
newspapers all over the country 1t was
a suggestion that the Judge had been
tempered with, and that his judicial act
was the result of such tamperng, The
Judge construed 1t into contempt of court
and proceeded accordingly. The Times
discusses the matter in detail and winds
up with this language:
In the case cited from Amherst. Editor
Crawford passed very harsh and severe
criticism upon Judge Campbell and i'm
ueached his motives as just and honest
fudge. By that act Editor Crawford
rendered himself liable to be indicted and
sued for libel. But 1t cannot be said
that his criticism which did not appear
until after this case had been decided. in
any way interfered with the machinery
of the court Therefore, we cannot
agree that the editor was guilty of con-
tempt and we cannot agree that the court
has the right to yank him up and punish
him summarily without the benefit of a
Jury for his criticism.
That covers the case, we apprehend,
The Judge had his remedy before the
courts, and had no right to punish the
alleged offence in his own court.

THE COMMITTEES SHOULD ACT.

The communication OF Citizen" on this
page Of todays Advertiser goes directly
to the point as to reforming present
methods of selecting officers and delegates
in this county. That a change is abso-
lutely necessary is admitted by all who
will give the matter moments con-
sideration. In answer to our correspon-
dents query who has the authority to
inaugurate this change" we would say
that the plan in operation was established
by a county convention, and opportunity
should be given for the desired changes
to be made in the same way. The Coun-
ty Executive Committee has authority to
call county convention to consider this
and any other matters that may come
up. OF course If a general primary should
be ordered by the State Committee it
would be the duty of the County Com
mittee to act in accordance Herewith
and to arrange for a primary that would
be primary in fact and not in name
only.

DOUBLED in Three Years.

That the circulation OF The Advertiser b
steadily climbing upward is demonstrated py
the figures given in the appended statement
covering the actual daily issue for the month
of May. Just passed.
figures furnish much food for thought; For
Instance, the average daily circulation during
SUNDAYS has been l4643. The actual net
average gain OF this May over last May Is
2.oel; the Sunday average gain Is S.Soz,
equal to an increase OF about one-third IN
twelve months. -.
a comparison of this May with May 1899
only three years ago, Is simply amazing IN
that period the daily average increase mas
been 5,752: the Sunday average increase. Il,
SIS The percentages are relatively sE4s
and ioi.47. In other words. The Adveruser
daily circulation has simply doubled in the
past three years-and the end is not yet .

Editors The Advertiser:
Recent communications in your paper
relative to county conventions are time
ly and pertinent The time has come
for us to abolish our present system and
substitute therefor a rational and fair
method of electing officers. recent
county convention emphasizes the neces-
sity Of this, and warns every patriotic
citizen of the imminent dangers resulting
from the system now in vogue. Who,
may I ask, has the authority to inaugu-
rate this change? Does it rest. as some
contend. with the County Executive Com
mittee. or will Democratic mass meet
ing be necessary to determine this. A
reply to this will be of interest to

On the first blush of the Presidents
pointed reference to the lynchings will

But look out, critics. that you under

trated? The President doesn't say So
On the contrary his argument is that
you have no more right to condemn

or a whole campaign because of some
cruelties.-P Press.
For years children have been taught
to recite 1.-The Blue and the Gray" and
to give rein to the impulse of forgive

HERR KRUPP IS DEAD.
Great Gunmaker and Richest Man in
Germany Dies Suddenly OF
ApOplexy.

Berlin, Nov. 24,-Herr Krupp, the
great gunmaker and the wealthiest
man in Germany, died suddenly from
apoplexy Saturday afternoon at his
villa on the hill near Essen. Herr
Krupp had been i'll for several days,
and report of his condition was tele-
graphed daily to his wife, who had
been several months in Jena under
medical treatment. According to the
medical reports, his physicians sue
ceded in restoring Herr Krupp to con-
sciousness, but their patient soon re-
lapsed into insensibility. He died at
three o'clock. In the meantime the
directors of the Krupp works and
Herr Krupp's solicitors had been sum-
moned. They held consultation
after his death and caused a bulletin
announcing his demise to be posted
at the works at six o'clock.
Moderate estimates of the fortune
of the deceased place it at $125, 100000,
and his annual income during his re-
cent years of prosperity at $1o,ooo,-
900.
The first assumption that Herr
Krupp committed suicide is yielding
to precise and abundant testimony to
the contrary. Prof. Binswanger, q

ernment will pay the sum necessary to
return the soldiers of the revolution
to their homes. Once peace has been
declared, the Colombian congress will

anna canal and the elections, and also
