The people in this section seem
well pleased with the decision of the
Convention to proclaim the Constitu-
ton.
Lexington gazette. [volume] (Lexington, Va.) 1871-1962, 1902-06-06

On the whole it seems to have
been the conclusion of the Con-
vention that the Constitution must
either be proclaimed or else defeat
ed by influences which should not
be permitted to prevail. OF course,
if this Constitution had been forced
upon the people against their will,
and it was such an instrument as
they did not desire, they have a
remedy. 1t is impossible for a
Convention, or any other body, il
these times to bind great majority
of the people and tie them hand
and foot.
The Convention met June 18th,
1901, and with the exception Of
three short recesses, has been in
continuous session. Roughly esti-
mated, the cost has been $3.50, 600.
In a few weeks it will be over, as
they are pushing their work to a
conclusion. 1t is estimated that
the cost Of the Convention will be
returned to the people in short
time by the saving in the judiciary
system alone.

extraordinary divorce petition was
heard in Judge Douglass court to-
day, involving a common law mar
riage. The principals are II. H.
Pease and wife, A. z. Pease. Twenty
twoyears ago in Kansas City they
called together their relatives and
friends and announced their inten-
ton OF living together as man and
wife. There was no other ceremony.
After happy welded life Of twenty
years, as the petitioner, Mrs. Pease,
ayerred, the husband became infatu.
ated with another woman and has
since deserted and deprived his wife
of support. There has never been a
parallel case in Rhode Island, and
Judge Douglas has taken it under
advisement.
