why this increase shonld be made.

SUBMISSION l did believe sub
mission the proper way to put in
effect the new organic law until
l had had nearly twelve months
experience in law-mking. | then
came to the conclusion that il
would be impossible for all of the
good people of Virginia to give
that instrument investigation suf-
hcient 10 form a correct and inn
partial decision of the matter.
And, again, | felt sure our work
would be ratified if submitted !;
therefore, it would be entailing
an unnecessary expense upon
the people.
My change of residence from
Virginia to Alabama has called
forth this letter, and, for those
who do not know my biography,
| will state that ! was born in
Loudoun county, Va, in 1862.
and moved to Orange county,
va, III 1897; was educated in
the common schools of Virginia
and in a business college of
Washington, ID. G.
In conclusion, as a member of
the Constitutional Convention of
Virginia, | felt that | owed to my
people and my State a debt Of
gratitude that | could only pay
by casting my vote to proclaim
as our organic law the work of
one OF the grandest bodies of law
makers that ever graced the his
torical capitol of glorious old
Virginia.

The Fear of Death.

1t was stated, in leading paper \
short time ago, that Andrew Carnegie
the millionaire, has great dread and
fear of death. So great is this fear
that he refuses TO speak Of the subject
or allow il TO be mentioned in his pres
ence.
If this report be true there must be
some special cause for this abnormal
condition Of a great mind. 1t is true
however, that the fear OF death is in
nate and almost universal. Who does
not dread death? The fear of death is
natural, and rightly and philosophicallv
so. The preservation of human life
depends largely upon the fear Of
death. SELF preservation is the first
law OF nature" because we fear death
Human life is insecure where this fear
Is absent fla man does not fear the
monster he will take his own life orthat
of fellowman, with less hesitation and
for trivial provocation. The fear of
death conserves the preservation and
longevity of life, and this is the philo-
sophy Of the matter There is another
fear OF death which is entirely moral
a dread of the consequences the
future. The teachings of the Bible
were not intended to obIiterate the
physical dread of death, but the
moral. Among the most highly christ
ianized nations, and the most holy and
devout among these, PHYSICAL fear is
greatest, and moral fear and dread
less. The christian religion values
more highly both-the life that now is
and that which is to come, and puts
premium upon right living as a pre-
paration for right dying To live right.
we are taught, is TO die right, when the
solemn hour comes. The greatest man
that ever lived said, he had ga desire
to depart and be with Christ. which is
far better" In this expression he
employed word meaning ''to depart"
which sailors use when they are reodv
for voyage, and weigh anchor" To
sail out upon the great sea of wider
opportunities and privileges from
rockbound harbor and stor1n-beaten
coast into an open sea of safety and
peace.
There is nothing suTer or more in
evitable than that all o. us must die
and some of us this year. The over
shadowing Importance o. b, ing ready
for the hour is our apo.ogy. il one is
