frage privilege which is led or
granted by one person to Bther per-
son or by one class of citizens to anoth-
er class of citizens. But the right to
vote must be and is vested somewhere
in some persons otherwise, if voting is
only a privilege the use Of suffrage
could not be extended to any one.
The right to vote is an acquired right,
which comes as sequence to citizen
ship-the citizenship being acquired by
birth or adoption into state of society
called organized government. Thus we
have in this country native born and
naturalized citizens. It was this idea
of citizenship which caused our fore
fathers to place in the Bill of Rights
the words, "that all men, having suffi-
cient evidence of permanent common
interest with, and attachment to, the
community, have The right Of suffrage"
The right to vote acquired by and
through citizenship may become vest
ed right. 1t becomes vested by its ac-
ceptance and use at the period of age
fixed by and set forth in the written
rules and laws of the state of society or
government prevailing at the time the
age limit is reached. Exercise of the
right is only contingent upon the men,
tai and moral fitness Of the citizen when
he attains the age fixed for its accept
ance and use by the written law. In
this Commonwealth those designated as
mentally unfit to exercise suffrage are
idiots and insane persons; and those
morally disqualified, persons who have
been convicted of certain crimes men
toned in the Constitution.
The late Constitutional Convention of
Virginia assumed that suffrage was
privilege, and upon that assumption so
changed the suffrage laws of the State
as to deprive more than one hundred
and fifty thousand white citizens and
one hundred thousand colored citizens
of the elective franchise. This was
done after the Convention had adopted
into the new Constitution the Bill of
Rights which declares "that all men
having sufficient evidence of permanent
common interest with, and attachment
to, the community, have the right of
suffrage"
If suffrage is no more than a privi-
lege, whence came the authority of the
members of the Convention, individual
ly and collectively, to say that only GER
tain citizens should have the right of
suffrage and that others should be de-
prived of that sacred right, which they
had acquired and had been using as
members of the same organized state
of society of which the members of the
Convention constituted part?
Suffrage attaches and belongs to citi-
zenship as matter of right; and each
and every citizen can only lose the right
by forfeiture or for such cause as is
prescribed in the organic law existing
at the time the right was acquired, ac-
cepted and used.
In Virginia a delegated convention,
with authority only to revise the con-
stitution and submit it to the people for
acceptance, usurped unusual power and
deprived a majority of the citizens of
the State of the right of suffrage. The
loss of the elective franchise means the
loss of citizenship, and that means vio-
lation Of the fundamental principles of
our republican form of government.

how keenly the men of his race feel
the effect of the Presidents action,
which has met with much criticism In
various parts Of the country.

the President desired, they would have

new YORK POLITICAL FACTOR
INCIDENT OF RoosevElT's DIS.
MissAL OF NEGRO TROOPS
FROM ANYWAYS HIS
OWN COMMITTEE

The New York Evening Telegram of
Nov. 16 gives the following account
of the passing Of resolutions criticising
Roosevelt's dismissal OF negro troops
from the Army. Gilchrist Stewart Is
the son of T. McCants Stewart:
Herbert Parsons, chairman of the
Republican County Committee. whom
President Roosevelt recently called "a
trump" was compelled to entertain
and declare passed at the monthly
meeting Of the committee last night
resolution criticising the President
and demanding that he rescind his
order dismissing dishonorably from
the Army three companies of negro
troops in the Twenty.fifth regular in.
fantry.
The resolutions were presented by
Gilcbrist Stewart. one of the local Re.
publican negro leaders. and In his
speech he roundly denounced the
President for his alleged unwarranted
action. Mr.. Parsons was plainly an.
noyed over the incident, but he was
compelled to put the motion on the
resolutions. which. after some of the
passages. rejecting on the President
had been eliminated, were adopted
with whoop. As adopted the reso.
lutions read
Whereas. There has been issued
by the War Department Of the United
States. acting upon the instructions Of
the President, as commander In chief
of the Army and Navy, an order dis.

BLAST OFF LIN TAMMANl
MURPHY LOSES PERMIT.
O'B1en Recalls Pennsylvania Termi-
nal Grant to Leader's Brother.

The political lid is off a little further in Tam
many Hall on account of the revocation Of the
blasting permit held by the New York Contract
ing and Trucking Company at the Pennsylvania
terminal site by Fire Commissioner O'Briea.
There is no good reason for assuming that
Commissioner O'Brien acted with an ulterior
motive in revoking the Murphy company's per-
nit hut Charles F. Murphy and his brother
John and ex-Alderman Gafney believe he is
putting the screws on them.
The blasting has been going on for two or
three years on the station site between Seventh
and Eighth avenues and 31st and sd streets.
The friends of Charles f. Murphy say that the
workmen are just as careful now with the
blasting as they were last year and the year be-
fore. and they are certain that Commissioner
OBren would not have interfered with them
unless he wanted 10 make an exhibition of his
control.
The company will not be permitted to go ON
blasting until IL assures the Commissioner of its
intention to safeguard its work properly. and to
prevent further accidents such as have in the
last year frequently caused loss of life and dam
age to property near the excavation.
Commissioner O'Brien informed Captain Den
mis- Ward. of the West 3Ith street station. of the
revocation of the permit. and asked him TO serve
notice on the superintendent of the blasting
gangs. Captain Ward went to the excavation
yesterday morning and ordered all blasting TO
cease. Detective John Gibbons and two uni
formed f1remen accompanied Captain Ward 10
the big hole and remained there 10 hold the shed
where the dynamite is stored and TO that
further blasting occurs until Commissioner
OBrien permits it.
The cOmpany's permits extended 10 September
- of this year. by the original grant. but the
Commissioners action invalidates them until
they assure him of a reform i'm their methods.
The reason for the action of the Commissioner
is a cumulative one 1t included the long series
Of blasting accidents, accompanied by damage

quently showered the neighbOrhood, even as far
as Broadway, with pieces of rock. The last
straw came last Thursday i'm the shape of a
shower of rocks from a poorly protected blast
flying over the houses between 31st and 30th
streets It landed in Both street. broke many
windows and slightly injured several persons
The foreman in charge of the blasting informed
his superiOrs as soon the blasting stopped
and the firm Communica ted with its counsel who
Immediately applied for another permit. II will
not be granted. Commissioner O'Brien SAYS until
the company satisfies him that il will properly
protect blasts.
The officers of the New York Contracting Com
pany are John j. Murphy, brother Of Charles F.

Frederick K. killeen, secretary, and ex-Alder-
man James F. Gafney, treasurer.
