present time over strong competition.
When the recent Constitutional Con-
ventiOn WAS decided upon, Mr. Gordon
was one Of those who felt that it WAS oi
transcendent Importance To the State OF
Virginia that its suffrage should be
purged Of the corrupt and corrupting
influence Of the purchasable negro vote.
In announcing himself as candidate for
membership in the convention he made
this the chief plank in his platform-the
Others being strict economy in the ad.
mnistration OF the affairs Of the State
and the making Of all the interests 10
State. corporate and private. bear their
Just. and only their just. proportion OF
the public burdens. He made it plain
that he was in favor OF submitting the
new constitution when framed to the
vote oi the electorate which should be-
prescribed by il, for adoption or re-
iaction, but that he was unalterably
opposed To submitting tOit an electorate
which should include those disfranchised
10y the instrument Itself
Upon this platform Mr.. Gordon was
elected To the Constitutional Convention
and there consistently and ably advo
Gated the positions upon which he was
elec ed thereto. He took an especially
active part upon the suffrage question
! in that body, both in committee and
upon the floor.
When the new constitution was framed
(the composite result necessarily of op-
posing ideas, not in all things meeting
Mr GOrdons wishes), he advocated its
submission to the vote OF the electorate
prescribed thereby. When this was seen
4 to be- una tainable he consulted his con
stituency anew upon this question, and
regularly called and numerously at
tended aud representative convention oi
the Democrats OF Louisa county, by
unanimous vote, instructed him to vote
for the proclamation of the new eOnstitu-
ton, aud hence be- so cast bis vote.
Such. in outline, is the life of the sub
ject of this sketch, and upon it his friends
confidently submit his candidacy for the
Democratic nomination for Congress TO
the Democrats Of the Eighth district.
As will be seen from the above, Mr..
Gordon has won his success in life in
actual contact with many difficulties and
in varied avocations which have kept
him at all times in close contact with the
body of the people as a whole, rather
than with any particular interests.
Therefore, II elected a representative in
Congress. he can be safely depended upon
to fearlessly and fairly represent all the
interests OF all Of his constituents.
