Decision on Disfranchlsement of Ne-

 Richmond. Va, Nov: k.-Today in the United States Circuit Court, Judge Golf handed down an opinion in the case of John W. Brickhouse, negro. against C. T. Brooks. and William Jessup. election judges of Norfolk County. in which the validity of the new Virginia Constitution was attack ed on account of the failure of the members of the Constitutional Conven- tion to take an oath to uphold the Federal Constitution.
 Brickhouse contended that the old Constitution stood, and therefore he had been illegally deprived of his right to vote. The court held that Brick" houses contention was without merit and that as the new constitution had been declared valid by the Legislature and the Governor of Virginia, 1t was in fact the Constitution of Virginia
 The opinion says that whether or not the Constitution iS the Constitu- ton of the State of Virginia, it is a political question not lO be disposed of by the court but by the legislative departments of the State, These de- partments having declared if valid and in force, } 1t Is, therefore. the funda- mental law of the State and will so remain untn changed by the people of the State or oVArthrown. not by the courts. but by revolution.
