CIVIL GOVERNMENT OF VIRGINIA
A TEXT-BOOK FOR SCHOOLS BASED UPON THE CONSTITUTION OF 1902 AND
CONFORMING TO THE LAWS ENACTED IN ACCORDANCE THEREWITH
BY WM. F. FOX
SUPT. OF SCHOOLS, RICHMOND, VA.


NOTE.-Important changes in every part of the fundamental law of
the State were made by the Constitutional Convention of 1901-2.
A great many of these changes did not go into full effect until as
late as Feb. 1, 1904; and some are yet to be made effective by the
operation of laws already passed or to be enacted hereafter. Under
the circumstances the author trusts he may be pardoned if some
errors or omissions are found in this work, but it is believed
that in all essential points it is in harmony with the provisions
of the Constitution and the laws of the State as they stand at the
present time.
