TT IS A DUTY WE OWE.

1t lis q duty owed by the municipality of Rich
mond to its citizens and to the claims Of hui
mantty. that everything possible be done for the
relief Of tuberculosis patients and for the elimi-
patton Of the menace they form to the well and
whole OF the city.
Richmond has not done her full duty in this
direction. In fact. she has scarcely made pre-
lenses Of performing that duty at all.
The opportunity to make beginning pre-
sents itself tonight, when the proposal to pur-
chase the Pine Camp Sanitarium comes up before
the Finance Committee. That of Itself Is not the
sole duty Of the city Its purchase and mainte-
nance is matter OF Importance. but Richmond
must not stop there, She must purchase this
camp, provide for Its maintenance at It's present
or other location circumstances dictate. and
use 1t as foundation for q permanent policy
OF caring for oonsumptives--a policy to be de-
veoped ON broad lines through the years
But the first step must be taken first, and now
Is the time to take it. Purchase Pine Camp and
act promptly. That is the present duty Of Rich.

Where Fools Rush In.

Temper Is q privilege OF private life that In
duised by popular official, merely goes to show
mental weakness in the power to appreciate the
obligations of his trust The lurid outbursts of
such Andrew Jackson and Theodore
Roosevelt merely showed lack of self control
in characters Of undoubted strength OF will and
purpose. President Wilson remains calm even
when insuited to his face by a Boston with q

As on the occasion when certain suffragettes
attempted to turn the courtesy of audience
into an opportunity to hector" him, the Presi-
dent treated the impudence of the negro Trotter
with show OF perfectly definite but entirely
cool resentment. He terminated the interview.
and whatever opportunity the delegation had Of
inpressing lite views was terminated also Trot-
ter and his friends. who had called to protest
against the separation Of negro and white en-
ployes in certain Washington departments, de-
parted dissruntied and breathing talk of a mass
meeting at which they viii doubtless further
proceed to ventilate their folly.
So far the practice OF segregating negro
and white employees Of the government Is con-
cerned one except the confirmed negrophiie
and the politician In search of petty issue will
attempt to deny Its practical value in every way.
Washington despite the traditional tendency of
it's negro population to overassert itself Is
essentially Southern city. The close contact
forced In the departments between white and
coiored employees. both men and women. has
been a sore and irritating spot for years and the
only reason It has not been discontinued before

fredericksburg. Va, Nov. 16.--In tho
Police Court p. ID. Pitts was found
guilty OF running "a speakeasy and fined
500 and required to give $500 bond
Tor twelve months by Justice Dannehl.
1t appeared from the evidence that
Pitts was using number OF young
men as "boot1eggers'' in the business.
and when pressed one of these con-
fessed and Pitts was fined.
The place run by Pitts under the
opera house has been under surveillance
for some time and the officers have
been trying to get evidence sufficient
to convict but had been unsuccessful
until Friday. Pitts gave AS an ex-
