The specific charge for which
Sisk is on trial is the murder of

FRIDAY SEPTEMBER ? ,9l4
THE RESULT.

The people of Virginia have
spoken. The saloons must 60.
Five principal cities have voted for
prohibition and four against. Eigh-
ty-oae counties have voted For
Prohibition and nineteen Against.
The Dry majority in the State it is
estimated will be $4,000 or more.
1t is victory not over those who
voted against prohibition, but it is a
victory in favor of the homes, of
the young men who are just starting
or preparing to start in life, of the
little boys who have not yet been
exposed to the temptations which
entice the older ones who have left
their homes to begin life under other
circumstances, and of the wives
whose husbands have spent in the
saloons the money which should
have secured for them and their
children food and necessary cloth
ing. For all these it has been a
glorious victory.
1t has been a victory in favor of
the State viii, b by the verdict of the
people will cease to be a partner in
a business that ruins homes, wrecks
manhood, and destroys the nobler
impulses of its victims. Many moth
ers and many wives, no one can tell
how many. on Wednesday morning
poured out their souls in joyful
thanksgiving to Almighty God that
deliverance was in sight.
They told US that Prohibition
would not prohibit" and that laws
could not be enforced against the
sentiments of the people. Prohibi-
ton will prohibit in Virginia, where
we have a judiciary that will enforce
the law. What the sentiments of
the people are has been so forcibly
expressed by the votes at the recent
election that it will not be necessary
to enforce laws against popular
sentiment. Local Option has prov
ed a good thing, as all parties ad-
NIT, and prohibition is nothing more
than Local Option that embraces
all the cities and counties of the
State.
Virginia is progressive. All can
rejoice that she is making progress
against the most destructive element
in her borders, that she has placed
herself on record as the friend of
those who have been the victims of
the grasping avarice of the saloons.
The reputation which Virginia
has enjoyed on account of her will
lingness to lead in the contest for
the rights of her citizens has now
been enhanced by her determination
to extend her protecting arms over
those who have been unable to pro-
tect themselves.

London. Sept. 21.-German

their regimental bands in the
valley of death along the Aisne
by day and by night. Their
losses are colossal says an Eng
fish correspondent who sends his

Describing a counter attack
made by the Germans he says:
They came on singing with
their drums beating behind then i.
Even at night they had their
band to play them on to attack.
We met them in the holes
they had themselves dug and as
a French soldier who told the
story said: You know in a fight
like that we had them at a dis.
advantage for our bayonets are
longer than theirs only all these
straps about our chests and
shoulders get in our way and
hinder our movements. The
Germans are better off in that

Oil RANGES on Naval VesseIs.

In agreement with the navy depart.
ment policy Of using oil instead OF
coal there have been installed on the
Pennsylvania and on Battleship 80 oil
ranges for cooking purposes. In the
matter Of first cost there is a saving
by the use of oil for cooking of about
$500 for each ship and in operation
the economy is much more marked
The question Of the economy of oper
alton in the galley is quite important
Thus the batch Of bread alone baked
each day for the crew Of modern
dreadnaught calls for the use of about
six barrels Of flour. The relative costs
Of cooking by the different methods
have been found to be as follows a
day: Electric range, $3.50; coal
range. SIG; oil range, $3.50. When
In addition to the economy, the clean
illness and absence Of ashes is CON
sidered. the advantage of cooking by
Oil on ship which burns oil only in
Its main boilers is readily apparent.
