PINE CAMP PATIENTS
FEWER; COST TOO HEAVY

DR.. II. c. Levy. chief health Of
ficer of Richmond. and c. Cotesworth
pinckney have been appointed COM
mittee to prepare for publication the
annual report of the Pine Camp tu-
berculosis colony, recently made to
the society by Miss McKenna, super
intendent OF Pine Camp.
The report of Miss McKenna shows
that the average number of patients
during the year 1914 was 33 per
month and that the per capita, daily
Is now $l.15, considerably higher
than a year ago, because Of the In
creased cos. Of foodstuffs and other
necessities. Because of the higher
cost and the diminishing of the. con-
tributions the number OF patients
during the last three months OF the
year was reduced to twenty-five. Dur
ing THE first nine months the camp
was flled to It's capacity.

The TjmeS-DispqtcA Thursday morning pub

hibition law Is. in our judgment uncalled for
its further intimation Of doubt as to whether
the leaders Of the temperance cause in Virginia
are as DESTROYS OF making the laws Of Virginia
effective as were the temperance leaders of North
Carolina. As the Press had not reached US at
tie time OF our editorial Of yesterday we did not
shape our statement in that issue to meet It's
comments, but We think a reading OF our edito-
rails for the past two days should satisfy the
Press and any others of reasonable feeling as to
our position.
But cannot resist smile Of amusement at
the eagcrness of these many and ardent anti
prohibition journals to climb on the band wagon.
swipe the instruments, and start up the music.
For our part, we believe the people OF Virginia
know position, and their endorsement of IL
in the past and their reputation of these
rious and sundry new'y.weds give us confidence
in serving notice that whoever wants to can
climb and make the fuss in the newspaper
wagon, but propose 10 sit on the drivers scat

GENERAL DISSATISFACTION
 WITH PRESENT CONDITIONS

The idea prevails in political circles that MT. Barber in justice must attribute his larfdslide victory to general dissatisfac- tion, which is said to prevail against tha method and manner employed by the com mission in conducting the affairs of Bir- mingham.
 In the beginning. the advocates of com-
 mission form of government promised th.. people what was tantamount to a mil'en ium As matter of fact, on account of
 the assumption of new and large terri tory and the possession of a depicted treasury. the commission was 'unable to serve the people as generously as they had been served by the preceding may ors and boards of aldermen. During the issues have been requested. and the city, reduced its police department in number and withdrawn many of the conveniences and necessities which were formerly af- forded. As a result. there prevails. ac- cording to political seers. a. spirit of dis satisfaction which pervades the entire city.
 There seems to be no question bat that this state of affairs contributed to the victory of Mir. Barber. It is said gener- ally that his vote was an anti-administra- ton vote, however just or unjust the pre- vailng dissatisfaction may be. The count of the vote was competed by Is o'clock. and immediately thereafter a light shower out of q clear sky de- scended As to whether or not this phe- nonenon was significant of anything was
 considered pfoblematical. es

GASOLINE SCHOONER WRECKED IN PACIFIC
Eight Lose Lives When Boat Wrecks Near
 Coast

Point Arena, Cal, October 18.-One en, who had fought their way on Nal Pass rocks after escaping today from the wrecked gasoline schooner All liance No. ?, were dragged back into the sea by pursuing combers. Eight were swept to death. Rafael Mediner was flung ashore alive. H. R. Jones of Vancouver the mate. was the only other member of the ships company of 10 that was saved.
 When the schooner, which sailed from Vancouver. B. C., October 9, for Mazatlan. Sinaloa. piled up on Nal Pass rocks, 12 miles north of here, early today she had on board Captain Delouchrey. F. E. Harrington. chief en- gineer; J. s. Walsh second engineer; H. R. Jones, mate; A. Alan cook Baillie. purser; Miguel Abila,r owner; Mrs. Abila, Miss Miller and Rafael Med iner, Abila's servant.
 The two women and all the men ex- cept Jones. who remained on the ves- sel, aided one another over the side as the schooner was being smashed to pieces, but could not mount high enough on the rocks to escape the clutch of the sea.
 Soon afterward the pounding hulk broke in two, flinging Jones into the sea. The ships dory floated within his reach and he climbed into 1t. There he was found exhausted hours later. Med- finer was tossed upon the beach un- conscious.
 Abila, the owner. was said to be a close friend of General Carranza, and was taking the vessel to Mexico for use in Carranzas service.

SUFFRAG|STSOF NEW CONE DENT 'ON EVE OF ELECTION
Enthusiasm Sweeps State and Demonstrations
 Reach Climax

Newark, October 1S-The campaign waged by women workers for suffrage reached it's climax tonight, election eve. in every part of New Jersey. All day suffrage banners fiuttered from hundreds of automobiles from Cape May to the New York line, and tonight there were few communities in the state where the voices of the feminine orators were not lifted in the streets for the cause
 In Newark a score or more of women workers have spoken without cessation since o'clock this morning, pausing only long enough to relieve one another. Dawn and daybreak. they say, will find them still at their post, for this 24-hour meeting is not to end until the polls open at o'clock for the suffrage amendment election. tf
 The last hours of the fight have set new record of political activity in New Jersey. The so-caled whirlwind Finishes of bygone campaigns within the memory of living voters have failed to equal tonights activity.
 President Wilson's vote for suffra ge will be cast in Princeton.
 The standards of the two big political parties which have opposed each other Tor 90 years have been sent to the back ground. Democrats and republicans are working side by side for suffrage against democrats and republicans working against it. Both sides claim victory.
 We expect to carry New Jersey by 25,oO9,' was the prediction of Mrs Lillian F. Feickert. president of the New jersey state association for woman's suffrage
 Woman suffrage will be defeated in New Jersey by large majority were the last words from Mrs. Edward Yarde Breese, president of the New Jersey As sociation Opposed to Woman Suffrage
 The polls will remain open until 9 o'clock at night. There is voting ma chine in the state, and returns. it Is thought, will be late

 Which was generally regarded as cow ardly.
 Since that sensational episode Mr Bar

He declared on many stumps that the people were not receiving justice at the hands of corporations of a public utility character, and if one judges bv the vote he received yesterday, the orator unquestionably made a deep and abiding impression.
