Also remember that Van Camps is not like
condensed milk" All so-caled "condensed
milks" are half sugar. The sugar is used to
preserve them.
Therefore, CONDENSED milk" is but little
more than half milk. And, because of the sugar,
you can't use it for cooking,
Van Camps is nothing but milk. We add
no sugar, no starch, no opreservative, The pre-

Van Camps serves for cooking Just as we'll

SULzER WINNING
FIGHT AGAINST
UNITED ENEMIES
CongreSsman'S Reelection Is
Certain Despite Efforts of Re-
publicans and Socialists.

Taking advantage OF the fact that
there is Socialist candidate in the
field, the Republican Congressional
Committee is making a terrific fight TO
Congress In the Tenth District. Never
bsfore have the Republicans in that
district had so much money TO spend,
ana Il is firmly believed by Mr.. Sulzer's
campaign managers that the Repubii
cans are rendering surreptitious tnan-
cial aid TO the Socialists in the hope of
reducing the Democratic vote.
The district is overwhelmingly Dem
ocratic under ordinary circumstances.
and Congressman Sulzer's personal
popularity. combined with his record OF
accomplishments for his constituents,
makes the task of beating him we'll

heretofore the Republican Congress
slonai Committee has refrained from
wasting time or money in the Tenth
against Suizer.
VIII Win Despite Money.
Despite the pronounced activity Of his
opponents. Mr.. Suizer has been greeted
with the same old enthusiasm at his
meetings, and his campaign managers
figure on a plurality Of least 1000. There

money TO break down the loyal support
Of. tine prosperous, thrifty workingmen
who make up the bulk of the electorate

Not only does the general record of
Congressman Sulzer in the House of

have entrenched him in their regard.
He has never in his career in Congress
been on the wrong side of any measure

How Quality is Reduced

1t is just a question of evaporation. One
third of the water of raw milk can be taken out
by evaporation, OF twice as much water can be
taken out The resulting product of both proc
esses will look and taste much alike
But stop and think of the difference in cost
Realize how it will be when you come to dilute
the milk for use.
Is it not perfectly plain why some brands of
milk are urged you by manufacturers as
"Just good as Van Camps"2 Don't take
some other brand and think it is like Van

Sanitary Milk

But Van Camps means more than richness,
more than economy to you. Our COWS
inspected. SO are the men who milk them.
Our dairies are sanitary Cleanliness is
carried to extremes. The buildings where our
milk is evaporated are built without wood.
When you get Van Camps, you know that
every precauton has been taken against infec-
ton, You know nothing of other miks.
The evening world., 1908-11-02
The Difference

The difference is in the richness, for after
purity, richness controls the value of milk
The manufacturer of some other brand may
have told your grocer his brand is as rich as
Van Camps. But is it so?
Just now the United States laws don't protect
you and your grocer against weak, Evaporated
Milk because the standard has been relaxed
The law is not enforced. There is much com
petition and great temptation to reduce the
quality so the wholesale prices can be reduced,
Van Camps Milk has not been reduced in
price (your grocer will tell you tha) and we
positively guarantee you the quality has not
and Will not be reduced.
Quality is what you must have and we know
1t is wise to give it to you.
So quality is what you can depend upon in
Van Camps Milk.

VANCOUVER. B. c., Aug S.
Promptly at 10 o'clock, on scheduled
time, all the men in the mechanical
departments Of the Canadian Pacific
Railroad laid down their tools and
walked out, precipitating what will
probably prove the bitterest indus
trial war in the history Of Canada.
Montreal and Toronto are expected
10 90 out this afternoon. Three hun
dred men quit here and are now in
session Nine hundred are out at
Winnipeg.
The strike is likely to be quiet and
orderly. as the men figure that all
they have to do is to sit tight. One
leader at Winnipeg declares that
within ten days not a wheel will be
moving on the Western lines. The
general public hardly realizes that
the strike is really on or that it can
continue, as the biggest crop in the
history OF Canada is just ready to be
cut under the best of conditions, and
the strike, il continued, will paralyze
the whole movement and leave the
grain rotting in the field. Under ordi-
nary conditions it would tax the
railway company to transport the
men needed in the harvest fields.

Long Hours In Jail Causes Ter
ror That Brings on Frenzied
Condition
CASE FOR JUVENILE COURT
The Lad Still Insists That Shooting
Was in Self Defense and His Story
is Partly Corroborated by Other
Children.

PORTLAND, Aug 5. Jackson
Reid, the il-year-old boy, who shot
and killed George F. De Mars on
Government Island in Guilds Lake
yesterday afternoon, has now faint
appreciation OF the magnitude. Of his
crime. And with this understanding
has come terror so great that the boy
lis in an almost frenzied condition.
Early this morning he was taken in
charge by officers of the Juvenile
Court and removed from the city Jail
to the court house. There he is CON
fined in cell, and so deep is his dis
tress that the presence Of his friends
and relatives can only allay his suf-
fering.
1t was only this morning, after a
long night Of solitude and meditation
in the jail, that the boy began to real
|ize the enornity Of his offense. Until
then the affair had appeared to him
one Of uncommon interest and one in
which lot Of people had concerned
themselves, but he was rather in
clined to believe that he had done a
worthy deed and one much to his
credit But the long hours of the
night disillusionized him. ,-sssa.
However, he still insists that the
shooting was in self-difense and his
assertions are partly corroborated BY
other children who witnessed the
tragedy. He says that De Mars and
his brothers were not only attacking
his dog, but threatened him. 1t was
only after the threat and hostile
movements of De Mars toward him,
he says, that he fired.
A formal complaint will be made
against the boy this afternoon after
the verdict of the coroner's jury
which will hold an inquest at 5
o'clock today.
He is the stepson Of Charles H.
Schemp, who, with his family lives
