Eagle River review. [volume] (Eagle River, Wis.) 1890-1927, 1909-01-22

The rebuking Of leading lawyers by
a judge for undignified performances,
unseemly wrangling, fippant 'asides"
and objectless Interruptions is an I'M
usual occurrence in this latitude. 1t
is the more welcome on that account
and the more hopeful. Certainly the
exhibitions and scenes which have pro-
voked the censure are far from being
exceptional in American courts, and the
judges are, as a rule, too tndulgent
and too long-suffering. Many Ameri-
can lawyers have commented on the
contrast that the British court atmos-
phere presents to the American. In
England the lawyers really act like
Officers of the COURT they treat the
presiding magistrate with due respect
and Difference, and they refrain from
personalities, theatrical outbursts, dis
plays of cheap wit and the bandying
Of epithets and slurs. In America
farce scandals In the courtroom are so
common that most laymen and lawyers
take them as a matter of course. The
new code of legal ethics adopted by the
American Bar Association is already
a dead letter as far as dignity and
propriety in the courtroom are con-
cerned, and the worst Of it is that it
is not the shysters who are the most
pernicious offenders. for from them the
judges would hardly stand much non
sense. 1t is the strong and influential
lawyers whom the judges hesitate to
call to account when they permit them
selves scandalous breaches Of decorum
and good manners. AS some independ-
ent judges have frankly said, the
State bench is often afraid Of the bar,
since the occupants Of the former have
to think of reelection, of possible re-
tirement and return to practice. Such
considerations, however, do not ex-
cuse excessive weakness and lack Of
self respect The bar associations
themselves would collectively uphold a
firm and dignified policy on the part Of
the bench, a policy that should aim at
the suppression of dreary and vulgar
farce scenes in court and that should
accentuate the gravity and good faith
of judicial proceedings.

HOPE FOR THE SMALL FARMER.
BY Robert Fl. Schaumel

Everywhere the South Is already catching fire
with the new and radical idea that the small
farmer may really make money. In Virginia,
farmers, Oh land valued at 81 an acre, have
suddenly taken to growing crops valued at
500 an acre. Young men are beginning to stay
In the country in order to make money. Even
the young men in city sweatshops and fac
tories have caught the glad tidlngs and are

ldIenes. Promotes Insanity.

Cleveland Plain Dealer.
A special news dispatch from Pitts
burg to the Washington Post tells Of
a menacing situation in. the Western
Penitentiary due TO increasing insanity
among convicts. II accurate, the story
offers convincing proof of the deleter-
ious effects of idleness among the
prisoners. "Convicts are going insane
by the Wholesale" says the corre-
spondent-
The statement is made that Of the
1,sOO prisoners only 30 per cent. are
provided with work. To make the
available employment go as far as
possible the men are given turns, each
convict working for a week and then
remaining idle some 40 days. This is.
of course, the all-efficient explanation
OF the insanity figures. Idleness pro-
notes viciousness and unsoundness Of
mind. 1t is a prime article in the
penal reformcrs code that convicts
shall not be permitted to-or be forced
to remain idle.
Somewhat the same situation con-
fronts the authorities Of the Ohio Peni-
tentiary. owing to the operations OF
the Wertz law. However, Il Is con-
fidently believed that the difficulty here
win be temporary and that adequate
means will be found TO keep the con-
victs employed and out Of danger Of
mental collapse.

COUNCIL AND MR. RASH.

ITY Council has decided for the present at
- least to take no heed of the advice sud-
denly given il to eject Councilman Rash forth
with but is content to let the law take its course.
All this talk about qualification" is bosh and
designed to make trouble for Council. 1t is 4
reflection upon the Democratic lawyers who have
been advising Council in the matter. If Council
were to oust Mr.. Rash, it would also have TO
remove City Treasurer Ross and kick up a still
bigger commotion.
1t is fair to presume that the men who we're
able to rally two hundred witnesses on a jump
arc able to map out course foe Council 70 prr-
sue. At any rate, the Councilmen do not want
to take chances of trouble with the courts. The
witnesses were forced by Council to wait for their
pay and the eager Democrats should wait until
the court passes upon the points involved.
AT any rate the Hon. James Kane should have
reason to believe that the paper which razzle-
dazzed him when he was made chairman of the
siinncg Committee is trying to get him into
trouble with the courts For II Council should
fire Rash with the aid of the police the same
forces that are urging Council TO take this step
would probably denounce Kane as a blunderer.
And why should Council take the advice of those
who admit that the certiorari writ is myster-
ious and, perhaps, loaded with legal dynamite 7
Confessing that they don't know what this writ
means. they urge others to do something which
might bring them within the censure of the court
Let the mystery continue ior little while
longer, Mr. Dempsey may be man of sound
sense and judgment We don't doubt that, but
he certainly is not supposed to be as learned in
the law as Mr.. Whiteman or the City Solicitor.
For our own part we wish that Mr. Whiteman
and Mayor Spruance would exchange letters OH
the subject. We enjoy good reading.

ONE USE FOR PROMINENT MEN.

MlNENT men" whose opinions count for
- something, find many and different uses
for their names. In fact, the name is worth
something substantial 10 them, and they can have
a good name and riches also.
Some book publishing concerns have happy
plan of employing the names of able persons
who are supposed to carry weight in a commun-
ity. They send letters to these persons telling
them that If they give an endorsement TO such
a book, they will be presented with so many vol
umes free of charge. The words of approval,
If obtained, are then printed and sent around for
the purpose of influencing the general public, or
the ultimate consumer Of books. to buy.
See what endorsements we have for our works.
Here is a testimonial from Colonel Highball say
ing that he has examined our books and that they
are fine. And you know that whatever Colonel
Highball, who is distinguished man of wit and
learning. says must have great weight with
you. And here is good letter from the Rev.
DR.. Filthy, who has also a set CT our books.
He is a learned man and you must respect his
opinion. And just read what Lawyer Mandamus
says OF our works, and how Professor Algebra
approves them. And so on and so on.
OF course most publishers do not play this
game, but scme do in its various notifications
The people are supposed to be influenced
thereby, and perhaps they are to large extent,
but IT is rather gullible person who buvs any
thing simply because some supposedly promi-
nent person has set his approval on It, However
the desire for imitation is very potent One man
buys book and another follows suit One man
builds big house and his neighbor does net want
to be outdone One girl wears peach basket

The news Of the death OF Mr. Branch II.
Giles, at Denver Col, will bring sadness TO the
hearts OF those persons in Delaware who were
acquainted with him. Although he left this city
years ago during the brief time he prachced law
here he made many friends His residence in
Denver, where he reached the front ranks OF his
profession, was a residence of necessity and not
of choice. Mr. Giles had intended to practice
his profession in his native state, but impaired
health forced him to seek the climate of Den
yer. While practicing law in Delaware he was
the Deputy Acknowledgement when former Chan
cellor Nicholson was Attorney-General. Mr..
Giles was always a hard student. He was an
honor man in the class of 1888 in which he was
graduated at Lafayette College and was president
of his class. He took high rank at the Harvard
Law School A most promising career in Della
ware was opened to him when he started his
active life here Conscientious, courteous, honor
able, devoted to high principles as a young man,
this character stuck to him all through life A
noble specimen Of Delaware manhood has passed
away in his Western home of adoption.

There is perhaps, enough idle dabor about

rHE NOISE NUISANCE.

M EMBERs Of City Council may see some
\ thing funny in petition of residents
OF the neighbornood of front and Jackson
streets asking that the nuisance of a man shout
ing his wares for sale at all hours OF the night;
should be abated, but we confess that we md
nothing humorous to be laughed at in this
petition.
Ii was a respectfully worded petition calling
attention 10 the fact that the hard working people
OF that neighborhood have their sleep disturbed
by these pedders, who make night hid
eous. The petitioners said that when this crab
man started with his noise it was impossible for
many of them to sleep. Is there anything re-
markably funny in that? 1t is a wonder that
some of the people who have been distressed and
disturbed by this noise have not thrown hot
water or bricks at the crab man, and had they not
been law abiding persons they would have done
so long ago.
We wish that other residents of the city would
make complaints against such noises as the
people about Front and Jackson streets have
done Every Tom, Dick and Harry in Whining
ton seems to be privileged to go around at all
hours of the night or early morning making
rackets of various kinds, especially if lie is sup
posed to be engaged in some sort of business
II the Councilmen think the crab man and his
racket are funny, they should arrange for him to
give them a special serenade every night for a
week, and we surmise that their sense of humor
would change

Six Cents Per Quart

The io-cent can of Van Camps contains a
full pint. If you buy by the case, as every
one should, the cans will cost less than 10
cents.
When you replace the water which we take
out, you have rich Holstein milk at about
six cents per quart
1t is cheaper than raw milk, for half the
price of raw milk is the cost of the daily de-
livery.
And Van Camps means cowin your kitchen.
Rich milk or cream at any time, as little or
much as you want.
No shortage; no planning in advance for

You buy a case at a time, and all your

Let us ask, at the start. what possible rea-
son you can have for not using Van Camps?
II is canned, of course, but canned fresh
from the COW. And your milkman's milk
comes in cans.
It is sterilized, that is true But all milk
is sterilized when you have cooked with it.
1t is reduced by evaporation, but you can
put the water back in jiffy.
You have not one reason against Van
Camps. And there are all of these reasons
for it.

In Van Camps you get the whole milk
all the butter fat all the solids. Yet it costs
you less than a half-milk. See what a diff
ference this makes in your milk dishes.
When Van Camps is drunk cold, il has a
slight almond flavor, due to the heat applied
in sterilization. In cooking OF eoffee-where
you heat the milk anyway-the slight scalded
flavor is entirely lost.
This flavor is a sign of purity. It is es-
sential to safety. For no careful mother
will let children drink raw milk

Van Camps is Safe

Van Camps Milk is utterly sterile.
The cows and the milkmen are healthy.
They are subject to constant inspection.
Our dairies are sanitary. Our evaporating
plants are all built without wood.
Every can of milk is sterilized after the
can is sealed. So the protection is absolute
No germ can exist in Van Camps.
Evening journal., 1909-09-02
Not Like Condensed

Don't think of Van Camps as condensed
milk, for condensed milk is nearly half G-gar.
Sugar was the old way of preserving milk
before the days of sterilization.
Condensed milk is so largely sugar that il
is very expensive. And you can't use it for
cooking because it's too sweet Such un-
natural milk is long out of date. Van Camps
is natural milk, preserved by modern meth
ods.
Nor is Van Camps like other brands of
evaporated. For this Is Holstein milk, reduced
to the minimum bulk.
Common milk, only partly evaporated, is
often said to be as good as Van Camps.
Bot nearly every housewife knows that IL
isa't. So don't he miSled.

Serves Every Purpose

For coffee or cereals, add one part water.
for Van Camps is as thick as thick cream.
For cooking or drinking, add little more
water. Reduce to the richness desired.
Van Camps gives to milk dishes rich
ness and flavor which you never get from
raw milk.
MilkInan's milk separates-before and af-
ter you get it. So your cooking milk, usu-
ally, is scarcely more than half-milk.

Pure HoIstein Milk

Van Camps comes from Holstein COVE
the worlds best breed. Holstein cows arc
robust and contented. They are famous for
their vitality. The milk they give is vastly
better for children than milk from mongrel
cows.
This milk, fresh from the cow. is put into
a vacuum. And moderate heat, because of
the vacuum, throws off the water in steam.
Thus we take out two-thirds of the water,
and the milk that results is 2S per cent solids
3 per cent butter fat.
