WOULDTHRQWQUT
REPUBLICAN VOTE
Chairman Ellyson Regrets Action
of Nottoway County
Democrats. j
Notlco has been practically served
on the Nottoway County Democratic
Committee by State Chairman J. Tay?
lor Ellyson that If the local body per?
sists In Itn determination to allow
Republicans to vote In the approach?
ing primary, the State Committee will
declare the vote void. A contest
would rosult In the elimination of the
returns from those precincts where
Republicans arc allowed to take part,
according to Mr. Ellyson.
In a letter from the State chairman
to County Chulrmnn J. M. Harris, at?
tention Is called to the avowed atti?
tude of the State Democratic Commit?
tee on this subject. The letter follows:
J. M. Harris. Esq., Chairman, Black
stone, Va.:
My Dear Sir,??I beg to acknowledge
your letter of yesterday. I regret that
the County Committee of Nottoway
should have decided to permit Repub?
licans to vote In the primary on Sep?
tember 7. This 1b in violation of the
party primary plan, adopted by the
State convention, which provides that
only "white Democrats who are, or .
will be, legal voters at the election at
which the General Assembly Is to be
chosen, which Is to elect t. United
States Senator shall be entitled to
vole at any primary election held to
nominate a party senatorial candi?
date."
The State Central Committee, which
met In this city May 3 to make prep?
arations for the nomination of a L'nlted
States Senator, adopted the following
resolution, a copy of which I sent on
May S to evecy county and city chair?
man In the State. The resolution
reads:
"Resolved. That the attention of the
Judges of election lb especially
to that provision of the plan for the
primary election which declares that
oniy white Democrats are entitled to
vote In the primary election, nnd this
> ommlttec calls upon eald Judges of
the election to rigidly enforce this
provision of the primary election."
Would Be Vit tuted
In view of the action of the State
convention and tho action of the State
Central Committee, I do not hesitate
to say that notwithstanding the ac?
tion of your committee In agreeing to
allow Republicans to vote, that you
should not permit them to do so, for
any election where Republicans are
permitted to take part In the nomi?
nation of l'nlted States Senators or
of county o?leera or the selection of
eounty commltteemen will be vitiated
by the participation of the Republi?
cans In said election, and If the mat?
ter Is brought to the attention of the
State Committee, aald election will be
declared nuil and void us to any and
all precincts where Republicans arc
allowed to vote.
The party primary plan plainly pro?
vides that only white Detnocrts may
participate in our primary, and other
voters should, therefore, be denied the
right to do so. If you. as chairman,
will do this, the State Committee Will
uhquestlonaby sustain you. This opin?
ion npplles not only to those who vote
for t'nlted States Senators, but to
those who participate in the selection
of county officers as well. The prl

In reply to your further inquiry, beg

FILED BY "DRYS"
They Seek to Overturn Result of
Recent Local Option
Election.
GROUNDS ARE TECHNICAL
At Mass-Meeting in Staunton,
Independent Ticket Is
Nominated.
[Special to Tbe Tlmes-Db<patch ]
Staunton. V?., August lft.?A sensation wai
sprung here this afternoon when the "drys"
Oled In the Corporation Court notice of
contest of the recent local option election
which went "wet." The grounds are wholly
technical and based on alleged failure of
the city treasurer to file a proper list of
persons >'hn hud paid poll taxes, according
to law, and of tho dark to certify the tame
to the aergeant. and the failure of the ser?
geant to post It. It Is the point decided by
Judge Muples at Roanokc favorably to th?
contention made by the 'drys." This aus
pends all action looking to licensing bar?
rooms until the contest Is decided.
Name Independent Ticket.
The "dry*" of .staunton and Augusta
county of all political parties held a wtll
,u tended meeting this morning and put a
full legislative ticket In the field. Prof. C.
T. Jordan was named for the Senate rind
H. M. Lewis, a real estate and Insurance
agent of Staunton. and VV, A. Kite, manu?
facturer, of Wayneahoro. for the House.
Prof. Jordan declined to run. and a com?
mittee was empowered to fill his place.
An ?ffon was mado by H. H Blease.
chairman, to secure postponement of ac?
tion and try to force the Democratic candi?
dates to commit themselves to a "dry" pro?
gram, but he was voted down. There wero
many well known county and city men at
the meeting:.
After the meeting a movement was set on
foot among the county men present to bring
pressure to bear on Prof. C T. Jordan to
luce him t0 remain on the ticket for the
negate, as they regard him as the strongest
man for the place. Prof. Jordan led the
local option fights for the "drys" In Staun?
ton In ilSOS and again this year winning the
frst and :os:ng the last fight.
The "drys" expressed themselves as gTeat
l>" pleased with the attendance and enthus?
iasm of the meeting1.
Democrats were surprised that the strong
appeal of H. H. Oleas? to Interrogate Dem?
ocratic candidates and postponement nomi?
nating until their answers had been re?
ceived was turned down so overwhelmlr.g
It was generally believed that a waiting
policy would be adopted.

OVER STEEP HILLS
New Motor-Driven Fire Engine
Given a Test That Is
Truly Swift.
The large motor fire engine, built by
the Knox Automobile Company, ot
.Springfield, Mass., for the Richmond
Fire Department, yesterday traversed
the principal streets of the city.
This mammoth machine is the first
of Its kind to Invade the South?in fuct,
there is only one more of Its type in
the country. One is now being per
fected for the New York Fire Depart?
ment. There are a great number of
motor fire engines in use, but they ar*
of the smaller and frailer type.
This Knox combination machine is a
fire department in Itself. It consists of
u powerful pumping engine, capable ol
throwing one. two or three effective
streams at the same time; it has a com?
plete chemical engine and equipment,
has an extra large hose wagon body,
with capacity for 1,200 feet of fire
hose, It is fully equipped with ladders,
fire axes, crow bars, pike poles, door
openers, fire buckets and all other I
equipment usually carried on a hook
and ladder truck; its ladders are one I
thlrty-flve-foot extension, one twenty-j
foot extension, one twenty-foot straight i
and a twelve-foot wall or roof ladder,
which are carried on brackets above
and on the sides of the apparatus,
lias Powerful Kuglne.
The powerful engine that propels
this machine Is a six-cylinder, four?
cycle engine, of the Knox pattern, and
has an actual brake horse power of
79.4, and can easily negotiate any hill
In the city at at least twenty miles an
hour, and on a level It can exceed thirty
miles per hour. Then, on Its arrival
at a fire, the same engine, that carried
It to the blaze, by the simple tripping
of a clutch, throws its enormous power
into Its pumps.
This machine Is over twenty-one feet
in length, and Is about thirteen feet
high. Its wheels are ? forty Inches,
equipped with solid rubber tires, five
inch in front" ?.nd four-inch dual tires
in the rear, with a wheel base of 170
Inches.
The engine has a capacity of carry?
ing from twelve to fifteen men. besides
Its regular equipment. Its weight as
It stands empty is 12.000 pounds, and
when equipped for service it will weigh
15,000 pounds, and at once Impresses an
observer with its power and effective?
ness.
A committee from the Board of Fire
Commissioners Is now arranging a se?
ries of tests for Its official tryout. and
will to-morrow decide upon the day It
will be officially Inspected and tested.
TossiHy the test will take place about
the middle of next week, but in the
meantime the demonstrator from the
factory Is here and has In hand sev?
eral firemen, who are being instructed
In the proper management of the ma?
chine. When It Is accepted and placed
in service It will do duty in the heart
of the mercantile section of tho city,
having its quarters in Engine Company
No. 4. on Third Street, between Broad
and Grace Streets, and will cover a
largo territory, and much effective
work Is expected from It.
May liny Others Later.
If this machine proves satisfactory,
as all concerned predict, it will be the
beginning of a new era In the Fire
Department, as, besides Its great effi?
ciency, the motor machine Is much more
economical than the horse-drawn ap?
paratus. Engines of this type can
-tyjver much more territory and^d??It
In one-third the time of horses, and
then when they return to the quarters
they are again ready for another run.
and r.ever get tired, besides tho saving
In horse feed end coal (as all steam
Are engines have to keep at least
twenty pounds of steam on the boilers
at all times), and the necessary dirt
and odors. They also are great labor
savers, as tho present steam companies
require an cnglneman, a stoker, a
driver and a hose wagon driver, while
with the motor engine, one man, the
chauffeur, who also runs the engine at
fires, takes the place of these four men,
and will thus allow three more men to
be at the streams, whore they are so
badly needed.

Made With Germless Milk
Madam, here is a question?a daily question?of prime importance to
you and yours. Pray give us a moment's hearing. .
There are myriads of women
?who have ceased the use of
raw, germ-laden milk. Some
have done it for safety, some
for economy, some to get bet?
ter food.
They are using Van Camp's?a sterile milk
from pure-bred Holstein cows. They get a whole,
rich milk with the whole-milk flavor. They make
milk dishes with it such as milkman's milk never
makes.
They have it always on hand ? the cow right
in the pantry. And their milk bills, since they
started, have been cut in two.
All of those benefits arc open to you in this
rich, hygienic milk.
Thick as Thick Cream
Van Camp's Milk as it comes to you is as thick
as thick cream. So thick that you add one part
water for coffee, for cooking or ice cream. It is
28 per cent solids?8 per cent butter fat.
This is how we reduce it:
The milk fresh from the cow is put into a vac?
uum. There we evaporate two-thirds of the
water, just to save shipping bulk. On account of
the vacuum, the water
is evaporated in a mod?
erate beat, without
scorching.
Nothing is added, as
there is to condensed
milk ? no sugar, no
Peach Ice Cream
Mix t^o cans of Van
Camp's Milk with one cau
ot cold water that has
been boiled. Dissolve in
this three-lourths pound
of granulated sugar, turn
into the freezer and freeze.
Pare and seed one quart
peaches. Mash these atid
mix In the frozen creatn.
Crank the ireezer several
times and let harden.

recipes, including all sorts
of Ice cream.

starch, no preservative. Nothing is subtracted
save water. When you put back that water tho
milk is the same?save for sterilization?as it waa
when it came from the cow.
Utterly Sterile
The evaporated milk is sterilized by heat?after
the can is sealed. . The milk when you get it is
utterly sterile. Not a germ of any kind can exist
in it.
Raw milk, as you know, contains millions of
germs. Van Camp's contains none at all. This
sterilization is now considered essential. Careful
people won't use milk without it,
Whole-Milk Flavor
Milk dishes made with Van Camp's Milk are
exceedingly rich and savory. Dishes made of
milkmen's milk cannot compare with them.
Some women think that this flavor is due to
something artificial, but it isn't. It is simply tho
flavor of whole, rich milk.
Milkmen's milk separates. The butter fat rises
and the solids fall. When that milk gets to the
cooking it is rarely more than a half-milk.
Van Camp's cannot separate. It contains too
little water. So it brings to your milk dishes the
whole-milk flavor. When you learn what that
means you will never cook without it.
Milk Bills Cut in Two
When Van Camp's is reduced to the usual
milk's richness the cost will figure about six cents
per quart.
The saving lies in the cost of daily delivery?
the main cost of milkman's milk. We save that
huge expense.
Then Van Camp's saves waste. You have no
milk left over. You never run short. You open
a can when you need it, and it keeps till you uso
it up.
This saving in cost and the saving in waste
mean a saving of half on your milk bills.
Cost Us $100,000
The seven years spent in perfecting this milk
have cost us $100,000. The ablest Swiss and
Dutch experts have been engaged on it. All to
give you an unscorched milk?changeless and
utterly sterile.
Our cows are Holsteins, constantly inspected.
Our dairies are models of cleanliness. Our evap?
orating plants are built without wood.
You get the best milk produced in America, at
the price of the ordinary,
when you get Van Camp's.
The 16-or. cans?a full
pint?costs 10 cents. The
6-oz. can- costs 5 cents.
Your grocer has it, shipped
from our nearest dairy.

aging twenty-six miles, and It was not
"let out" at that.
Many . preliminary runs will he made
all ever the city before the official i
test Is made, and everybody will have
an opportunity to see the new fire ?

a large locomotive bell, a regular
