SEATTLE, "Wash., Nov. 18. (Special.)
Bringing news of the methods taken
to defend "Victoria, B. C, against Ger
man raids that would have been blue
penciled by the British Columbia cen
sor if offered by telegraph. J. W. Camp
bell, of Portland, Or., arrived here with
a lively description of the military ac
tivities of the British authorities.
While Esquimalt is at present the
base of the naval operations of His
Majesty's officers on the Coast, he said
Victorians .believe that the base will
be changed soon to that city, in view
of the fact that drydocks and other
accommodations, for many years in
active and now being overhauled, are
located there. Mr. Campbell says:
"Three cruisers In the vicinity, mines
In the harbor, lookout cruisers and
scout boats patrolling the shores and
constant communication with observers
at the southernmost border of Can
ada are considered ample protection by
the Victorians against any attack by
the Germans.
"All the valuables of the seacoast
towns in Canada have been sent to in
terior points for safe-keeping and the
residents are keeping their households
in such a condition that evacuation
could be accomplished in a short time
if necessary. Kvery able-bodied man
in the province is passing all his spare
time at the excellently-equipped rifle
range, learning to use the army gun.
"The women of Vietorla are active in
preparing clothing for soldiers on the
Continent. Women on streetcars and
at afternoon teas can be seen with
knitting needles In hand."-

Reason for the
Sale:
About a year ago we started here
in Portland at great expense a
clothing factory in which we
have been turning out a large
amount of Suits, Overcoats and
Pants. We figured that we could
use about one-half our output in
our own retail stores, the balance
we endeavored to sell at wholesale
to other merchants. An extremely
dull season has made it impossible
for us to sell anywhere ' near the
amount' of good3 we could manu
facture and the result has been
to pile up clothing until we now
have fully $100,000 more goods on
hand than we should have at this
time of the year.

Owner Brownsville Woolen Mill
