ISONLYHALFALAW Th: Bill Must Now Goto a Con ference Committee of Senators and Representatives. Washington, I). C'. —After TO daya of almost continuous deliberation the senate on Friday at 4:315 p. m. passed the railroad rate bill by the practic ally unanimous vote of 71 to 3. The three negative votes were cast by Sen ator Foraker, republican, of Ohio, and Senators Morgan and Pettus, demo crats, Alabama. The bill has received mere attention from the senate and from the country I at large than any measure that has been before congress since the repeal of the purchasing clause of the Sher man act, in 1893. It was reported to i the senate on February 2(i and was j made the unfinished business on March 12. From March 12 to May -1, ■ the bill was under general discussion j without limitation on the duration of I speeches, 58 of which were delivered. ' The principal purpose of the rail- ■ road rate bill is to permit the inter- j state commerce commission to fix ! rates. The provision conferring this ! authority is found in the fourth sec- I tion of the bill, which amends Section J 1") of the inter-state commerce law so ; as to accomplish this result. That ! section directs the commission to in- j vestigate complaints of unjust and un reasonable charges on the part of the common carriers in the transportation j of persons or property, or of regula- I tions or of practices affecting such I charges. It also authorizes an inquiry as to whether the rates or practices are j "unjustly discriminatory or unduly j preferential or prejudicial or other- j wise in violation of the act," and in ! case any of these conditions are found ! to exist the commission is empowered ' to prescribe what will be the reason- I able maximum rate and what regula- J tion is just, reasonable and fair. Fur ther, authority is given the commis- j sion to enforce its orders and they are j togo into effect within 30 days and j continue in force two years unless suspended, modified or set aside by the commission or by a court of compe- j tent jurisdiction. MILES Of FLAMES. Forest Fires in Michigan and Wiscon sin Cause Much Damage. Menominee, Mich.—Forest fires are raging in a large area in Me. nominee county, having already done much damage. Talbot, with 300 popu lation, 25 miles north ot' Menominee, was wiped out by fire last evening. The wind rose rapidly during the evening and endangered Daggett, Pow ers and other towns. It is reported ihat Saunders, 300 inhabitants, was burned. Quinneseo, 1,000 population, is reported on fire. The station agent at Daggett at 10 o'clock wired that the fire was half a mile from town and blowing directly towards the village. Marinette, Wis. The best in formation obtainable is that the fire which was sweeping the country ■north of here has reached Iron county, north of Dickison. This makes four counties which are suffering from fire. The area is 200 square miles. The country swept by the llames varies from pine timberland to barrens. Part is iron mining country and the district includes immense tracts of hardwood which has never been touched by the ax. DUN'S REVIEW. Warmer Weather Stimulates Trade in Seasonable Merchandise.

JTORTY TEARS AGO almost every mother thought her child must have PAREGORIC or laudanum to make it sleep. These drugs will produce sleep, and A FEW DROPS TOO MANY will produce the SLEEP FROM WHICH THERE IS NO WAKING. Many are the children who have been killed or whose health has been ruined for life by paregoric, laudanum and morphine, each of which is a narcotic product of opium. Druggists are prohibited from selling either the narcotics named to children at all, or to anybody without labelling them poison. The definition of narcotic " is! "A medicine which relieves pain ancl produces sleep, but which in poisonous doses produces stupor, coma, convul sions and death." The taste and smell of medicines containing opium are disguised, and sold under the names of "Drops," "Cordials," "Soothing Syrups," etc. You should not permit any medicine to be given to your children without you or your physician know of what it is composed.
