Editors Clash with Noble.

Prominent newspaper editors from
every corner of the state presented a
formidable array of enmity against the
bill OF Senator Noble, requiring patent
medicine companies to print their
formulas on bottles and packages. The
measure tends to kill much patent
medicine advertising and naturally the
publishers are opposed to it.

Picks Flaws in First Bill.

Section by section, S. A. Lynde,
railroad man, in the hearing, picked
flaws in the so-called administration
railroad rate bill. He declared that in
the face of great agitation, action had
been taken with too much haste, with
the result that an unfair bill had been
framed. AS a result of the many hear
ings on the subject, the substitute bill
covering all the contested points was
introduced

Call for Governors Proof.

For the first time in the history of
the commonwealth of Wisconsin, the
statements of a governor in his mes
sage were challenged when resolution
was introduced into the senate calling
upon Gov. La Toilette to give the de-
tailed figures upon which he based his
deductions in regard to the Wisconsin
railway earnings and to present the
same to the senate in full The reso-
luton was laid aside and a substitute
offered and adopted. The substitute
provides for committee of three SEN
ators to examine the reports from
which the governors figures were
taken and to report if from such state
ments it is possible to arrive at the
conclusions set forth in the governors
message.

Madison, Wis, March 6.--Railway
rate legislation and discussion are &C.
cupying the center of the stage here
and the glare of the legislative lime
light is making ordinarily important
matters seem of minor caliber beside
this great question. AS a elimination
OF the many hearings last week sub
stltute railroad rate commission bill
was introduced to take the place of the
administration measure ushered in by
Senator Hatten some time ago. Sena-
tor A. L. Kreutzer was sponsor for the
substitute measure. Briefly, the bill
differs from the So-called administra
ton measure in the following particu-
lars: 1t requires confirmation of the
appointment of commissioners by two
thirds OF all the senators, instead of
by the senate and assembly. 1t i'm
poses as duty upon the railroads the
doing of those things which the ad
mlnlstration bill gives the commission
the power to prescribe. 1t specifically
provides for commodity, concentration,
transit and other special contract rates.
1t contains the long and short haul
clause of the interstate commerce act.
1t provides for a stay of orders affect
ing rates or classificatiOns pending a
review thereof. The bill gives the
power of supervision and regulation
as opposed to the power to initiate
rates and make classification in the
first instance, and provides for a settle
ment of difficulties between shippers
and carriers without action on the part
of the COMMISSION other than notice
to the carriers. The bill follows on
the lines of the interstate commerce
commission act, as it would be had
the Townsend measure become a
law. A new stage in prospective legis-
lation is marked by the introduction
of this bill.
Many Hearings on Question.
Many hearings were held last week
and the two committees endeavored
TO get at the bottom of the question in
the most becoming manner possible.
consequently, after due consideration,
the substitute bill, framed after the de-
sires of the solons and from conclu-
siOns drawn from week Of hearings,
was submitted to the senate. The ar
gument of most Importance in behalf
of the roads was that of Burton Han
SON, >of the Chicago. Milwaukee & st.
Paul, who declared that the first rate
measure was the result of political
agitation, Misrepresentation and mis-
information and denied that the ship
pers were suffering any real wrongs.
Hanson declared that the statement
that the commission would save the
state $11,000,0O0 annually was ridicu-
lous and said that the roads of WiscOn-
sin were only clearing $14,O00,00O a
year. The figures furnished by Gov.
La Toilette were picked to pieces by
the speaker
