mention in anyway whatever of the
great northwest trade excursion. We
will, therefore, appreciate very much
your gathering together a copy of

length" of nine feet, and any innhold-
er, lodging house keeper, or sleep
ing car proprietor who fails to COM
ply with the new law is liable to a
fine.
The so-called public utilities bill.
which becomes a law in New York
today, is one of the most far-reach-
ing reform measures ever passed by
an American legislature. 1t puts un-
der direct state control every public
service corporation, great or small,
with the exception of the telephone
and the telegraph. Under the new
law four of the most important state
commissions pass out of existence. In
their place are to be two boards of
five members each, all of whom are
appointed by the governor, and these
boards are to have complete control
of the regulations governing the
transportation and lighting facilities
of the state. It will be for them to
compel all corporations to give safe
and adequate service at just and rea-
sonable rates; to prevent all rebates
and Determinations; to compel all
common carriers to have sufficient
cars and motive power, and to see
that they be held specifically liable
for loss or damage due to delay oc-
casioned by negligence.
The same law prohibits the giving
| of free passes except in a few limited
instances. 1t provides also that no
| franchise shall be capitalized In ex-
cess Of the amount actually paid to

Alexander Department Store Enlarged
and Equipped With Many New
Features.

The rearrangement and improve
ment of the front and interior Of the
Alexander department store build
ing are now complete and that es-
tablishment presents decidedly new
and improved appearance. The
plate glass windows placed In the new

windows are beautifully dressed in
suggestive Fourth of July colors and
designs and have attracted much at
tention today.
The interior of the building has
been materially changed also and a
large balcony added in which new
departments have been established.
The prism glass placed along the en-
tire front at the top of the plate

interior of the building is now well
lighter, showing to a much better ad-
vantage the large stock carried by
Mr.. Alexander.
Additions will be made to the stock
and the enlarged room will be used
in new features made necessary by
the constantly increasing business of
this well known merchant.

Washington, July Humorous
various states during the past win
ter and spring are to go into effect
today. A number of them are of a
more or less radical character, and
many are directed against the op-
Grafton of trusts and bucket-shops,
while others provide for the regula-
tion of railways and insurance COM
panies. Still others are decidedly OF
the freak order.
In half a dozen states the 2-cent
passenger rate and maximum freight
rate laws come into operation today
In Iowa an anti-pass law goes into
force.
The new local option law of Illi-
nois, which goes into force today, is
expected to close hundreds of sa-
looms, especially in the rural districts.
In South Carolina an anti-bucket
shop law becomes effective. The law
is patterned after the Georgia law
and is expected to result in the clos
ing up of all exchanges dealing in fu-
lures.
In South Carolina also a new 10
hour labor law affecting cotton mills
goes into operation. For the present
the mills will be permitted to MAIN
tain schedule of 62 hours a week,
but on January 1 the 60-hour sched-
ule will go into effect.
The measures enacted by the last
session of the Texas legislature are
not to com into force until July IL.
The most important of the new laws
in the Lone Star state, or the one
of most general interest, is that
which requires the life insurance
companies doing business in the
state to invest 75 per cent of the re-
serve on Texas business in Texas Sc
curities and deposit them with the
state treasurer. A number Of the big
insurance companies have decided to
withdraw from Texas rather than
comply with the new law.
Another measure passed by the
Texas legislature entities a traveller
