it's hard say it. but they do. And what is harder
to say they lose their attractions and longer

sweetens with age. Why shouldn't she-she is provided
for and has husband and children to do her honor But
the aging in the store and the in the factory
why, THEY are not needed any more AND THAT Is
A TRAGEDY.

road Rates.

Des Moines, Apr. 1S.-Attorney Gen.
eral Byers has ruled that the state
railroad commission has power to
compel railroad company to charge
its short line rates between two
points, even though it routes the pas
sengers by the long haul route.
The case is the complaint of Gill
more City and others against the Min
neapoks & st. Louis railroad, which
company made the people bound for
Des Moines go round by FIT. Dodge
from Tara and Ruthven and pay the
longer rate. The main point involved
is decided by Attorney Byers in the
following language:
Even if the section was applicable
a reasonable and proper construction
of it when considered with the whole
body of the railroad laws of the state
would authorize the commission to
proceed as requested, and on the
whole controversy / hold that, upon
the facts in this case. your commIss-
ion has ample authority to compel the
Minneapolis & st. Louis Railroad
company to charge its short line rates
between points north of Tara and Des
Moines while routing its trains via
FIT. Dodge and Angus, the longer line,
and that such order will have no eff
feet whatever upon rates to Des
Moines from Fl. Dodge and points
south"
