an addition to the mail transportation
facilities of the country in the form
Of fifty reindeer. The purchase was
made from DIR. Grenfell of Labrador.
The animals will be taken from Labra-
dor by boat to Quebec in September
and will go by train to Edmonton or

to complete the journey down the
Athabaska river to Fort Smith. which
is the destination of the herd
The reindeer proved great success
in Labrador, the original herd of 800
having grown by natural increase to
1900. 1t is believed that the expert

Washington, July 14.-Senator La
Toilette, in a speech against reciproc-
ity, reviewed act by act the admins

ing tones and declared that the con.
test involved was the fight between
the plain people and confederated
privilege"
Summing up his indictment against
the president Senator La Toilette as
serted the executive had attempted to
commerce law favorable to the rail-
roads; had thrown open Controller
bay, Alaska, key to the coal fields, to
corporation interests; removed hon
est and efficient James r. Garfield"
from the head of the interior depart
ment and replaced him with Ballil
ger; and that his course has been
vacillating and without definite policy
because apparently there has been
throughout his administration no deep
conviction other than the hour makes
it appear expelient."
LII the beginning the reciprocity
bill was heralded as a blessing to the
consumers. So was the tariff bill of
1908. 1t promises to reduce duties
for the benefit of the people. 1t re-
duces nc duties, the effect of which
can ever reach the people, but 1t does
reduce duties for the millers, the
packers, Standard Oil, the brewers,

interests. 1t is nothing that 1t pre-

lows Of Flames.

Toronto, Ont, July 14.-Vast pillows
OF fire, miles in length, continue to
roll through the camps, woods and
brush in the Porcupine mining dis
trict of this province and the regions
to the north. Unverifed reports con-
tinue to swell the number of fatalities.
Some estimates are as high as 500
dead. The financial losses represent
a huge sum. More details of death
and suffering, with those also of nu-
mefous miraculous escapes, are COM
ing in gradually.
Many persons have died in isola-
ton; miners huddled in shafts have
perished; fires have overwhelmed
whole families and only charred re-
mains are left.
Men, women and children and do
mestic anl wild animals, standing to-
gether for hours in swamps, while the
flames licked up the countryside, have
In some cases sunk at last to death
Others have weathered the fiery
storm, standing in streams and put
ting out into lakes in boats and ca
noes.
Mines Completely Wiped Out.
Many of the richest mines in the
Porcupine region have been complete
ly wiped out and their operating
forces have met death in the flames,
which, famed by high winds, are rush.

sands of acres of heavily timbered
lands that stretch northward and west

1t will be be several days before the
death list and property loss can be
learned with any degree of accuracy,
but indications are that the holocaust
is the greatest in the history of the
Dominion.
Employed in the Dome mines were
400 workmen. When the fire reached
the scene the entire property was sur
rounded SO quickly that the only
means of escape was down the shafts
