The HUDSON RIVER MoSopoLY.-The commu-
nifty ignorant Of the huge power and influence of
the Hudson River monopoly Of boats that levya
tax Of SO on all travellers, when 81 would pay thema
handsome profit During the present season Captain
Dean the enterprising commander of the Arrow, has
started oPpositvn h-e Gerry passengers at 81.
and we have doubt the public will support this
wholesome measure.
The moaopy consists of eight boats at present. In
1885 what was called the Peoples line started
in opposition TO the Old Line. The Peoples Line
ran part Of the Of that year at ST. but after
certain offers they induced to join the Old Line
and have been running in combination ever since at
the exorbitan charge of 50. The principal managers
or owners Of this com bination are follows r. Dun
lap of Albany who the Dewitt Clinton-Tsny
Hoffman Of New York, the Swaow-Daniel Drew
of New York, owns the Rochester and Utica, be-
sides several other persons ia Albany and along
the River. The capital invested in this monopoly is
nearly $500 O00-and the influence they exert to pre-
vent any opposition line to q boat at 81 at 81

New York induced or persuaded TO build or sell
no boat to any person who wishes to opposi-

We trust, however, that he will persevere. The
public is with him. Ii he continues, he will be able
to bring down the fares to - al least and at that
reduced rate all round, would make handsome pro-
fits All monopolies be easily broken up, If the
public are just TO themselves
