Petition Concerning the Gridfron Bills.
To His Excellency EDWIN D. MORGAN, Governor of the
State of New York
The undersigned your fellow citizens Of the city Of New
York, most earnestly appeal to you to veto the bills
borizng the construction Of railroads in this city. We
believe that these bills originated in schemes for private
profit and that they have been carried through the Ls
ature by combinations Of political and moneyed interests
in reckless disregard Of the rights Of the citizens Of New
York. They bestow gratuitousy upon individuals repre-
sentng such political and interests unconditional
unlimited rights and franchises in the public streets
Of this city. These franchises are of immense
value. Responsible citizens have offered and are
lent. For the Seventh avenue grant alone they
offer to pay, in money, the sum Of million
thousand dollars carrying passengers at four CENTS
carry passengers at three cents thus giving the public
an immediate return for the franchise In the face Of these
offers and In the absence of necessity for monopoes
Of this character the Legislature by these bills attempts
to create special privileges for few favored grantees at
the expense of the people, who byhis means, would be
compelled to submit to the present high rates Of fare
whereas by general laws this subject Of general In
teres rights Of all could be secured and the
terests Of this city and State and your rness in the
course OF duty, We ask you to withhold your executive
sanction from the bills In question.
