The Connecticut legislature is considering
the question of regulating the fares of rail
roads by law. The Hartford and New Haven
road pays eighteen per cent. dividend on the
amount actually paid in and charges six cents
mile for local and three ami quarter fol
through passengers, Another charges eight
ana half for local and four and quarter for
through passengers, and paws sixteen per
cent. dividends.
The House has twice voted aoa;rs+ Al =
measure and the Senate will consider it as an
amendment to the consolidation bill.
Unless we proceed on the principle that
the people and their legislature are created
for the railroads and not the railroads
for them, 1t will be difficult to determine
what subject demands more decided legisla-
tive action than those extortionate cases in
connecticut and in other States. There are
other legislatures that might well demand OF
Ineir railroads that they so arrange their tar
Ills DIS not 10 offer as an inducement TO leave
the State for business or otbor,,;so h. e.
ing premium by way of railroad fare
Inc strongest argument made in tho ror
necticut legislature was statement w..
Illinois railroads pay no attention to tho an.
of the legislature of that State fixing 49,
maximum rates of fare. If this is really the
case, the sooner the question of supremacy
between the people and railroads is fully de-
termined the better.
