$4,000. OF course this is an
under estimate, but it gives an APP
proximate idea. If the company
means to say that for the removal
Of a $500 tax it viii voluntarily
relinquish over S25, 600 per annum

1t is becoming astonishingly liberal
and conservative all at once. Sup
pose the three big stockholders who
neglect to draw their salaries agree
to reduce fares to five cents at
once-eyerybody would be pleased,
everybody would ride even when
going only a short distance they
would not lose anything in the end,
and perhaps the city council would
consider a petition to reduce this
enormous tax of $500 or $4,000 a
year. If it is really unjust and OPP

Gend the company against extortion.
