Reducing Fares.

The reduction OF the stage fares from
ten TO five cents is concession to the
popular demand for cheap travel, btt
does not render Broadway railroad
any the less desirable. lfit should large
ly increase the travel on Broadway u
would, indet d, only make 's street rMi-
road and more necessary, as an addiuou
to the present number OF stages w9ulu
produce more frequent blockades. REQ
ple now insist upon travelling comioi'-
ably and rapidly as well as at reasonape
rates, and there is scarcely property
owner on Broadway, between Union
square and the Battery, to be founu 10
day adverse to a Broadway railroad,
while few years ago it was rare TO hhi
one in favor of such road. II has oeeh
suggested that inasmuch as the street
cleaning authorities always keep Broad
way clear, however much they neglect
other thoroughfares, We should DC sure
in the winter of at least one unoosiruc' ,
ed line of cars if the Broadway railroad
should be constructed, While the railroad
company would assist the city authori'
ties In the work of removing the snow
promptly. The stage companies nave
however, acted wisely in reducing Their
fares, and it would be well for the ele-
waited railroad corporations 10 follow the
example.-N. Y. Herald.
