The Baltimore and Ohio is still on deck
and more saucy than ever when it CONES
to talking out III meeting for the interests
of the travelling public, as against the
exactioDs of some other and would. be
rival lines. It's latest shot into the camp
Of the high.priced and fancy fxings lines
is q hot one, and already there is squirm-
ing and twisting to get away from the
Inevitable. But there is DO use of kick
Ing against the prodding, and the average
man now a-days knows thing or two
which all the canningly constructed ad-
vertisements of those who want the whole
earth, and then not get enough, cannot
bind him to the actual state of affairs
TO pay eight or ten dollars extra for the
SIMPLE riding on a road that assumes all
there Is In Lie worth having is all bosh,
aud no longer will the dividends of rail
road company aud subsidiary corpora
tioDs alike swell at the expense of al
over confdiug public. The b. and O.
has itself gone into the 'limited" express
| train business, and, as is ever the rule
with everything done by the solid old
corporation, the people profit, and would
berivall lines vince. On all the ''limited'
trains of other routes sum is exacted
largely in excess of the regular ticket rate,
and the passenger, whether it be his
| choice or not, has to pay another extra
III the shape of sleeping caE fare. Ii he
declines to accept the conditions so arbi-
trarily e1acted, he has perforce to go on
q slow train, as, according to the latest
principles OF these autocratic companies,
fast time is only for the wealthy. On the
Is. and q. the best is ever deemed the
honest due of all, and the great American
maxim that every man is his own master
to follow his own sweet will has ever
been the all governing rule of its half
century and more of existence. In other
words, there are no extra charges of any
character whatsoever On the Il. and O.. ,
and, fgaratively speaking, if a man
don't want hash, he don't have to take it..
IL he desires sleeper, parior car, there
it is, ana the rate for accommodations Ia
only the regular standard figure, not
doubled up, as on other lines, IN the IN
terest of an already all powerful and rich
Steering car combination.
