There is no excuse for the profit
gate, wholesale granting of street
railroad franchises by the Callaghan
administration. In the first place,
the narrow streets concentrating in
the business center, should have been
reserved from such franchises; and IN
the next place, the granting Of such
franchises over our narrow streets
amounts to q monopoly, as one line
excludes all others, and these fran
chises are the most valuable part of
the property of these railroads.
