Pittsburg dispatch. [volume] (Pittsburg [Pa.]) 1880-1923, 1891-02-04
An IRRELEVANT PLEA.

The railroad freight agents who object to
the application of the iron manufacturers of
the Mahoning and Shenango Valleys, for
reduced freight rates. because if it is
granted similar reduction must be made
or Pittsburg traffic leave remarkable
hiatus In their logic. Until that gap is
closed their argument is an extremely weak
one.
Why should they not make the reduction
on both the Pittsburg and valley shipments?
They know very we'll that the iron interests
of those two sections furnish them with
more freight than any other interests in the
country. They ought to know that this
traffic now bears larger rate per ton per
mile than any other traffic of like class and
equal volume. The backbone of the pros
periIy of the railways serving this section
is furnished by the iron industry; and if
that is weakened the profits OF the railways
will sooner or later be discovered to rest on
an insecure foundation.
The railways have enjoyed long period
of extremely rumunerative business fur
nished by Pittsburg and the valley mills
and furnaces. The mere principle of en-
Iightened selfshness should teach them that
any concessions necessary to keep the iron
trade on steady basis is for their own in
terest.

TOO LARGE AND TOO COSTLY.

The Board of Awards has recommended
four sites to Councils for poor farm pur-
poses, leaving the City Fathers to make a
selection. We think the public will be
best satisfied if all four are refused. They
are farms running from 200 acres and over,
and the prices put upon them range from
about $3.50 to 5000 per acre. For what the
city needs, the tracts are unnecessarily
large and the prices for the most part too
high. A farm of from so to 100 acres would
answer all the purposes. The point is well
raised that it is only for market gardening,
not for ordinary farming, 5000 per acre land
can be titled with profit. As for general
farm work it cannot be proftably rendered
by the inmates of the institution, else they
would have no need of the assistance of the
city. A small, compact place, we'll situated,
is more in line with the city's actual needs
than an expensive rancho.
