A RINe.RIDDBN CITY.

They are having an Elevated Rail-
road experience in Brooklyn in which
they are certain to command the SYM
pathy of the people OF New York. who
know how It is themselves.
The Union Elevated Railroad Company
Of Brooklyn, was originally required to
a mile. The amount was fixed by the
courts as an equitable arrangement. fair
to the Company and Just to the city. after
hearing all the evidence that could be OBJ.
tained as to the value and profits OF the
roads. Before long the corporation pre-.
vailed on the assessors to overthrow the
decision OF the Courts and to reduce the
assessment from $4,000 to 100000 a
mile. thus shifting onto the shoulders OF
other taxpayers the tax on $4,000 a
mile OF which the railroad company was
| relieved.
II corporations grow fat on favors
they also grow hungry. The more privi.
leges they secure the more they cove,
and demand. Having successfully
| evaded $40 900 a mile OF It's Just assess
ment for taxation, the Union Elevatet
Railroad Company next asked a further
reduction from $500, 900 mile to $4,000
This Is $4,000 mile less than tn,
amount fixed upon by the courts onl,
two years ago as equitable and just ant
accepted by the CORPORATION as salts
factory. The excuse for the new demand
was that trolley road competition hat
caused a decrease in the Elevated roat
profits.
The new demand Of the tax dodger
was so audacious that Mayor Boody wa
impelled to denounce It as an outrag
and to advise the President OF the Boar,
OF Assessors against Its concession. Blu
this was three or four days ago and 4
the interim the ring has put In Its fin
work Thumb screws have been apple
to the Mayor, and arguments" supple
TO the Assessors. with the effect OF revo
lutionizing the situation. The Boar
yesterday agreed to the reduction tn
President having first announced III
Mayors change OF heart by assuring tn
Board that he was not opposed to sue
concession. and only desired the A.
SCISSORS to act on their own judgment.
The Union Elevated Railroad Comps
ny makes large profits and enjoys III
: eral privileges. 1t gives the public n
cGnyeniences that will add a dollar
its expenses. Like the Manhattan Con
: pany. 1t gives as little to the peop
: and gets as much out OF the people g
possible. Its tax-dodging is clea
steal. and the action OF the Board ,
, Assessors In the matter OF the reductio
, OF the assessment Is only another proc
of how hopelessly the unfortunate cit
of Brooklyn is held in the iron grasp ,
ring rule.

business himself.

which the several forecasts have been

public. everybody is surprised at the

The vexed question of the Sunday
opening of the Worlds Fair is not yet
finally settled. Proceedings are still
pending In the courts. and 1t Is now an
nounced that the Fair will be open to-
morrow and may be open on many Sun
days thereafter until decision is reach
ed In the Appellate Court. Chief JUS
tlce Fullers decision In favor Of Sunday
opening has been filed in Its full text,
and the Fair directors do not desire to
be held for contempt OF court by an
other violation of the Clingman injunc-
tion against closing the gates while the
action remains unsettled. These court
proceedings are getting tiresome. The
question Of Sunday opening ought to be
set at rest promptly, once and for all.

some time taught drawing in the Nor

girl with no soul for art can remember
her caustic and sarcastic criticisms of
