The Philipsburg mail. [volume] (Philipsburg, Mont.) 1887-current, 1894-08-30

The plan of Hon. Abram S. Hewitt for
a rapid transit railway in New York city
will commend itself to municipal au-
thorities who want to know how to man
age valuable public franchises. Mr..
Hewitt proposes that New York shall
borrow the entire sum necessary to con-
struct the road, sinceit can do this cheap
or than any private corporation can on
account of the safeness Of the invest
ment. Then after securing the money
the city shall let the contract for con-
struction out to the lowest responsible
bidder. When the road is built, thep pri-
vate company constructing it shall have
also the right to operate it for 30 years.
They shall pay for rent to the city sum
based upon the cost Of building the road.
At the end Of the 80 years the franchise
returns to the city to be relet. The fea-
lures Mr.. Hewitt believes to be most
commendable in this plan are that no
grasping private company can ever Jug
gle the city out Of rent for one Of its
most valuable franchises; that the build
ing and operating of the road by pri-
vate company will take the direct man.
agement out of city politics as corrupt
ing element; that the city will in not
long time get all it's money back from the
rentals, and that it retains the right to
lease the road again for as long or short
a term as seems desirable.

our RECIPROCITY TREA TIES
Sir Julian Paunc-f ote say. the Results
Have Not Come Up TO Our Expectations.


Have Not Come Up 10 Our Expectations.
WASHINGTON. Jan. 19-sir Julian Paunceiote.
the British Ambassador at Washington. has
made a report to his Government upon the
effect OF the reciprocity treaties negotiated
under the terms OF the Mckinley Tariff act and
their relations to the foreign commerce OF tho
United States According to this interesting
report. the exports OF tho United States since
these treaties went into effect increased with
Germany. Austria. Hungary. Cuba. Brazil.
Porto Rico. and san Domingo. and decreased
with Salvador. Nicaragua Guatemala. Hon
duras. British West Indies. and British
Guinea. The total increase OF the value OF tho
exports OF the United States to reciprocity
countries was $40. az. G2l. approximately the
same increase which took place between tho
years 1879 and 1880 with the same countries
The increase in the value OF IMPORTS into the
United states from the reciprocity countries
has been ysTs large slnfs ne ga tEsass We're

Summing up tho result OF his observations on
the subject. Sir Julian Pauncefote says:
SO far the results have not come 20 to the
Clause Of the Mckinley act, and the United
States have not Teaped the advantages from
tho reciprocity policy which II was hoped they
would. Ii is true that the imports Of sugar
and coffee from Cuba. Porto Rico. and Brazil
have increased very largely and that the
American consumer has been baneiited there
by: but. on the other hand both the exports
and i'm ports with Nicaragua. Honduras Guate-
