Cheap street Car Fares.

The city engineer of Toronto puts out a
very interesting statement Of the result ofthe
street car experiment which has been conduct
ed in that city now for four years.
Four years ago the city bought all the lines
within the city limits for 81 Asa, ,7ss, and prac-
tically sold out to the present owners after
operating the system for few months, The
company received a twenty year franchise, to
be extended to thirty years If authority for
the step could be secured.
Under the terms Of this franchise the com.
pany pays TO the city annually $500 per mile
OF single track operated and percentage OF
the gross annual receipts, ranging from 8 10
20 per cent according to the total amount OF
these receipts. The franchise also contains
an unusual number Of restrictive clauses.
II prohibits the operation of the lines on Sun
days until popular vote has been given iav-
orable 10 lis course, and II restricts the hours
Of labor to ten, Free transfers are given tc

The New Illuminating Gas.

II looks very much as if the Canton City
Council had made big mistake in the five
years gas contract recently entered into. The
manufacturers Of acetylene gas are making a
big drive in Washington among other places
We reproduce some of the items in the com.
pany's advertisement and call attention to the
information contained in the last paragraphs
1t is the most brilliant and beautiful light
ever discovered. 1t gives fifteen times the
light of Washington gas per cubic foot.
It's pure, white light, its rays being al
most identical with sunlight, showing all
Colors perfectly.
Its combustion is perfect, There are no
noXiOus products, no odor and no smoke. The
vitiatiOn of the air in a room compared
with ordinary gas is as / to 0.
1t produces a distinctively cool flame. The
same amount Of light has only One.sixth the
heat of city gas at less than one.sixth the
cost.
Every householder in the city or country
can attach cylinder of liquefed gas TO his
house pipes, change his large burners to half.
foot or one foot burners and at once secure
perfect light. No special knowledge or skilled
labor is required and there is no danger.
1t is specially adapted to light houses, buoys,
ships, street and railway cars, locomotives,
bicycles, street lamps, and has a thousand
other uses, not only for lighting but also for
heat and power.
Simplicity, safety, efficiency and low cost
are guaranteed. Every fact above cited can
be substantiated to the entire satisfaction of
every unbiased mind,
The above will explain
Why the Chicago gas trust, after sever i
months of practical tests of acetylene pur-
chased the exclusive right to manufacture, use
and vend calcium carbide and acetylene in the
city of Chicago.
Why the Equitable Gas company of New
York, has purchased the same right mot ex-
clusively) in new York city.
Why the gas interests of Buffalo, Utica
Albany and other cities have secured similar
rights for these localities.
Why the rights of Pennsylvania, Delaware
Maryland, Ohio, Massachusetts, Connecticut
Rhode Island Illinois, Michigan, Wisconsin,
Minnesota Missouri, California, and other
states have been acquired by capitalists after
careful investigation.
Why, in the city of Washington, shrewd
and conservative investors have taken large
amount of stock of the company organized
here, with the certainty Of realizing large
profits.
The Washington price is to be IS cents per
thousand cubic feet.
All that is necessary for a householder to do
is to buy small can of the liquid gas, attach
it to the house pipes, disConnect the city mains,
put in small tips(One-half foot tips against the
four to six foot tips now used), and turn on
the gas A can of the liquid lasts an ordinary
household several months,

six tickets, good any time during the day, are
sold for the same sum, There are also school
tickets at ten for twenty five cents, which are
good between a. m. and 5 p. m.
Ofcourse Torontoi is not small city. The
street car traffic there is heavy. But there
are great many cities in the United States
where the traffic is equally as heavy; and
there is no such showing. But that American
cities are waking up is seen in the fact that
even trolley ridden Philadelphia through a
federation of its best citizens, have attacked
the trolley combine there in way that means
a marked reduction in the charge for fares
and an equally marked increase in the
accommodation furnished. The city attorney
has just decided that the city has retained the
right to regulate the fare and the federation
proposes to see that 1t is done.
The American people are evidently on the
edge Of new and greater things in street car
management The people are beginning to see
that street car companies are occupying and
getting rich from rights that belong TO them
Such being the case better accommodations
and cheaper fares are demanded-or the city
operate the lines in the interest of the people

The English Tax on the Vanderbilt
Marlborough Millions.

The Philadelphia Press raises an inter %
esting point when it says anent the Van
derbilt- Marlborough wedding, that as
these millions, earned in this country, will
also pay an English income tax Of 3Ia
per cent. to the the English treasury. the
gain to the English taxpayers will be
considerable They will collect 9 10 per
cent, on the income Of So 600, 900, all in
vested in this country, while the presum-
ably happy pair lives, and rer cent. on

heirs With enough international mar
riages Of sufficient magnitude, the Eng
lish excheQuer would shift considerable of
taxation onto the American wage-earner.
In time, II these absentee fortunes in.
crease, tax upon them in the country
which furnishes their income must come
to be seriously considered
Some of the states already have an in
heritance tax, others are seriously consid-
ering it, and those that have ii are think
ing Of enlarging 1t, so that before great
while it will be reasonable to expect that
every state in this country will have a
tax on inheritance, and probably on for
tunes that run up into the millions. The
national government cannot take any
cognizaDce of such q subject for the rea-
son that the national constitution pro-
hibits any direct tax of 5his kind, where
as, in England the subject distinctly
comes within the purveiw of Parliament.

PopuIistic Logic.

The Coming Nation, pOpulistic paper
published down in Tennessee, issued
14O, 600 copies of what is called The Lib.
erty Edition" to celebrate the release of
Debs in Chicago. One Of its articles is
on the subject Of The New Slavery. "
To show American workmen how their
liberties are stolen and their children
made slaves as well as to convince these
middlemen of our country the danger we
are in from the tyranny Of capitalists, the
paper prints a contract between the Illi-
nOis Steel Co., of Milwaukee, and the
parents Of a child who sought employ
ment in that concern. BY the terms of
the contract the parents of the child re-
leases the Steel Company from all dam
ages that may accrue to them under the
law for injuries which the child may suf-
fer while in the employ of the Steel Com
pany. In Its comments on this contract
the Coming Nation says: Imagine this
damnable corporation standing over your
fellow men with the flnality OF capitalists
industry-Sign or Starve-and try to
realize what il means"
1t simply means that the so-oalled con.
tract which the Coming Nation quotes
would probably be declared invalid by the
courts, and it also means that the state of
Wisconsin, If it has not already done so,
should speedily enact laws that would
make such contracts impossible, just as
it enacts laws which protect society from
other injuries at the hands of individ-
uals. There is no fire for revolution to
be found in this mares nest.

Vatican buttons, all roses and briers,
are one of the favorite styles.
White, pearl and cream tinted glace
gloves are still the correct thing for
evening wear except when the long
gloves are needed, and then they are
suede
AS usual at this season of the year
felt hats prevail, and the French felt
models this season are as soft and fine
as velvet. These are fashioned in every
possible way.
The popularity of self colored cloth
dresses remains unimpaired, and it is
no wonder, since the material lends it
self to most kinds Of trimming and is
always in excellent taste.
Buttons either very small or very
large are distinct feature of trimming
on the latest gowns, and Persian lamb
reVers fastened down by glittering paste
buttons make "a gown look very smart.
A new way of making an effective
garniture for bonnet or hat is to place
a handsome shaded velvet flower in the
center of a soft loose rosette made Of
chiffon in corresponding or contrasting
colors.
Winter jacketings are shown in hand
some colors Of moss green, plum color,
Of a rich crimson shade or in blush
dyes, silver blue, deep Neapolitan blue,
peacock blue, Russian green, friars'
gray and many beautiful shades Of
brown.
Turquoise blue and the new geranium
pink are the light colors most used for
collar bands, belts and touches of color
on light gowns, with lace waists, and
on evening hats, which are larger than
they were last year and do not spread

leaves nothing to be desired.
Philadelphia Times: All citizens Of
every political faith and every student in
our schools should carefully read and
study President Cloveland's plain,
straightforward, honest and earnest pre-
