The situation which Richmond presents

A couple Of weeks ago The Times stated
authoritativoly that the Electric Railway
Company would put down track ana
make a double line by Main street ana
Broad street 10 the Exposition Grounds'
and have the roads completed and equip
ped before the Exposition was held ln
October. We reasonably supposed that
the street Committee. al its next meet

would require some one of the other
competing companies To do as much at
once. or grant the necessary facilities 10
the Electric Company The committee
did neither. but postponed an action. ana
lost the valuable time that has since IN
iervened.
The subject is TO bee again considered 10y
the committee on August 1i-n. There is
yet time. II expedition is used. to have
the road constructed and equipped ana
the Electric Company agrees TO do II
Yet. II facilities are granted at once. In
the name OF every public interest We do
1t sist that the committee shall at that
meeting either require one of the other
competing concerns 20 90 as we'll as the
Electric Railway proposes. and give see
curity that IL will be done at once. or
that IT shall grant the necessary faciii-
ties 10 the Electric railway. We shall
hammer at this thing from this time on.
