THE NEW TOLL RATES.
They Went Into Eject the River
~~ Bridges. Yesterday.

The new rates of toll on the bridges
went into effect yesterday morning, and
as a result of careful inquiry, there was
less friction and dissatisfaction than had
been expected Those Island citizens who
had made up their minds to continue to
patronize the bridges-and they were in
the large majority-procured their quar-
terry tickets on the first trip of the day,
listed the members of their families, pro-
cured their cards for them, and went
their several ways while those who for
one reason or another, determined to pat
ronize the yachts, at least for the present,
took themselves in that direction. The re-
suit was a decided boom in the yacht bus
mess. The new upper ferry appeared to
come in for the bulk of the new business,
and at the landing it was stated that an
average of fifteen or eighteen round trips
We're made, with average of eight pas
sengers to the trip. The Ohio street
yacht, however. also increased its bust
ness considerably, and a result there
was a diminuton of bridge traffic, with
an increase of receipts.
That there We're some kicks" goes
without saying, but they were confined,
for the most part to transient travellers
from tho city side of the river.
On the Back river bridges there was
a falling off in the number of female pas
sengers. particularly from Bridgeport,
while at the Aetnaville bridge there were
a number of objections from workmen
who live in Aetnaville. but work on this
side of the river. These men claim they
can neither afford to take out quarterly
books nor pay the rates for transient
travel.
The officers of both bridge companies
expressed themselves as well pleased with
the result Of the first days work under
the new system, and claim that matters
will gradually adjust themselves to the
satisfaction of all concerned. Time will
bring the true solution of the question
however.

THE GENERAL GOOD.

The general good is individual good,
and every American citizen should
comprehend this underlying principle
and conform his political action there' o
Our Declaration Of Independence
recognizes the principle in say
ing call men are created equal" and
that governments are organized not to
deprive people OF their equal rights and
opportunities, but to secure them. Gov
ernments thould aim to care for the
equal protection of all in their rights to
life, and liberty and happiness.
People are more and more coming to
the conclu lion that the good of the in
dividual is only secured and safe by the
good of all, that is, that the general
good is individual good. Hence it is
that bestowing franchises and chartered
privileges is not only wrong in principle
but injures the public individually and
collectively.
Public ownership is only cooperation,
and government, local, and state, and
general is cooperation. When Glasgow,
Leeds and Plymouth, in Great Britain
adopted public ownership of street
railways they bettered the service, by
cheapeniny fares and raising wages
Municipalities that use day labor instead
of letting out their work to be done by
contract get better work, and the work
ers usually get better wages.
The growing sentiment is toward pub
lie ownership. Why should not towns
own their water works, lighting and
other public arrangements? Our post
Office department is a notable and con.
spicuous example and great success.
And why should not this country, as do
many countries in Europe, own the tele'
graph lines tooH
In granting franchise, the people of
the city give to few the opportunity to
get rich of themselves. People should

mon wealth, and should act according.
ly, and take care of the commonwealth
and not give or fritter it away or let Off
cials sell out their commonwealth.
Governments generally, ours not ex-
cepted, have basely betrayed their trust
in monetary matters. In no way have
people been so universally robbed and
ruined ia modern times. Governments
have handed over currency affairs to in
dividuals instead of managing these
matters themselves. In this way have
the people been constantly sacrificed,
and all values, labor included, rendered
uncertain.
