FRISCO INrHR.URBAN TRAINS.

The people of Joplin and all other
towns reached by the Southwest
Missouri Electric Railway Com
pany have for several months been
enjoying the privilege of riding
over the electric or Frisco inter.ur.
ben trains for almost nothing. This
was nice thing for the public. but
Il was hard on the railways. This
ruinous competition is 10 be done
away with and our people want
more cheap rides they Mill need to
get them soon or the opportunity
will be lost.
Yesterday the Globe learned on
what it considers thoroughly relia.
BILE authority that the Frico would
soon take off all of it's inter. urban
trains except two each day and that
the old rates that were in effect be-
fore the cut was made 10 the pres.
ent low rate. would be restored.
This rate was pc for the round trip
over the Frisco TO Galena, and 45c
for the round trip to Carthage. just
when the trains will be taken off
could not be learned, but that they
will come off il CERTAIN unless some
thing occurs to cause the Frisco Of
ficials to change their minds.
When the Frisco takes off It's in.
trr-urhan trains, with the exception
of two each way per day. aud re-
stores its old rates, the electric will
in all probability restore iis old
rates and try aud &c, a little more
than cost out of the business il
does. 1t is evident that the day OF )
and 10 cent fares to all points on the
electric touched by the Frisco are
roseate past.-Joplin Globe.
