The Lewiston journal discussing the
transferable mileage question makes the
very good point that by adopting liber.
al policy and making their rates as low
as possible the steam roads will be doing
much to keep out tho electric roads. 1t
says:
1t is not out of place to say also, that
where steam railroads do oil that can be
done in the way OF liberal rates, frequent
trains and generous policy, the trolley
finds little or no encouragement and the
Q am railroad Is not thereby compelled to
do In competition, what 1t postponed too
long in doing of its own free will and ac
cord. For Instance, very liberal policy
In trains and fares east of Lewiston
would certainly postpone what now seems
To be brewing-an extension of the trolley
10 that direction and even though such
changes be made by steam railroads, at
an apparent loss for term of years, the
results would certainly prove in the end
The wisdom of the policy by the freedom
from competition and the lack OF any
adequate demand for the service of any
other transit.
This certainly is point that the rail
roads would do we'll TO ponder.
