Is The city is In furore oyer the pres
ent situation. All newspapers are op-
posing the Pingrees plan, sand it is
claimed that the majority Of citizens
oppose it on the ground that 3-cent
fares and quasi municipal ownership
will fail to pay the expenses and the
SIT OOo, GOO proposed to Be paid for the
roads and that they will, if purchased,
revert to the present owners sf ;
In the latter event, the roads would
be operated under the security ordi-
nance already passed by the Council,
which permits operation Of all the eroads
at six for quarter. fares for from
thirty to thirty-eight years. The Pin
gree people claim that the roads will
certainly pay off their purchase price
under 3-cent fares. ~
Governor Pingree had circulars dis
tributed on the streets, giving his side
of the controversy.
A special meeting of the CITY Coun-
Gil was called for this afternoon, and
working ordinance is expected to
be passed, granting the municipal COM
pany rights as to operation of the roads
This ordinance reserves to the city the
right at any time to fix the rates of
fare, said rate meanwhile to pe three
cents with universal transfers

nances, and the question Is whether
