A Fair Way to Settle the Railroad
Question.

1t is asserted by those who favor the rail
road ordinance that the ordinance is the only
means by which the road can enter the town
This is untrue. The law-Code, Art. 23, sec
l69-provides that II the railroad company
and the municipal authorities cannot agree
upon the terms and conditions upon which
the streets may be used and occupied, then the
company may proceed to condemn right OF
way over the street in the same manner in
which the property of individuals may be
condemned
This law offers fair and equitable solutio
OF the difficulty now presented. Very few
persons are opposed to the railroad per o. :;
but large number of our most substan tial
citizens object to the terms of the ordinance,
believing, as they do, that II gives unfair ad :
vantages to the company and subjects the
town TO risks which ought not to be run
BY coming ia under the general law, the
company will be subjected to the same re-
sponsibilitits here as in other parts Of its
road, and there is no reason why it should
not be. There is every reason why II should
not have greater privileges in Rockville than
elsewhere There is every reason why II should
pay for its right TO use the public streets
which have cost the people large sums Il
money, just as II pays for the use Of private
property.
The general law makes ample and just pro-
vision for the protection of the rights and in-
terests OF all parties. If the railroad com
pany had been sincere in its desire to run
through the town, 1t could have done 80 last
FALL before the thrty-feet law was passed,
by the exercise of the right OF conde nnation,
BY its failure 10 do so, II has forfeited the
confidence of thoughtful people and made
them cautious in their dealings with IL. This
ordinance should be defeated aud the COM
pany shhould be driven to deal with the
people of Rockville as ii has dealt with the
people along the rest OF its route,

Electric Railroad Trickery.

Mr. Ed.t0r Much has been said in re-
gard TO the unusual and unjust rights, pow
ers and immunities conferred upon THE
Washington and Rockville railroad by the
ordinance which the people Of Rockville
are 10 vote upon on the 18th instant.
IL is now being claimed by some Of the
advocates Of the ordinance that while II may
not have been drawn rs prudentlY rs might
have been done, still the railroad would
have the welfare Of the public in view, and
would not exercise III vast powers under
this ordinance against the interests Of IT,
patrons The past conduct Of corporation
Is a good index TO its future actions.
IL has been shown how this company, IN
It's cnndemnatloE proceedings, used the
promise OF Il round trip fare from Rockville
TO Washington Tor % cents 10 acquire prop
erty for lis right Oi way NJ "A low price, aud
how, Immediately upon the completion Of
the road, 1t fixed the price at dhnble that
amount Can such conduct be considered
fair or hODestY
The representatives Of this road made n
solemn pf9mise 10 the Mayor and members
of the Council that It would pave jefferson
street, so rs 10 provide n way over which the
public could travel IN place OF the main
street, which il was To occupy, and after.
wards repudiated this obligation.
This company flied a plat with the town
council last fall showing its alleged inten
ton Of going through the entire length OF
the town, but there was a clause In the orig
inal ordinance which provided for forfeit
IRE of its rights 10 such portion Of this plat
ted line ~ was not completed within stated
period. Subsequently this clause Of the or
dDance was 80 modified a. 10 work for
Ieitnre Of the entire line within the town II
| il should not be constructed through 10 the
WoOdawn hotel 10 stated time. This the
railroad company would not accept, and
when its scheme was uncovered its repre-
sentatives boldly threw of the mask and
announced that 1t never intended 10 ~
through tho town, and never did want "
20 any further than tbs court house this
announcement be- true was not the 4 ing o
said map a piece Of deception and Lrickery
through which the road hoped " get 10 the
court house at little expense by iQJling Tho
people into the belief that they were getting
A road through the entire town.
This railroad DOT qnly made no Ell ut Il

venting 1t from going upon streets less THAT
