TIE NEW IYTER URBfN.


No one will pretend that the establish
ment of third interurban line is not
an excellent thing for both cities, and
for all classes, of our citizens. Nor will
there be any dispute that the region
to be served by such line, both in St.
Paul and Minneapolis, will be greatly
benefited by the additional service.
The only point at which difference of
opinion may arise is that at which the
nature and extent of the additional priv
ilege conferred on the Interurban Rail-
Most residents of this city are familiar
with Merriam park sufficiently to know
that it is but a brief stretch along Mar
shall avenue-not to exceed a half-m1le-
to Marshall avenue bridge from the
point at which the Selby avenue car
track turns off and proceeds toward Uni
versity avenue. After the bridge is
crossed the line passes into Minneapolis
territory. From Marshall avenue along
Lake street to the business center Of
Minneapolis is a long sweep of city ter
ritory thickly populated, and offering
from the outset the promise of even
profitable local traffic.
Is the establishment of a new interur-
ban line through those districts to be
regarded by st. Paul people as a mere
extension of the present Selby avenue
line, and, as such, commendable in it
self? Or is it to be regarded as in opera
ton the calling into existence of a new
and valuable franchise, and involving
an additional privilege such as under the
city charter of st. Paul will necessitate
the payment of a 5 per cent gross earn
ings tax? Mr.. Griggs, the first assistant
city attorney, is quoted as declaring that
the establishment of the new interurban
system legally involves the payment Of
the additional tax.
The people of st. Paul know little and
care less about the relations suhsisting
between the street railway ownership
and the city of Minneapolis There pre-
walls, of course, the conviction that the
associated corporations engaged in the
street car business in that town own
the town. and that the management Of
the lines can secure anything it seeks
from the municipality, without money
and without price. What the rule of
conduct may be in Minneapolis does not
concern this community; and it is eX-
pected that our local officials will re-
gard the new interurban in a spirit Of
fairness to the city as well as to the
street car corporation. The law depart
ment of the city can probably be relied
on to safeguard the city's interests in
this behalf. Under no circumstances,
however, must the Lowry interests be
allowed to assume any further extension
of their existing privileges without CIV
ing that equivalent which the law and
good sense dictate.
