 for nothing from the city. It's advo- cates proclaim that the company will l add to its facilities as soon as it is put | in a position to do so without any ex- pense to itself. Tn other words, if the i city will give the company an oppor- | tunity to increase its. revenue it will | hut ,I1o11 fr oIyo a move in that direction before it has exhausted every effort to have it's own | way. The trolley people are taking the same ground as the storekeeper who felt that his place was not big enough | to accommodate his patrons and want | ed the landlord to give him more space at the old rent.
