CITIES THAT DO THEIR OWN
BUSINESS.
One Of the chief troubles in getting
concessions for railroads and other
public works is that the towns like TO
do their own business. They want TO
operate the railroads, telephones and
electric lights themselves, and furnish
transportation and lights at the lowest
possible rates to their people.
The London county council made a
profit of about sS50,0OO last year of of
its tramwsys and gave the lowest rates
ever known. II Is estimated that the
different cities who handled such
things last year saved over $40, 000.0 600,
and that they haze reduced their tax
