Three-Cent Fares.

Mention has been made In our news
columns of the determination to make a
three cent fare In the city Of Cleveland,
o; The plan is new and the operation
of it will be watched with interest IN
all cities. The Johnson franchise pro"
vides for a three-cent fare zone, Whlcn
includes tho greater part OF the city
the lines in some cases being co-eS'st-
Ont with the city boundaries, and N no
case more than halt q mile within the
corporate limits. Outside OF this three
cent "sphcre of influence" the company
may collect five cents from each pas
senger. Transfers within the city linz
it's will be given on payment OF I'VE
| cent fare. Suburban passengers may OBJ
! tain transfers on payment OF seven-
cent fare. The directors OF the COM
pany have not yet accented the plan;
but they arc willing to give 1t trial
for ninety days to determine whether the
company can afford to accept It,
This system Is old in Europe. but. SO
| far as we know, 1t has never before
been tried In the United States. The
principle is right, and 1t ought to be
adopted, certainly IN tho large cities.
On the steam roads we pay so much a
mile, according 10 the distance Travelled.
but on the electric roads in the cities
we pay the same fare whether we ride
one block or over the entire length OF
tho road,
IT seems to US that there ought to be
a maximum and minimum rate, and tina,
the person who resides the shorter dis
lance should get the benefit Of the low
er rate. A man who lives only ten squares
from his place OF business should no
be made TO pay as much Tor his rld'
as the man who lives two or three mile
away.
