Congress requires the railroads in the city
to sell tickets at six for quarter of

a citizen is at liberty to buy as many
tickets as he wants or to burn as much
gas as he pleases.
1.-THE telephone company refuses to con-
tract for. any number of telephone calls,
unless 1t be permitted to fix the minimum
number For instance, 1t will not serve
any citizen unless ne agrees to take and
pay for at least six hundred calls, even IL
he requires or uses only half that number,
and for every call over six hundred he must
pay an extra charge.
THE company determines the least num-
Der of calls it will permit, fixes the rate
for these and compels payment whether the
calls are used or not It also charges extra
for every additional call above the limit
fixed by itself, and then, by reason of its
influence in Congress, endeayors to preyent
any limit being fixed upon the rates to be
charged by 1t, and when the rates are fixed
