CONNECTING RAILROAD SAYS NO.
Won't Build Its Line II the City Insists on
Regulating Freight Rates.

HeBulaunS Freight Hates.
President Samuel Rea Of the New York
Connecting Railroad. in a letter to the
committee OF the Board Of Estimate ap-
pointed to confer with the Rapid Transit
Commission upon the terms to be charged
for the Connecting Railroad franchise,
made it clear yesterday that his company
will not agree to the proposal to allow the
city to supervise the rates for the carrying
OF freight over the projected road.
1T would be impossible, Mr.. Rea stated,
'to raise the capital for this construction
il the entire value Of the enterprise was
subject to the hazard Of unlimited special
determination of rates by the Board Of
Estimate or any other local board, however
high its character and position"
In another part Of his letter Mr.. Rea
wrote:
The Pennsylvania and New Haven Railroad
companies are subject to the provisions OF
their own charters granted by other States
than New York and to the laws Of such States,
and they could enter into no stipulation sub
ordinatinG their corporate powers as 70 the
business between New York and those States.
Practically all the busin ess which the Penn
sylvania or New Haven road would bring
TO the Connecting Railroad would be inter
state busin ess. for it would be ira fic coming
~ e t'lh SNi' SNoNt6 VI jill "
other States. With respect to such inter-
state commerce. the Pennsylvania and New
Haven railroads are subject to such con-
stitutional enactments as the Tn tied States
Congress may make and TO the lawful juris-
diction Of the Interstate Commerce Com
mission.
regret. therefore. to be unable TO comply
with your request TO prepare a clause for in
sertion in the proposed certificate binding
the CnnnaNtiDC r ai1rna6 and its a1liad oopo-
panies as you suggest. ! repeat. however,
that if the other provisions of the proposed
certificate should be satisfactory there would
be no objection to a provision prohibiting
excessive rates upon the railroad Of the New
York Connecting Railroad Company and re-
curing that its rates should be reasonable.
The meaning of the letter is that should
the city insist upon inserting a rate regu-
lation clause in the franchise the company
will carry out its threat to withdraw its
application for permission to build the
road.

F.AVORS OWLS HEAD PARK.
Metz VIII Recommend Purchase by the City

Comptroller Metz said yesterday that he
had decided to recommend to the Board Of
Estimate the purchase Of the Bliss property
and other lands at Bay Ridge for the long
talked of Owls Head Park, A. W. Lane,
the executor Of the Bliss estate, has offered
to sell the uplands to the city for $780, 900
and the riparian rights for 81 900 900. The
land and twelve and a half acres OF water
covered land with the riparian rights. In
conjunction with the establishing Of the
park it is Mr.. Metz's idea to improve the
Shore road, and, should the traffic seem
to Justify, the running Of ferryboats be-
tween the Battery and Bay Ridge.

SURFACE DRAINAGE FOR rHe
STREETS.

GOOD streets would be an easy prob
lem In Lewiston If there was only good
surface drainage. The rainfall in the
valley is light, less than Is inches DER
year, and II the streets were properly
graded and provided with cutters TO
allow the water to pass OFF quickly II
seems hardly likely that such a sloppy
condition could prevail as is now mani
fest.
Now. the center of the streets seem
the lowest points. and the water stands
there till the light soil carried by the
passing wheels is stirred into it and the
whole sticky mass is spread like batter
from walk to walk
II the streets We're graded from the
center to the gutter, after the manner
Of modern roadway and the cutters
kept open. the problem of decent streets
Lewiston evening teller. [volume] (Lewiston, Idaho) 1903-1911, 1906-01-13
n Lewiston would be solved.

In Lewiston WOulu De SOlNeu
On the hill in the residence district
no attempt has been made to grade the
streets, and in the down -town business
district very little. 1t is rare thing
to see water running down the cutters
in any form Of surface drainage. A
compact well graded roadway would
not readily absorb moisture, but would
carry it to the cutters. where it would
drain into the rivers and not have to
remain till spring winds and the sum-
mer sun carried 1t off by evaporation.
The waste OF the present system OF
street work is very apparent and the
problem Of something better Is one OF
the crying needs Of the day. Surface
drainage will help some. 1t may not
be the whole solution, probably MOTH
ing short Of paving will be, but 1t will
at least be a start in the proper di-
rectiOn.

The white mantle covering the grain
fields in Idaho and the heavier snow
fall in the hills and mountains is as
surance that next season will at least
be normal in it's moisture supply and
season of great prosperity to all OF
Idahos varied Industries. Last season
was exceedingly dry. The mining in
dustries had a short season. the crops
were cut short and the streams are low.
The snow fall in the mountains last
winter was less than half the usual
supply, but present indications point to
an abundance during the coming sea-
industries of the state.

THE TELLER PRINTS THE NEWS.

The Teller wants to be the paper of
the people.
The people want the news and they
want all of the news. Several times
since our short life in Lewiston we
have been criticised. We have been
told that some thing are better left I'M
said. This we do not believe and we
never will act upon such a policy.
Our policy is that the actions of all
public officials are public. and the peo-
pie are entitled to know. We think
that public concerns have no business
in secret, and unless the Teller's news
staff can be deceived, and the news
withheld from them the people shall
always be kept informed upon acts Of
public import, no matter what attempts
may be made to keep them secret.
We do not wish to be misunderstood
in this regard. The impression should
not go out that the Teller is working
for any particular end. The impress
sion should not go out that the Teller
wishes to make war upon any concern
or any person. The Teller will fight,
but it fights only that it may get the
news and publish it.
In printing the news, the Teller has
and will attempt to keep away from
adding color to it.. 1t tries to print
things as it finds them. The people are
the judges. We are not. We recognise
neither friends nor foes in the printing
of the news. Our only foe is the one
who would try to conceal the news
from u.s. Our only friend is the one
who stands ready to assist us in our
quest for news
We must and will have the news
while 1t is news Many things that are
OF interest today lose their significance
by tomorrow Today's news today Is
our motto. In this and this alone are
we aggressive.

HARkINc BACK TO THE TARIFF

Congressman Williams speech yes
terday In the house debate and Champ
Clark's effusion Of few weeks since,
both indicate that the democrats are
barking back to the tariff for an issue.
Even Grover Cleveland should hail
this as something safe and sane. "The
tarirf Is tax. It Is a tax against the
of democratic warehouses for half
century before 1896, when Mr.. Bryan
discovered 1.-The crime of 1873" and
made it the paramount issue. Then
democracy went up and down the land
preaching the "robber tariff" But hav-
ing utterly failed In It's revolutionary
crusade against monetary sanity, the
democratic party Is turning back once
more to its old tariff position.
And the republicans are ready to
meet the ISSUE They believe In the
principles Of protection now as they
have believed in 1t during the last half
century. We are living under a repub-
lican protective tariff. Every decade
or SO during the half century the re :
publican party has revised the protec-
tive tariff, readjusting it's schedules
and rates according to changed condi-
lions of production of commerce, do
mestfc and foreign The time will,
soon be at hand for another protection
list readjustment of the tariff. We can.
not properly do 1t now, having amenda-
tory interstate commerce legislation
ana other important matters on hand
but the republican party is as ready
now as ever to meet the democracy ON
the old battle ground. for the econop,ic
conditions have not changed the want
age ground the republicans have held
on this great economic question for half
century
