MILEAGE HOLD UP
SCORED BY BROWN

Major Isaac B. Brown, in an inter
view concerning the Pennsylvania rail-
road mileage book, for which $50 is
charged. the additional $40 being held
as a guarantee that no one but the
purchaser can use it, says there are
features about the mileage book which
are annoying and appear to be in vio-
lation of the spirit of the constitution,
and the protests of the travelling public
and the Internal Affairs department
have been disregarded.
If the company's charter permits it
to make such demands then it's action
is legal; if, on the contrary, the ac-
cumulation of hundreds of thousands
Of dollars, as deposit from the pur-
chasers Of mileage books, is not auth
orized by law, then the company's ac-
tion is illegal. Major Brown cites the
constitution to show that mo corpora
tion shall engage in any business 9TH
er than that expressly authorized in
its charter. and no carrying company
shall directly or indirectly engage in
any other business. He holds that this
holding up of the $40 by the Pennsyl-
vania Railroad Company is dangerous
ly near the banking business, and prop
er regard for the depositors would
suggest the payment of interest on de-
posits.
"The fact isl concludes Major
Brown, "that the mileage book put on
the market some two or three years ago
was not the result of the best thought
in connection with the transportation
of passengers, but those who conceived
the idea are not willing to acknowl-
edge the wrong inflicted upon the pub
lie, as they would do by abandoning
the scheme. 1t should.however, be alb
,, andoned just the same"
"The Homeless 26, an organization
of travelling men, numbering thousands
in Pennsylvania, with Offices in Pitts
burg, has addressed letter to Govern
or Pennypacker calling attention to
the unjustness of the Pennsylvania
railroads demand for an extra ten
dollars before it will issue twenty
dollar mileage ticket, and asking
whether any reform legislation to pre-
vent this would be considered at the
coming extra session. The Governor
replied that the suggestion would be
carefully considered. Commercial Or
ganizations all over the country are
taking the matter up, and if nothing
is done at the coming extra session, the
subject will certainly get before the
| regular session in 1907

Some railroad talk has been re-
vived in this locality during the
past week by the announcement
from Manchester that the promoters
Of the interurban are flirting with
the county seat and now propose to
give Hopkinton the cold shoulder
and run the line from Monticello to
Manchester. The statement that
Hopkinton people are not interested
in the proposed road and have dis
copraged the enterprise is taken ex-
ception to and is uncalled for. Hop
kinton is out for all the railroads it
can get and will givea helping hand
whenever called upon to do so. In
the case of the interurban the council
agreed with the promoters to give
them right Of way through the cor
poration, which was all that SO far
has been asked OF US. The farmers
west and south Of town have already
signed contracts granting the right
to cross their property. -Itis under
stood that the promoters found some
trouble in getting free concessions
on the line between this place and
Dyersville, but so far the citizens of
neither town have been called on to
help solve the difficulty. Dyersville
expresses the same sentiments as
Hopkinton-a readiness to do all
that is possible to assist the promot-
ers in their enterprise, and both
towns object to the intimation tina.
they are 80 backward as to contend
against the march Of improvements.
An effort will be made to get in
touch with the promoters of the road
and find where the difficulty is
