Ollie James iIctOry.

We congratulate Congressman OIL
lie James on his victory for a three
cent street railway fare in the Dis
trict of Columbia. The Republi-
cans House of Representatives stood
for hi amendment 20 the termiRal
steet ear bill, which was carried by
vote of l59 to SO. As the Repub-
lican majority in the House is liz,
the James measure received a heavy
Republican support. That able and
resourceful Republican, Mr. Hep
burn, Of Iowa, took strong ground
in favor of the James amendment.
We believe in justice TO all rail-
roads aud other corporations, but a
three cent rate in a city like Wash
ington Is ample for all ends, 1t
pays all investments, provides for
dividends, reserve funds and i'm
proyements. The Federal govern
ment should do all in its power to
make Washington desirable place
to live in. The national metropolis
is a place of magnificent distances.
The street ear comes into the daily
needs of nearly all its inhabitants.
The fare should be placed within
reach of all. Visitors in thousands
flock from all directions to Washing
ton. No man can VISIT the National
capital without coming away a bet
ter American. Desirable is it,
therefore, that the city Of Washing
ton should be made an inviting
place for visitors. The three-cent
car fare will help to that end.
But the James amendment will
have far-reaching effect on the
country at large. 1t will show street
railway corporations that the more
they seek to serve the public, the
closer they get to the public heart,
