STREET CAR FRANCHISE.

The proposed new franchise Of
the Bluestone Traction Company
provides that the company shall be
re- uired to make similar improve
ments with the city between it's
tracks and for the space Of one foot
on each side Of said track that u.s..
If the city decides to pave the streets
on which the traction companys
tracks are laid. the space between
the rails and one foot on each side
rial at the expense of the company
But an exception is made i'm the case
of South Bland street. which re-
lieves the company from making any
improvements. The proposed fran
chise provides that:
The said Traction Company
shall not be required to make such
improvements on South Bland street
from its intersection with Bland
street anl Higsinbotham avenue or
upon the streets south of said street
over which IS run through south
Blueteld but said company i'm CON
sideration OF the payment hereinaft-
e. provided for is released from
making such improvements on said
South Bland street and other streets
in South Bmefeld for twenty-five
years from the oath day of April.
1906
why should the city make this
concession TO the traction company
The city of Blueheld is now less than
twenty-five years old Twenty-Five
years is long time. and If Bluefeld
continues to grow as she has in the
past few years there may he many
streets i'm South Bluefeld over which
the company might run its cars with
out making any improvements what
ever.
The Traction Company proposes
10 pay the city 100000 for this
franchise. when the city condemns
and pays for enough land to widen
Bland street to fifty feet It will
cost the city much more than 5000
to do this, and why should the city
give away this franchise which be
longs 10 the people for so much less
than ii will actually cost her. and
then relieve the company from paw
ing between its rails and one foot
on each side for twenty-five years.
N
on all other streets the company
in that time occupy in South Blue
field?
We are frank 10 say that we do
not believe the city council will ac-
quiesce TO any such proposition.

AFTER PECos VALLEY LINE.
Roswell Commercial Club Crusading
for Reduction in Freight Rates.

Roswell N. M, Oct. 1.-THE Pecos
valley believes that in spite of the re-
cent order of the interstate commerce
commission lowering freight rates into
this section that the Santa Fe railway
is getting around the proposition
through technicalities. Consequently
the Roswell Commercial club is going
to take UP the crusade again IN earnest
and see to it that the railway company
can not dodge the issue. Through
oversiohts on the part OF the men who
signed the petition to the commerce
commission and defects in the order is
sued the people have been up against
freight rates but little more reasonable
than of old. The people, however, are
considerably in earnest In the matter,
and are going to keep the matter SO
hot. that the company can not get out
through any technical loopholes. The
Roswell Record today says:
For several days the secretary of the
club has been preparing tables showing
that the rates are a great deal higher,
per mile, into Roswell than into Anna
rillo, and these tables Will be used in
securing the reductions. A peaceable
method will be adopted nrst. Trafhc
Manager d. L. Myers has been asked
to meet the clubs representatives here
this week and at this meeting an at
tempt will be made to get the reduc-
lions that are believed to be due. If
this attempt fails the club will bring
another suit before the interstate COM
merce a. commission. If this suit is
brought, every article shipped in and
out of the valley will be included.
The officers of the club who have
been doing this work are now thor
oughly advised as to railroad rates, and
are prepared to carry on their case
better thap they were the first time.
