an auditor to supervise the receipts.
This Is to be the kind of offer made
because majority OF the aldermen
are anxious to retain the present one
way fares at five cents and because
the company has insisted that such an
arrangement makes the Belle Isle SER
vice a losing one.
ITO maintain good faith between
the company and the city. the alder
men should have a year in which TO
study the question and have exact
facts to go upon before max

member of the committee. Such
an arrangement as this, which
is proposed would make the city a
partner OF the ferry company to the
extent of desiring to prevent the SER
Vice being conducted at loss and
would thus insure fair treatment. The
city can legally do this, we are in

made to test the fairness of the ferry
