c0UNCILMEN ARE SAD.
Have Discovered Umbrella Line"
Franchise Runs to July 10, 1910.

City councilmen who have been looking
into the affairs OF the West Side Rapid
Transit company. commonly known as the
Umbrella line for the reason that a
party of city councilmen who went over
the road were compelled 10 hoist their
umbrellas inside the one car owned by
the road to keep the rain off. have been
disai pointed TO find that the company ;
charter does not expire until July l. 1910.
The company has not been paying the
city any revenue. as was stipulated in
its franchise. which provided that L25
mills should be handed in for each fare
received. This the city now proposes to
collect.
The council has had several skirmishes
with this company. Citizens along the
route have asked that it be compelled to
give better service. but nothing developed
from it. The company operates one car,
with sometimes two men in charge of il.
but usually only one. who acts both as
motorman and conductor. 1t is said TO be
earning profits of $3.50 yearly
A resolution was introduced in the coun-
ell ct the last meeting providing that cars
shall not run without two men in charge
but as il was supposed that the charter
expired this year il went over. Il will
be taken up again now that the council
men have discovered that there is an
other year to run

RISES EARLY TO COUNT CARS
License Collector Says Utah Light &
Railway Company Don't Pay
Enough to the City.

The Utah Light & Railway company
did not settle with the city last year the
question of the licenses it shall pay, and
the license department is now expecting
more trouble. The company has been
having licenses on sixty-five cars. but
License Collector Sam I. Goldman, be-
lieving the city was being bilked. sat Up
all night to watch the cars go out In the
morning with the result that he counted
seventy-five and. at that, thinks he
missed a few.
some of the eouneilmen took the matter
up at Godman's suggestion and the re-
suit of their observations is a belief that
the company is running at least 100 regu-
lar cars on its lines. The company only
paid into the city Golfers approximately
81 900 last year. whereas the license col
1ector SAYS it should pay much more.
The suggestion Is now made that the
company be put on the same basis as the
telephone companies. which pay oyer one

city council. and an attempt will be made
to induce the company to agree to q set
