Tacoma, WASH, Jan. 5, 1910.
Editor Tacoma Times:
Dear Sir-Your fearless expos
ure of public nuisances such as R.
l.. Mccormick, the loan sharks
and others of the same class leads
me to believe that a few columns
of your valuable paper devoted to
the evils suffered by the public at
large at the hands of the abstract
title concerns would meet with
universal approval. At the pres
ent time in this city we are at the
mercy Of the Abstract Trust,
which, with petty grafters of at
torneys, is the only beneficiary of
our present system of transferring
landed property. Hoping the
time Is not far distant when it will
be possible to transfer a $50 city
lot without furnishing "pedi-
gree" costing $40 and as long as
the moral law, when the same
should be done by the aid of the
county officials at a cost Of not
more than So to the party max
ing the transfer and none to the
other party, where under the pres
ent system the purchaser in most
cases is at the mercy of some at
torney to the extent of IS or $40
for examination of abstracts
which usually take about that
number of minutes of said attor-
ney's valuable time; hoping you
may see fit to give this matter a
thorough consideration in your
valuable paper, I remain,
Sincerely yours,
j. P. COMSTOCK.

few years ago. when the Traction
company asked for a franchise, 1t
was to go into the hands of no
other corporation; it was to be in
dependent, and if 1t should go out
of their hands, the franchise was
to be. taken away. Wasn't the
same published in your paper at
the time? If you look back at
the Times you will see the same
IN your paper. Do you see the
point? 1t seems rather strange
to us how the 7. r. & P. company
can buy over the Tacoma Traction
lines. Yours respectfully,
TACOMA TAXPAYER.
The Tacoma times. [volume] (Tacoma, Wash.) 1903-1949, 1910-01-06
How It Happened.

At the time the franchise was
granted to the Pacific Traction
company the Times stated the fact
that the franchise could not be
transferred to any other company
without the consent of the city
council. This provision is in the
franchise yet. And the fran
chise has not been transferred to
any other company.
There was no provision in the
franchise which prohibited any
body from buying stock in the
Traction line. And the Stone
Webster interests have simply
bought the stock on the market
and thereby gained control of the
line, thus by indirect means doing
what the council tried to prevent
in the franchise. At the time
the franchise was granted the
stock had not been sold at all.
and the Traction company
probably never could have built
the line at all IL a provision had
been inserted to try to dictate to
whom stock might be sold, for
on the stock sales
would have prevented financing
the road.
The fact is the city has simply
been bumped again, as is usual
in dealing with public service cor
porations. 1t is these. experiences
that is driving the people to mu-
nicipal ownership as the only
way of getting relief from the
crooked ways of the public as
vice corporations.

him, saying, II will take all these
leaves for fans"

beam fairy, 81 don't want to be
