one overwhelming fact that the yer

the Cairo g. Thebes Co. upon certai
explicit promises Of performance o
the part Of the company; That one n
the most important Of these-WITH
OUT WHICH THOSE FRANCHISES
WOULD NEVER HAVE Been

NHAT THIS VERY IMPORTANT

impra ticable or impossible: it viii

great good to the city from presen}
conditions, in fulfiIlment OF the prom

will not do to permit threats of harm
to the city to swenve aldermen fro,i
course which is dictated by a
propes regard for the peoples rights
II is to be expected, as a matter o
course, that the gentlemen who vii
appear before the city council Tues
day night, to protest against the re

try to make 1t apepar that the pro l

rival railroads In Cairo which woalc Il
like t. see that railroad barred out |
and that these are behind the pro

they will resort to the fayo4te andI
generally the most effective weapon
railroad company has In suct
cases: threat of harm to the cit,
by Withdrawing from it entirely un
der pretense Of having been driver
out. and thus preventing the carryinfl

has In mind.
This kind OF talk Ought to has
little pr no weight with aldermen
