carrying thirty thousand volts or any
voltage he chooses. on Fifth avenue.
Massachusetts street, Fourth, Eighth
Nineteenth and Twenty-fifth avenues
Virginia. Ambridge Roosevelt streets,
etc. With the passage of this ordi-
nance the coveted power line is GER
tainty and the street railway part of
the franchise will be good gamble.
The streets named will need a street
railway sometime.
Are the people of Gary going TO
stand for that sort of thing? In order
to permit Geist TO build a dangerous
power line in Gary's principal streets,
are they willing to submit to a five
cent fare, nearly double the fare
charged by the Gary & Interurban?
Are they willing to give up all right
to per cent of the net earnings of
the street car system. which in fifty
years might yield the city hundreds of
thousands of dollars? Are they will
ing to expend $4,000 a mile more for
paving than the would have to under
the Gary & Interurban franchise? Are
they willing to put up with the troubls
and extra cost which will arise from the
presence of two street car systems
trying to serve the same people? Do
they want conditions all over the city,
similar to the unfortunate condition
south of the Little Calumet, where the
Gary & Interurban is prevented by
court proceedings temporarily. from
giving the street car service desired by
the people?
| The Geist franchise does not even
provide for the building of first class
street car system. Read section and
see what you think about It, 1t says:
"Said poles and supports shall he
placed an average of not LESS than
one hundred feet apart"
Cunning, isn't it? Geist is told
! virtually that not only may he build
where and when he pleases but that
he need not put up a substantial over
head system; he must not place his
poles less than 100 feet apart and he
may place them 500 feet apart if he
wants to- He epected to hoodwink the
Board of Public Works with that
clause. and he did. The iron poles on
Broadway cost the Gary & Interurbaa
Co. SILL apiece. in addition to the
cost of putting them in place and
equipping them. That clause will save
Mr.. Geist a great many thousand dol
lars, II ever he starts to build his rail-
road.

Crown Point, Ind, May lit has
been learned that through the efforts

prevailed upon the Erie railroad to
give them better service, that the erst-

give them a westbound passenger local

stalled about the 18th of this month.
according to report The action of the
Erie in granting this concession to
Crown Points easter neighbors only
goes TO show how much effort they
make to cater to the requests of local
citizens for better service, and some
concerted action should be taken to
induce the railroad commissioners to
extend the new train service as far

Through cunningly worded fran
chise agreement. which on the surface
seems to promise Gary an extensive
street railway system. but in reality
promises nothing at all except trouble.
Mayor Knots and his Board of Public
Works have been misled into agreeing
to one of the biggest franchise grabs
ever attempted. Fortunately for tho
city of Gary there is still time for the
city council to prevent this blunder,
which otherwise would cost the people.
during the life OF the franchise, many
millions of dollars to say nothing of in
convenience and trouble.
In the first place, the Calumet United
Railways Company, is a Philadelphia
man named Geist, who is in the power
business. not the railway business, and
is about to erect a power plant in East
Chicago for the manufacture and sale
of power. Naturally he would like 70
get into Gary with his power line He
could hardly hope to get permission to
string high voltage electric wires in
Gary's streets without resorting to de-
ception. Mayor Knots would not con-
slider for one minute a franchise openly
granting such rights. But if Geist can
dazzle the city officials and newspapers
| of Gary with the promise of an extern
| sive street railway, wording that
promise that he is not bound by any
thing, and then can slip in somewhere
| a clause giving the right for a power
| line. he will have a good thing.
This is exactly what has been done.
The franchise gives over to Geist
streets running from East Chicago to
Porter county. together with north and
south streets conveniently situated for
| a distribution of a power current to the
business section. The promised street
railway system is conditioned upon the
granting of franchises in Whiting. Easi
Chicago. Miller. Porter and Chesterton
That let's him out of immediate con-
struction. He can build where and
when he pleases. because he need not
complete his lines until three years af-
ter the granting of those franchises
which may be three years after never

up. This will be done at Crown Point
for the reason that it is more easy of
access.
After the issues have been made up
the cases will go to Valparaiso for
trial. The trial of the cases will be-
gin on the second Monday of the term
at Valparaiso, and this Will be some
time along in June.
The trial of these cases is expected
to furnish one of the biggest sensa-
