Horace Walton, at recess. climbed
to the top of the highest nut tree, and
losing his hold, fell to the ground.
He struck on many of the limbs in
his descent The boys were terribly
frightened as he struck the ground.
Just as we crowded about him TO see
il he still lived, cur faces as white as
his, the bell ;ang for the resumption
OF studies.
The last boy in was Walton. and
just as he fell rather than sat down
in his seat the master shouted: Come
out here instanter," He gave him a
logging that made the fall from the
tree seem the lesser OF two evils.
A few years ago, meeting Walton
for the first time In many years, he
remarked that he well remembered

TOM L. JOHNSONS FIGHT
FOR THREE-CENT FARES

which it's large stockholders and d.
rectors have in other street railways,
heavily handicap the scheme.
Mr.. Johnson had planned the only
logical arrangement, which was a
holding company pledged In all man
ner OF ways TO the success OF low
fares. That plan was indeed put into
operation In 1908, but was ultimately
rejected by a one-per-cent majority on
referendum vote. The immediate
causes OF that vote were strike and
some mistakes of tact and 1udg-
ment. quickly taken advantage
OF by embittered vested interests.
The cause back of 1t all, how
ever, and understood by very few
at the time, was a catastrophe as
tragic as the physical ailment which
precipitated Napoleon's defeat al
Waterloo. This was the development
OF the insidious disease which. In con-
nection with financial and other mis-
fortunes that overlook the mayor In
1908, deprived the city or some OF the
wonderful tact and clearness OF vision
for which he had always been justly
famous. Even many OF his closest
friends and he himself, as he after.
ward told the writer. did not appre.
ciate until too late what had happens
ed. The mayor regained his old-time
poise and attitude OF mind, but II came
too late to control the elections OF
1908 and 1909.
Even today, however, when the
Cleveland Railway Company is asking
the city council for some modification
OF its franchise. II is not proposing
higher rate OF fare than is now
charged. From Tom l.. Johnson's
Achievements as Mayor Of Cleveland,
by Edward w. Bemis, In the Ameri-
can Review OF Reviews.
The Detroit times., 1911-05-02

Mr.. Johnson's achievements In his
nine years OF fierce street-railway
struggle have never been known out
side OF Cleveland. That mis- successes
far unbalanced his defeats Is becom-
ing more evident with every passing
month OF continuance OF universal
three-cent fares throughout the city.
He forced the company TO wiring
most of the water out OF Its stock,
and 10 limit its returns TO per cent
on the rest, which is a better settle
ment than Massachusetts cities have
secured after forty years OF state reg
ulation.
For over-a year the fare within the
city has been only cents, with cent
for transfers, while the average fare,
including a scent fare in some OF the
suburbs. has been less than 4-lO
cents per passenger, or 3-lO cents
including transfers,
The mayor was right In holding that
pay-enter cars and low fares would
greatly stimulate revenues and traffic.
The average increase OF business dur
ing the sixteen years ending with 1909
was per cent yearly compounded,
but under the reduced fares since Feb
ruary, 1910, the increase has been
over Is per cent.
He provided the way. also. for
municipal ownership whenever the
state law would permit. and at a cost
OF only about 80 per cent above the
physical value. His one failure in
this matter consisted in being obliged
TO leave the execution of his low-fare
program TO the old company, though
under some municipal supervision
This company has always claimed that
low fares were impossible Pride OF

railway companies. and the interest

morning when a young Negro woman
was hailed before Magistrate Scott.

magistrate.

The magistrate turned to the hus-
band and asked him why he had had
his wife arrested.

husband.
"Vagrancy?" said the Judge. How
do you make that out? Does she not
live with you?"
YES" said the husband, but she

Why" said the Judge, that is not
vagrancy; that Is hydrophobia."
