HERMAN FOR IT.
Councilman Will Vote for Franchises
1eeause Of Street Car Extensions.

counoiln,an Will Vote for Franchises
eecauss Of Street Car Extensions.
Editor imes-Republican: When the
franchises first came up felt that the
matter Of street car extensions was
more important than electric light
rates because the council could change
the rates while nobody but the COM
pany itself could build the street car
lines. It was not until the franchise
men took the council over the city and
showed us where they would build
their street car lines that would vote
for their franchises.
Now since they have put into a writ
ten contract drawn up for the council
by Mr.. Carney because Mr.. Northup
was out of town, the promises they
made to us about the street car lines
am heartily in favor Of the franchises.
voted against the Darling fran
chises and I have seen in the paper
that these franchises. don't look good
to him or may be they look too good
for the city. 1'voted for the Hull ordi-
nances, but have been shown by
those who know that the rates in these
franchises are lower than in the Hull
ordinances and lower than in the Darl-
ing franchise and believe they are
the lowest we can get II they are not
the next council can change them.
There are so many stumps in the
way for city ownership and go many
laws would have to be changed that
believe we can get our new street car
lines quicker by voting for the Cedar
Rapids men to push Jones & Hovey
out, and get it straight from the law
yers that the franchises keep for the
city the right to build its own plant
whenever we want to do it.
know that a Des Moines syndicate
has man here now to option land in
the west part Of town where they will
bnild a lot Of new houses for working
men II the street car lines are extended
and this will be a good thing.

Chartered Accountants and Expert En-

Some people are working overtime
telling things that are not true to op-
pose the franchises. For instance they
say that we can fix our books so that
city council could not ascertain any
information about our business. We
assume that city council would en-
ploy chartered accountants and ex-
pert gas and electrical engineers as
was done in the Cedar Rapids and Des
Moines law suits and il our books have
been doctored these engineers and ac
countants will find 1t out. The Cedar

upon the showing from the books alone
