FAIRvIEW MAN KICKS ON

Mayor Answers With Fresh
Moan Over Fate of Thomp-

A complaint from Hiram Potts, real
estate dealer, at No. 627 Utlca-ave.'
in the old Fairview district, that he
still has 10 pay 10-cent fare Oh the
street cars to get down town, gave
Mayor Thompson an opportunity,
Monday, for a fresh moan over the
fate OF the very much discredited
Thompson HaIly franchise put TO
sleep by the voters Jan. 20. The
mayor walls to the extent of hve
closely-written pages Here are few
samples of the tears.
Fellow citizen, let me read you a
page out or the book or my public ex-
perience, have been 20 years Ia

life, the street railway was fresh and
novel. You will admit that 1t pre-

sor for so many lawsuits on the sub
ject that may be well excused Tor
failing to recognize at sight some OF
the litigations to which 1 stand in the
attitude OF parent.
"A year ago I became convinced
that strife 10 attain the Ideal was an
exceedingly long-winded proposition.
then turned my attention 10 lne

an agreement was reached that seem
ed sufficiently practical and Just 10

and submitting II TO the people, so
that they might get immediate Dene'
AT from Il. That was what was done
Jan. 23. OF this year. II pleased a ma
iority of those who voted on the sub
iect to voice their disapprovai OF the
agreement. AS you frankly say, you
were among those who disapproved.
There was certainly neither lack
of advocacy nor plainness OF state
ment about the proposed settlement
II was offered, on the one hand, as
complete, prompt and final settlement
of the conditions against which the
public had been protesting, among
them the one concerning which you
now write me, and on the other hand,
as an end to a litigation which. OF
itself. seems never to approach It's
end.
IF cold second thought shows you
now that your own course and tnat
OF those who agreed with you was
wrong, there Is some comfort In know
ing that, even at this late and un-
practical date.
The city government has now
taken the course you advised By your
vote, and is again In the saddle OF
litigation, travelling over what must
perforce prove to be very long and
rough road. In the meantime, as We
are giving no favor, we can expect
none. Earnest lawsuits are not mark

COOPERATIVE SOCIETIES
FIGHT HIGH LIVING COST
President Taft Submits Infor-

WASHINGTON. May 6.--Interest-

which European nations are combat
ting the high cost OF living by or
ganizing cooperative societies, were
given In consular reports transmitted
TO congress today by President TAFT,
as the second instalment OF his for
mer high cost OF living message.
France and Belgium, the report
says, have successful organizations
among workers, where. relief funds
are administered and insurance
against illness and forced non-em-
2lcyment is supplied Southern
France has many cooperative agri-
cultural societies, which, aided by
the government, supply farmers with
machinery, either loaned gratuitous-
ly, or purchaseabIe on small pay
ments. The organizations also buy
the crops.
= The. cooperative system In France
las also resulted In the ownership OF
a number OF industrial plants by
workers themselves. The report cites
cases at Lyons. particularly.
The effect the French cooperative
societies has on prices OF foodstuffs.
the message says, is almost entirely
in keeping them stable and at fair
degree, seldom being below the
prices of the stores. In Belgium, how
ever. the cooperative organizations
sell lower than the markets, allowing
members only to purchase and dis
tributing nominal profits. Funds are
set aside for Insurance. pensions
strike relief, etc. This movement in
Belgium, the report states, dates
from the growth OF the socialistic
and labor parties.
Both the Netherlands and Denmark
contain many similar cooperative or
ganizations.
