commissioners at that time take out
an Injunction against the company
compelling them to restore the sale
Of the tickets, but instead the city
mad been put on the defensive.
Frank A. Houck spoke Of recent
actions taken against the trolley
company in Toledo, Ohio. where they
sell seven tickets for rs cents. Every
FIVE years the company is compelled
to make a revision of rates.
It was then suggested that refer
endum should be taken on the ques-
ton to ascertain whether the people
wanted TO eXpend the money for an
investigation. This the committee
said would take time and Mr.. White
said, "The people last election voted
for a river front and that body Of
gentlemen in there-pointing at
council chambers-has done nothing
in the matter"
Artemas Smith, another signer, said
that he recognized the fact that City
solicitor Hastings has his hands full
and he declared something should be
done, as every sale Of six tickets for a
quarter meant another loaf of bread.
/ Mr.. Smith added; 81 believe this board
with public sentiment behind il, will get
( the money TO 90 ahead with. In other
words. / believe nothing is too good for
the people,
President Vance expressed the
thought that nothing should be done
until the mayor appointed another
member ON the board, and it was fact
that the mayor and city solicitor Were
both busy. Mr. White replied they
should know they were appointed first
by the people.
Mr.. Bacher here explained that Mr.
Hastings had said the petitioners
would have TO have an attorney to pre-
sent their case, as he could not do so
Mr.. Bacher suggested that the commits
sioners engage an attorney TO represent
them at the hearing, but this was op
posed. II was finally decided TO have
the committee ascertain what the cos
of an attorneys services would be
After this is done a date for a hearin:

During the meeting IL was decided e
invite Mayor Howell and the member
Of the finance committee Of City Coun
ell TO attend the next meeting OF th

Demarest gave O'Bryne a great

the Wilson man led his Socialist rival
