G. N. Herried, c. N. Harris, Col.
Charles A. Howard, C. F. Easton and
A. L. Ward, all prominent Aberdeen
capitalists, have decided to ask other
Aberdeen business men to help share
the burden of maintaining the public
service corporation until the patronage
reaches a point where it will meet ex-
penses and return a profit. Accordingly
a temporary receiver will be asked for
the corporation, but the street car SER
vice will be maintained. and an ar
rangement viii be made to enable Alb
erdeen citizens to take stock in the
company n wait for better times for
their dividends.
The value of the franchise, under
which service must be maintained, is
recognized, and the hope is to keep
the property in local hands. 1t was
with his end in view that the directors
decided to authorize President Herreid
Of the company to apply for a tempo

be effected.
For the first two years Of it's ex-
