Five-Cent Fares
Up to Committee


The street committee OF city coun-
ell win meet at 5 o'clock this after
noon. to recetve an ordinance from
the city attorney, concerning the
proposed five cent fare proposition.
AT the last meeting Of the street
committee an ordinance was passed
permitting the Virginia Railway and
Power company to charge Ave cents
straight, to increase the labor tickets
from two and a half cents each to
three for ten cents. allowing trafnc
over the vtaducts controlled by the
company, with a retention of the
school tickets, and elimination of tax
alton on the anticipated increase in
revenue by virtue OF the increase In
carfare This ordinance was adopted
by the vote of FIVE to four. those OPP
posing It being Councilmen English.
Atkinson, sullivan and Moore.
This ordinance was forwarded to
the city attorney with instructions to
whip it into shape. At the meeting
this afternoon this paper wifi be re-
viewed. and it is likely that Council
man English may strive to have 1t
amended. SO as to leave the labor
tickets as at present and to extent the
hour in which they may be used to
eight o'clock A. NJ. instead of seven,
as now.
II this enor is not made at the
meeting Of the committee, there Is
every prospect that 1t will be tried at
the meeting OF common council to-
night
The ordinance permitting the street
car company to install the skip-stop
system over all It's lines will also
come up for action at the meeting
of council tonight
An interesting incident in connec-
ton with the labor ticket fight is
that the corporation commission now
has before It a petition from the
Danville Traction company asking
relief from the labor tickets now in
effect in that city. The tickets in
Danvflle are good in the afternoons
as well as the mornings. II was said
by President Rison, Of the Danviile
company. before the corporation COM
mission on last Wednesday. that all
classes OF citizens used the labor tick
ets--millionaires N well a. the low
Hest OF working men. AZ there is
nothing in the franchise OF this
company requiring labor tickets, II Il
generally concluded that the corpo-
ration commission will grant the re-
quest OF the Danville company. Cap
tain A. B. Guigon, OF the Virginia
Railway and Power company, ap-
peared before the commission for the
Danville company.

and cotton. They sunk the ships and
cruelty murdered our sailors. Now
suppose we allowed them to stop all
our shipping, where would YOU be-
None OF your goods would be sold

that YOU would get nothing like the
prices which you get today This war
Is being waged partly that you may
obtain fair prices for your goods.
What is going to happen II we
lose this war; Prices OF farm pro
duce viii drop; the Germans will
impose taxation upon you which will
cripple you for the next twenty years.
Worse than that. II the Germans get
over here. they Will treat you in Just
the same way as they have the farm.

these sections farm houses have been

into slavery 70 work for German
masters, their women ill-treated In
ways that cannot be talked of In

their hands chopped off In order that
they may never fight or do any more
useful work again.
You may say such things viii not
