lhal are in position to know, that me daily quota of passengers is from ooo to TOO many times throughout the day. The people wish the trolley company no harm, neither do they wish to sec any discontinuance on any of the lines, but what they do want ls fair and reasonable rates that they are always willing to pay for.
 There is no question but that the Connectlcut company has been obliged to raise it's rates in order to pay running expenses, and if it has been the means of keeping some of the trade at home it is a good thing for our local dealers.
 The jitneys may survive during the mild weather period, but with the advent Of heavy snow storms people will forsake them for fear of being stalled a long way from their homes
 Not so with the Connecticut com- pany, as all the lines are imm ediately opened after the cessation of'a storm.
