The Tri-City Railway Company's
Alternative.

Patrons certainly will not welcome the
news that the Tri-City Railway company plans
asking another fare increase-or one-man cars
as an alternative. After threshing the matter out
only few months ago nobody now will enjoy
a renewal of the controversy, especially since
most people had supposed that the advance
from to 7 cents would be sufficient to enable
the company to meet its obligations and render
good service for at least year.
Now the proposal is to push fares up from
I to 10 cents. This demand, of course, is one
in which the people realize they have no voice.
If the state public utilities commission consid-
ers the raise justified it will be tackled on, re-
CARELESS of what patrons may have to say
On the subject of one-man cars however, the
public feels it has voice and right to pro-
test where it will be heard and respected. 1t
means step backward in appearances and in
service. TRICKY residents always have taken
much pride in their street car system. 1t has
teen commercial asset. To take away the
big double-truckers and substitute dinkeys for
them would be humiiating. City councils are
apt to hear something drop if they consent to
such an outrage
Since the Tri-City Railway company is a
quasi-public institution its internal policies
are fairly open to discussion. particularly
since it is continually talking about its
deficits. 1t says it has been losing money
even with 7-cent fares, yet for several
months it has kept its shops busy re-
moving bulkheads. Or partitions between the
main car bodies and the vestibules, on the big
400 series cars. The object never has been
explained and is considered merely whm-
and an expensive one for corporation that is
crying poor mouth These bulkheads cost extra
in the first place and now it is estimated that
! it takes from $500 to 5000 to take them out of
| each car and make necessary repairs. Such a
! sum would go far toward keeping the equip
ment in good mechanical condition and pre-
| sentable in appearance. If the company were
| piling up a surplus it would be nobody's bust
Less what it did with its money, but when it
| comes asking for concessions on the ground
| that it is hard up the matter takes on a diff
ferent aspect. Patrons do not like to be as
sessed to make good losses involved in indulg.
ing whims.
The Argus feels that the people are justi.
fed in resisting fare increase and especialIt
in fighting one-man cars to the limit of theil
| resources, on the ground of safety and con-
venience as well as appearances.

Germany has not lost its military habit. 1t

SOUTH.BOUND,

SUI nsDOUNUs
One of the most interesting
things about modern rapid transit
is the opportunity it gives you to
see a swift panorama of changing
scenery.
In going from New York to Key
West, you travel a couple of days
from the north temperate zone to
the tropics. You roll at first
through typical northern farm
country, blanketed in snow at
this time Of the year, with wide
bleak fields and bare woodlands,
and comfortable farm houses send
ing up pillars of smoke against a
gray sky.
Soon the snow disappears, and
the hardwood forests are replaced
by vast open pine forests with
sandy floors, while the cultivated
areas grow fewer and fewer. Then
begin the swamps, the great I'M
conquered swamps of the Atlantic
coastal plane, which alternate with
the pine forests, growing always
larger and denser as you go south
ward. Soon they are typical sub
tropical swamps, tangled with
creepers and bearded with Span
ish moss. The mangroves begin to
appear, standing up out of the
water on their exposed roots. These
swamps are one of our great un-
used resources. for under their
shallow water lies black soil made
of rotting vegetation which would
support rich crops. Yet they are
as wild now as they were a CEN
fury ago, and impenetrable except
by way OF the black, smooth, bank
full rivers that crawl under their
oyerhanging Jungles.
On the evening of the second day
you see the last of the swamps and
when you wake up in the morning.
you look out into a land where
palm and palmetto grow along

Dear Mrs. Thompson: I am not

good home and my father is good
to me. l enjoy home and the
privileges of home very much.
But | do not have any money for
clothes or to spend on little
things, except by slowly using a
small inheritance 1 have received.
1t seems to me the inheritance
should be saved instead of my
being forced to spend it.
1t is a case of choosing whether
shall leave home and make my
own way or to stay at home and
do without clothes and hardly look
respectable.
Which do you think the better
way? BACHELOR GIRL.
l think it would do you good to
leave your home and work. The
experience you would gain in the
business would be refreshing and
would life you out of a rut into
which you have probably fallen
from spending too. much time IN
| the home.
While your father is living you
are contented in the home, but
when the time comes that he must
leave you, you will be grateful for
the obsorbing interest which office
work will furnish. Besides, when
you get out among. people and have
more opportunity to meet men you
will probably marry.
