for an injunction in the chancery
court at Jersey City to stop the

prove the contention"

W. r. & E. Wants New System if
Revenue Is Reduced.

The Washington Railway and Elec-
trio Company will ask for zone sys-
tenn of fares If the Public Utilities
Commission reduces the present rate
to an amount that would only meet
the needs of the Capital Traction
Company.
William F. Ham. president of the

ing a date for the public hearing on

the commission, announced at noon

When the proposal was made more
than a year ago to meet the needs of
the suburban lines of the Washington
Hallway and Electric Company by di-
viding the city into zones and regu-
lating the fare according to the dis
tance a passenger rides. storm of
protest arose from all parts of the
district. The commission decided that
while a zone system would be equit-
able in principle, the city seemed
united in opposition to such plan
and il was rejected.
At today's meeting Of the commits
sion William Nick. Clayton. attorney
for the Federation of Citizens Asso-

CLAYTON, lis that the present rate of

which we regard as unreasonable. be
reduced. Now, If the commission finds
that 1t would be better to reduce the
fare on both systems to an amount
that would keep the Capital Traction
from earning more than it needs we
would be satisfied.

Villas County Fair-Sept. Ia and Is.
Attending State Fair.

Many people from Villas county
are at Milwaukee this week in
attendance at the state fair, now
in progress. From all reports
the state exhibition is making a
creditable showing of the pro
ducts of the state. 1t is stated
that there is an absence in exhib-
its of quie number of counties
from the north half of the state,
owing to the early dates in which
the fair management insist on
holding the fair. 1t is not fair
to the northern counties to thus
crowd them out from showing
their exhibits of grains, grasses
and other products, especially
potatoes, of which this end of
the state leads. 1t is hoped that
later dates will be given next
years fair.
