to pull the wool over their eyes and
induce them to enter into a long or
short contract with them to install mo-
tor busses in the downtown district
in the place of the present modern
street cars. In our humble opinion it
will mean political death TO every
member Of the Local Transportation
Committee to vote in favor Of doing
away with the present street car sys-
tenn and installing in its place the
busses Of the Chicago Motor Coach
Company.
Hon. John J. Mitchell, president OF
the Illinois Merchants Trust Com

ident Of the Union Trust Company
Hon. Henry A. Blair, receivers for the
Chicago Railways Company, and Hon.
Leonard A. Busby, president Of the

willing to kick in and 60 along with
the city officials and settle the trac-
ton question for many years to come.

zens Of this great city, who are deeply
interested in its future progress or adj
vancement, that the gentlemen COM
posing the committee on local trans
portation OF the city council have in
the past year or 50 expended several
million hours in time right here in this
city and in travelling around over the
country at the great expense to this
city, while visiting one-horse towns to
study the street car systems Of those
towns, and after blowing in many
thousands of dollars which belonged
to the small tax payer, SO far not one
thing has been accomplished which
would be Of the slightest benefit to the
