ing and the balances on hand stood I
at a lower figure than they have been
lor many years.
The condition is exactly what wus i
predicted last winter when the special I
funds were created and heavy appro- '
priations were authorized. Lust night !
it appeared that the revenues were;
only $300,000 ahead of those for last :
year, but the payments $3,000,000
more, while over $1,900,000 was still'
due the schools. i
"Sources of revenue were dimin- I
ished by the last legislature." State i
Treasurer Young said in discussing the
deficit. "The increase of half a mil
lion dollars In the receipts is ac
counted for only by the increased nat
ural wealth of the State. The Legis
lature returned all the personal prop
erty tax to the counties and cut off
several other sources of revenue.
1 hen, too, the State Is not receiving
any money on the coal tonnage, which
some persons were foolish enough to ,
look forward to."

Summing Up
Being Article No. 12.
on the subject of
Jitney Regulation ' ♦ I
tj Two weeks ago we announced our intention of pub
lishing a series of daily articles setting forth the condi
tions under which the jitney is permitted to operate in
this city.
•I We asked you to read those articles from day to day,
reserving until all had been published your decision on
this question "Shall Present Conditions Continue?"
Those articles have appeared.
*1 In each we have endeavored to adhere strictly to
facts—to present conditions in a clear, concise way—
and to point out how a continuance thereof will work
a hardship upon you as well as this company.
The time has now arrived for your answer.
Let's review these conditions briefly, for consid
eration, one at a time.
1. We have pointed out that the city doubled traffic thereon and is has
has discriminated in dealing with tening the day when these streets
its citizens, by compelling those will have to be renewed—that they
comprising this company to engage are YOUR streets, paid for with
in its enterprise under heavy regu- YOUR money and to be main
lations, and permitting those com- tained by YOU—and that one of
prising the jitney owners to en- these days there will be a heavy
gage, unrestricted, in the same en- repair bill to be met—not by the
terprise, and to prey unmolested jitney—but by YOU.

it is never used by the company based upon receipts of $lO per day

The remedy for all of these conditions rests in your
hands.
CI There is before council an ordinance imposing rea
sonable regulations upon the jitney. Get into commu
nication with your councilmen—talk the matter over
with them—and insist that such restrictions shall be
imposed upon this, as upon other public carriers in the
same class, as will provide protection for YOU—morally,
physically and financially.
€| The jitney interests are talking to the councilmen—
silence on your part may be construed as lack of
interest—so it's highly important to you that you make
known your wishes in the matter without delay.
<1 See that YOU are protected—and then let the com
peting factors in public transportation fight out their
battles between themselves.

P. S.—To-morrow wc will re
view some of the provisions of
the ordinance now before council.
