All the trolley wires on Manhattan Island are underground
and out of sight. There are no cable roads left.
Why cannot Chicago, behind all other cities in street car
service, have similar lines?
No franchise should be granted in the future except on
condition that the wires go underground and the street car
companies pave the streets from curb to curb.

The Ice Trust, which raises the price on the poor,
is the Advance Guard of Hades. It is in league with
the Heat Fiend to crush out human life or extort
money. If there is any honor left in our Legislature
or City Council, the Ice Trust should be smashed.

The Street Car Franchises will be renewed next year without any concessions to our citizens.
The proper "People" and Reformers have been fixed. As the date draws near when the franchises
expire their silence becomes more profound. Does money alone talk? The deal has evidently been
made and the stock and "stuff" distributed among the right parties. NO BETTER ACCOMMODA
TIONS FOR PASSENGERS. NO LOWER FARES. NO IMPROVEMENT IN CARS. Just lower
the tunnels. That is enough for the people, say the gangsters.
