THUKSTON, Editor M 1 ' 111 I I m ^\ ! 111 m BLOCK THE WHEEL TIte ceaselosa g/rom»ter of rising prices has Bgaiii struck the telephon* anh rtiilway intereitf, and this rerolutioD of the wheel is likely to cause a ({renter dit^'uster to the buiintss world than anything hereto{i>re encountered. The public uiiiities controllsd by private iiiteieits have diacovnrod a wonderful secretâ€" one which they hopa will iu future Kivo them a bed of roses whereon to lie. This wondoiful secret is merely the discovery ihal they can grant with impunity any dmiaiidH luado on thorn by labor or by manufacturers of coin- iiio.iilies U'ied by them and pass the added cost on to the public. Ail they have to d.) if. to prove to a Commission lh.it their expenses are no and so, and they are [â- iHiited the privilsj^e of sticking their hinds in the pockets of the public ami extr.iciing eiiou(;h to reimliur>;e ihenmlves â€" and ii httlstvrri to piy for a caiupai;;ii of persuaaiou. Ir is hig^i bimo that the Railway fioiird and other Commissions got wise to this new and easy method of Snarcins, and put a block in front of the wheel. It is high time the big corporaliims were told to gi homo and (i(;ht tlio h'gh cost of living; as pmall companies and individuals have to light it. When a privaie company ia formed for the development of any line of business it sells Us stock to those who will buy. When funds run low it should go to its shareholders and tell them Ihiit they must put up more money, as in the case of banking institutions, oi else cut the dividend. There should be no thought of au'in'j to a Cjinmisj:on for privilege to r'iso r.s pricas. Sacih a condition would be productive of all manner of extrava- gance. If the company <lesires tfJ extend its plimt it should not ask th^ public to make it a present oF tbL> extension, but g.) about it an any busimss enterprise Bhou d when it wshes to rasa funds. In the c.tse of the telephone the point ha.s already bei n rcdchtd whtro many liBill ))Usinesa mtii and private ludividu- I als retain it merely »s a luxury and not asapiyiiig inve.stment. If ihi ant'ci- patcd raise iu granted many tolephnnrs will go out of commission, as the luxury wi I iheii become too great a luxury to be inlulpcd in. f^T^ DEPARTMENT OF CUSTOMS AND INLAND REVENUE NOTICE To Manufacturers, Wholesalers and Retailers i\I(ynOK is lieieby given to all ooiioofuol. tU;it LlDlunu aoooinpaniflil by remiitancc of tjnxnry a.m\ Fixmso^TaxtB, mint ba luftlo as fjliowi ti tli-!
