I am very anxious to have one complete system of suhwaya wlih one fare ail over the system, and want the city to get to work at the building thereof In all the boroughs aiiiiiiltaneousiy and at once, but there are ethers wh, Insist on the city building what they caTl an "Independent" s-tem. which would establish a separate fare on each system, and make half Ihe people pay an extra fnre for transfers.

1 am wholly unable to understand why they take such a jxislllon, 1 ut do not wish to hnd any fault. The existing differences of opinion are unfortunately causing a delay which is very Irkpune to me. The whole matter should have been settled three, months after the present city officials came Into office, but here we ait in the second year, and It Is not settled yet. When we were running for office, of us piMinised to have the suhwavs built as speedily' as possible, but no one, so far as know, pledged himself to any particular route or subway. know that.

I did not. It Is our duly to have the most eligible routes built, so as to connect all of the boroughs, with a single fare ad oyer the systeju. 1 have been working at It for a. year, but you know that wheiv there are differing mind delay is tha inevitable result. As the city has n.it.
