Want Eight Rides for Quarter.

Elgin, 111., dispatch: Eight rides for 25 cents is the concession which the joint committee from the city council have decided to ask from the Elgin, Aurora & Southern Traction Company in exchange for a twenty-year franchise. Inasmuch as the old franchise for the principal lines does not expire until the year 1917, a new twenty-year franchise will mean extension of only four years.
