Municipal Ownership Advocates Win Victory
Bird’s eye view of San Francisco with black lines howing the street railway additions, for the
building and operation of which by the city a $3,500,000 bond issue has been voted. The dotted
lines represent the roads already.owned by the city.
SAN FRANCISCO, Sept. 1.—Com-
mitting Itself to the policy of the
public ownership of public utilities,
San Francisco voted a $3,500,000 bond
issue to build Its own railroads to the
great Panama-Pacific Exposition that
will be held in 1915.
In voting for these bonds the city
won a fight that was begun seventeen
years ago by William Randolph
Hearst and his newspapers in the In
terest of municipal ownership, and the
victory is the most distinctive of its
Kind ever achieved in the United
States.
It means that San Francisco will
not only operate Its own cars to the
fair grounds, but that in the days
to come it w’lll be a city where public
ownership of public utilities will be
a vital factor In its civic life.
The bonds voted for authorize an
elaborate extension of the munlelpal-
ly-owned Geary Street Railroad,
which has been operating through one
of the city’s principal arterlea of traf
fic since last December.
Will Ride in Own Cara.
San Franciscans now ride on their
own street cars from the ferry sta
tion, w’here passengers land from the
East, to Ocean Beach, a stretch of
tracks that traverse the city from
end to end.
The extensions to the railroad sys
tem authorized by the bond issue
voted yesterday will provide the peo
ple with their own cars in every por
tion of the city.
Competing against these cars will
be the cars of the United Railroads,
a corporation that has been so em
barrassed by litigation that it is using
every source of its vast organization
to accommodate the people who were
formerly subjected to the most
wretched railway accomodations in
the country.
Patrick Calhoun, who was president
of the United Railroads has been de
posed from office and his place has
been taken by Jesse W. Lilientha.1 a
San Francisco attorney.
The corporation saw the handwrit
ing on the wall at the eleventh hour,
and the announcement of the change
was made in the hope of having the
people vote against the bonds.
But the announcement came too
late, and the overwhelming vote for
the bonds served the notice on the
barons of big business in Ban Fran
cisco that the people had grown tired
of wretched street car service and
were going to run their own cars.
Lilienthal will, of course, improve
the service of the United Railroads,
and with this private corporation
competing with the municipally-
owned lines San Francisco should
have one of the btet railway systems
In the country.
The moral of the election 1b a fav
orable one, and it. shows that public
ownership of public utilities is a live,
practical issue that will have to be
met by 4 the public-spirited men and
women of every city in the country.
The seventeen-year fight conducted
for this principle by William Ran
dolph Hearst and his newspapers Is
not only felt here In San FYancisco.
In his mall to-day Mayor Rolph of
San Francisco had messages from men
throughout the nation, and nearly all
of them referred to the fact that
what San Francisco authorized in
the election yesterday would in time
be authorized by the people every
where in the United States.
■ These details of the costs an1
routes show how San Francisco will
spend the proceeds of the new' bond
Issue In extending its municipally-
owned railway system:
Van Ness Avenue Line—Cost $478,-
000; double track road from Market
street to Fort Mason, 2.07 miles; wrill
carry most of the traffic from south
of Market street, the main business
thoroughfare, to the site of the Pana
ma-Pacific Exposition and the trans
fer traffic from the Geary street mu
nicipal railway and from the Union
street line.
Potrero Avenue Line—Cost $348,000,
from Potrero and Twenty-fifth street;
over Mariposa, Florida and Twelfth
streets to Market street, thence sne
block to connect with the Van Ness
avenue line; distance, 2.2 milea
Union Street Line—Estimated cost,
rails and equipment after franchise
reverts to city, $779,400; distance, 3.7 V
miles.
rrurtn Point Line—Cost $235,600;
out Columbus avenue, from Union
street and Columbus to North Point
street, thence to the foot of Van
Ness avenue; distance, 1.05 miles.
Steiner Street Line—Cost $119,700;
extension of Union street line from
Union to Greenwich, thence to Scott
and Chestnut streets.
Stockton Street Line—Cost $229,-
200; through the tunnel from Market
street, one mile, to Junction with
Union street line at Columbus ave
nue. forming the shortest possible
way to the exposition grounds.
Chestnut Street Line—Cost $225,-
000; Van Ness avenue to Devldesero
avenue, one mile, forming loop with
Steiner and Union streets.
Church Street Line—Cost $500,000;
out Market street from Twtlfth to
Church, thence to Thirteenth street,
2.45 miles; will give transportation
to populous Noe Valley district.
California Street Line—Cost $500,-
000; connections with the Geary street
line w’lll be built on some street near
Arguello boulevard and at Thirty-
ninth avenue, as the franchise for the
present line has expired between F*irsrt
and Thirty-third avenue.
With these lines in operation San
Francisco will have its own care run
ning in every part of its widely-scat
tered territory.
The seventeen-year fight that made
this system of street railways possible
was begun by Mr. Hearst through
The San Francisco Examiner on
August 13. 1896.
No one in San Francisco longer
doubts the practicability and profits
of municipal ownership of municipal
utilities. The profits go daily Into
the cash box of the city and the peo
ple went to the polls yesterday de
termined to extend their own enter
prise.
The bond issue authorizing the ex
tension of the municipal line carried
by an overwhelming vote. It was a
veritable landslide, and the vote sur
prised even the most optimistic
friends of municipal ownership.
Led by The Examiner the people of
San Francisco have decided for all
time their policy of owning their own
transportation lines.
The result of the election means
the people of the Golden Gate will
in time assume control of all their
public utilities, and that tne princlpl®
for which William Randolph Hearst
has been fighting for so many years
has been firmly established among the
electorate.
San Francisco has shown that pub
lic ownership of public utilities can
be achieved, and the people of tho
other great American cities are cer
tain to take pattern of it.
