Open Letters on Both Sides of the Question from Bristol
A Bristol reader argues against granting an electric railway, saying it would invite speculation and burden taxpayers, contradicting the wishes of major taxpayers, including women with no vote. He warns new owners may care only for profit, and notes past grants to utility companies encouraged growth while costing the town. He urges careful scrutiny of public claims and favors preserving Bristol from becoming a transit hub.
