If it ban question of revonue, why not increase the Light Dues P In 1875 these were imposed at the rate of one cent per ton. In 1890 they were increased to 2 cents per ton, and in 1898 reduced again to one cent, the original rate, at which they still stand. A small increase would provide ample revenue for the urgent work required, and the shipping can well afford it. Yours truly,
