Wthout quoohng win the Star, We state
orieny that We arc opposed TO allowing any
person, white or oiaek' man or woman, the
use OF me street cars Tor conveying baggage
Ihat covers everything.
II the eoi'or oi inc ,'dr uocs not KNOW 'he
fact we DO oy observation and by reports from
many s!o WITNESS, 'nS' On market Gays the
cars are 80 cro"oed win persons conveying
baskets, some OF them very large, containing
flsh, or corned beef, or meats, from which drip
slime, brine, and blood, that business people,
without luggage, men and women, rich and
poor, mostly 'dooring classes IN the employ Of ~
Government, cannot obtain seat or standing
roomi or, II they do gain admission to tho cal
at all, 1t Is likely TO be at the expense ofspoillng
new dress or suit Of clothes. This 10 oul
complaint, and 1t Is legitimate. This was th'
complaint made by Justice" In her commu
nieation, published in tho REPUBLICAN las
August, which the Star has laid such stress
upon. The author is lady who Is employed
as eopyist by the Government. she described
scene where a coarse, vulgar behaved woman
entered one OF the cars with large, ragged
basket, the projecting fragments Of whlcl
caught the muslin dress OF poor girl, and tor,
h'o badly that she cried. Now, the Star ar
gues that this "caurse, rude vlrago," as oul
lady correspondent very properly characterize
her, Is a "white lady" We don't believe II
nor do the ladies OF Washington, whether they
be rich or poor.
We contend, that, on market days, special
roomy cars should be provided for all porSonl
| conyeyinR marketlnV. and that M bagg.1,
