The people out along the fernando
street, street railway line, are dis
gusted and indignant at the loose,
slipshOd and bungling manne in
which the street car line is conducted,
and yesterday evening an indignant
protest at the public nuisance, was in
course Of preparation. 1t is under
stood that all residents along the line
are a unit in their opinion hat the
cars are so badly managed, that in
stead of being a public convenience,
they are an a%ggravation and an unmiti-
gated nuisance. Even in this pleasant
dry weather the cars run with no regu-
larity, go bumpity bump over rough
rails badly fastened, make frequent
jumps from the unrepaired and poorly
cared for track, and many other fea
lures wholly inexeusable, If there is
a meaner managed car line on earth,
than the fernando, no record
Of the same has ever been promul-
gated. As many as thirty people
often ride on a single bob.tailed car,
and sometimes even the top OF the
bouncing structure is crowded with
six or seven persons, while the inside
is crammed to suftocstioa, all because
the cars run at intervals so wide that
people, if they ride at all, are thus
compelled to do it. The scarcity of
drivers is assigned as the cause Of the
few cars now running, their made
quate wages of forty dollars per month
and board themselves causing many to
seek other service, several weeks
ago, after the dull season passed,
and hostlegs from the stables have of
late been trying their hand at the
driving business. Ifthe railway could
be put in respectable repair, to keep
the cars from jumping the track so
much, and, too, if the seats could be
swept and brushed at intervals and a
little mending done in a general way,
both in management and otherwise,
the patrons Of the street railway might
be reconciled to the fact that they
have the s%orriest street-csr line in the
world. AS it is at present, however
walking is ~desidedly preferable to rid.
