NOTES.
The following communication from q
local realty dealer was received at the real
estate department yesterday, which eX-
plains itself:
There is not another city in the Union
where the wants and comfort of the travel
ing public are SO completely ignored as in
the city of San Francisco. To come to this
conclusion one has only TO witness some
fine Sunday afternoon the rough and tumble
scramble of the passengers Tor seats in
going to or coming from tie beach. ii the
Haight-StrePt line had any regard tor Its
patrons it would long since have had 4 COM
Portable station for their accommodation
where its line strikes the beach at the SOUTH
ern corner OF The park. The great majority
of the people who travel by that line 60 Tor
a stroll on the beach, where they can eat
their lunch and have good romp and play
on the strand. and would greatly prefer get
terminus and dumped in the dust and sand.
