said that he intended to turn tho

There arc several reasons why the
electric railway should be extended to
the foot OF East Fourth street, from
Market street. The Philadelphia boats
are literally patronized, and people
residing in the north and west side Of
the City should have come way OF
reaching them direct, without being
obliged to walk from Market street.
Again, the steamboat company is lib
orally advertising the parks of this
city and tho romantic, historical
Brandywine. yet when people come
hero to visit these places, they find
that they have walk OF some ten
squares TO Market street before they
can obtain car to ride out. There is
still another reason, and that Is, the
line should be extended for the benefit
q the people living on me east eide OF
the city. At present, II anyone living
in that part OF the city wishes to go up
town they are obliged to walk Ia
Ninth street to secure car. These
are reasons that should have some
effect on the company, and II 1t Is theil
desire to accommodate the people as
well as to mako money. the line will
surely lie extended before many weeks
