people Of the Hudson River towns who con-

The Mayor OF New York should be empowered

The PEOPLES FIGHT.
Still the Struggle Against Over
crowded Cars Progresses.
The Public Demands Ordinary Com
forts for the Fares 1t Pays.
Several Pat Suggestions by "Even-
ing World" Readers.

During the damp, muggy weather of
the past few days the dscomforts of
travelling on the street car lines has
been greatly aggravated. Nothing is
more vexatious than to be crowded up
into corner, squeezed and trampled
upon, unable to get breath of fresh
air, or even to move in any direction, on
one OF those hot. sweltering days.
This has been the fate, however, Of
hundreds of passengers in the over
crowded cars. They have paid their
fares and secured their seats, yet they
have actually been rendered more I'M
comfortable and wretched than those
who have been obliged to stand during
the entire trip.
What the public demand Is that laws
should be passed prohibiting the street
railway companies from carrying more
than certain number of passengers on
their cars. The limit should be fixed
by the seating capacity Of each car,
and the rule should be rigidly enforced
by the police, who could very well see
when any attempt wGs being made to
overcrowd a car.
Trailers, relays and extra cars are all
panies should be compelled to operate
them during the busy hours of the day,
at morning and evening. when the de-
mand for accommodations is most ur-
gent. Yet the present evil will never
be remedied so long as conductors are
compelled to take on board every person
who halls the car, no matter how crowd
ed 1t may be.
On every one of the lines spies are
employed to watch the conductors and
drivers, and II they fail to stop for peo-
pie who hail the car, and do not make
every effort to squeeze them aboard,
they are reported at headquarters as
delinquents, and soon find that their
services can be dispensed with unless
they carry out the policy of the corpora
ton to squeeze every cent of profit out
of the public they possibly can.
The readers of THE Evening Worid'
are clamoring for the adoption by the
gestlons that have been made for the
relief OF the strain.
Give us more cars. trailers, relays.
say say ' "and we viii be satisfied"
Within the last week the Third ave-
nue. cable line has taken OFF the trailers
which IT formerly experimental with:
1t is said that the cable has been found
true Is another Illustration OF the man
ner in which these corporations try to
impose upon the public by constructing
their roads Of poor material, with cheap
equipments. 49,
In several of the large Western cities,
notably in Chicago and st. Louis, II Is
the exception to see a car running SIN
gle. One, two, and sometimes three ad-
ditional cars are attached, and the num-
Der of accidents and delays Is very much
less than In New YORK. Az,

4 Bad State Of Affairs.

The people of the South are being
deceived in the purchase Of limitations
medicines: It's poor consolation to
sick man to be told that the medi-
cine offered him certainly wont DO
him any harm. Wrong; it will DO
great harm. It allows the disease
to progress instead of stopping il,
and this is most dangerous because
the disease will soon be beyond cure.
This is the best reason why you
should be sure to get the right mcdi-
cine. Don't risk your health in try
ing any of the many Liver Modicil es
which have sprung up in the South
to be sold in place of Simmons LiveT
Regulator, put up by J. Il. Zeilln 4
Co., with tie Red 4 on every pack
age, this was the medicine Of your
fathers, and they lived long. Have
nothing to do with anything else, or

persuade yen that the many imita-
tions under different names are just
as good. It's not true. The people
who buy them heap up their miseries.
