GIVE SEATS TO ALL.
That Is What the Public Demands
of Street-Car Lines.
II Is Done In Other Cities, Why Not
in This i?
An Inspector Says the Syndicate Can
Defeat Any Law.

70 victory can be gained by persistent |
effort 1.-THE Evening World Is pre-
pared to keep up Its crusade against
the overcrowding of street oars In this
city until the next Legislature meets
and the people can demand OF their
representatives the rights to which they
are entitled.
They are beginning to realize, now
that the fight Is fairly on, that tney
have been too easily imposed upon by
the grasping and greedy corporations
which have been heaping UP enormous
profits at the expense OF their comfort
and convenience, and IN Vioiatioh "a
their undoubted rights.
They have endured submissiveiy LOT
wears what would not be tolerated In
any other city Of its rank In the "orio'
and the turning point has come at last.
1t won't do for the companies 10 put
on a few more cars, or run on quicker
Roadway. What the public demands
and what it has a right to expect Is
that every passenger who pays MS ia'e
shall be provided with seat.
If such a system is found practicable
in other cities, and is vigorously en-"
forced, there Is no reason why the peo-
pie Of New York should not enjoy the
