The requirement. OF seat for each
passenger i'm cars whether on electric
or steam railways Is absolutely Just.
and in cases of long rides il is abso-
lutely necessary. But when one comes
down from the theoretically TO the practi-
cal one hardly knows how to obtain
the practical. There is little use in
screaming for reforms when IL is the
screainer himself who is chiefly nj
fault. Why do you get upon car
which is already overcrowded? Two
cars leave Is neighborhood every
day. The forward car will be crowded
"Jammed" full. while the car following
closely behind. will have abundance OF
empty seats. Now. who is 10 blame?
The railways should find some way 10
overcome this peculiar charac which
nevertheless is almost universal among
people. The making Of people wait AT
the ends of the routes, will save lots
OF scoiding for waiting along the
tracks. But whatever Is to be done by
conductors and motormen, no more
stealing or switches must be tolerated.
Let the passengers howl II they
choose. but don't move car.
