CARS. LAWS AND MORALS.

The running of express or freight cars by the
Metropolitan Street Railway Company. to the
exclusion OF the passenger cars needed Tor
comfort and decency seems TO be acquiesced In
by some as legal. right and proper 1t is TO be
assumed that the company has assured itself
Of the technical legality of It, OF the proprety
and the equity Of ii, however, there are grave
doubts Or. perhaps we should say there is no
doubt that II violates both propriety and equity.
The street railways were chartered by the
government and were permitted to occupy ana
to use public property, primarily for the pur-
pose Of carrying passengers II does not matter
for present purposes TO what extent they may,
under some technical construction of their char
tiers. be permitted to engage In other occupa-
;iors than the carrying Of passengers. The
present point Is this than which nothing can
be more obvious. that their first obligation is 10
fulfil that first. fundamental and paramount
purpose-the transportation OF passengers. And
until they do that satisfactorily until they give
decent and comfortable accommodations 10
every passenger. they have in equity and
morals no right TO undertake anything else
most certainly they have no right TO undertake
something which will essentially interfere with
the fulflment of that first duty.
And Yet the latter is precisely what the Metro
politan Street Railway Company is now doing.
1t is conspicuously and nOtoriously falling TO
fulfil the first purpose for which 1t was char
tered. 1t does not give safe, comfortable or
decent transportation TO passengers. And yet
il is now undertaking something else which
will make that failure all the greater. 1t says
II cannot give better passenger accommoda-
tons because il is impossible to run more cars.
Yet II has begun running more cars, only they
are not for passengers but for freight. We do
not know and we do not care whether these
new cars are entirely additional to the ordinary
complement of passenger cars or are put on IN
place of passenger cars which have been with
drawn 10 make room for them. 1t does not
matter In either case these new cars fill places
which might be filled with passenger cars 10
the improvement of the passenger service and
thus they are an obstruction 10 the performance
of the companys prime duty.
We can recall no more fragrant and cynical
defiance of public right than this. The public
has given 10 this corporation vast privileges,
out Of which the company is making millions
of dollars in profits. In return the public has
a right 10 demand safe. comfortable and decent
passenger transportation. The company does
not give such transportation And by this
latest act IL practically declares that II could
give il if II would, but will not. For 1t easily
finds room on its lines for more cars out OF
which TO make more money, but refuses 10 find
room for even one more In which 10 give seats
to passengers and 10 save passengers from un-
speakable indignities. 1t is gross violation Of
equity, and il should be made as gross viola
ton of statute law.

This is the season of the year when every
body tells everybody else just how to conduct
himself, how to keep COOL how to keep we'll,
how to sleep at night. how 10 avoid summer
drowsiness, where to go for n vacation, also
where not to 90, how TO dress, what to eat
what not 10 eat together with host of path
illogical directions. the following of which
would lead one TO an insane asylum or to
green midsummer grave. All of this advice,
which is given freely, is well meant; therefore 1t
should he courteously received. 1t Is not proper,
for instance, 10 throw paving stones at man
who tells you that the palm leaf fan you are
carrying and waving only adds to your discom-
fort. The throwing of paving stones, seldom
excusable, is especially bad form In summer,
for it engenders heat. which every one, Of
course ought to avoid as far as possible during
the dog days.
The best thought in summer conduct, 1t seems
on examination is 10 keep as strictly as posi-
bic to ones own business, and go about that as
slowly as the nature of the business will per
NIT 1t is useless 10 tell man TO go slowly
when he has only three minutes to 90 from the

represents the time Of the departure of the last
available boat The principle of going slowly.
in fact, is a splendid principle. but some dlscre-
ton must be used in the application of it. That
Is the reason why It is wise to he cautious in
giving advice about II. But none the less. going
slowly is wisest when the weather Is tOrrid.
There is one other rule of conduct for the
heated term. The hotter 1t gets the more one
ought 10 hope for cooler weather. Cooler
weather is sure to come. II may come with
delightful rush which sends man changing his
ducks and crashes for heavier clothing, or it
may come more slowly. and therefore. perhaps,
