PUBLIC OPINION

Editor Evening News:
I desire to make a vigorous protest
for the utter Indifference with which
the passengers of the Raritan Traction
Company are treated. All winter the
road has been run, (if it a be said
to run), entirely regardless of the
comfort or convenience of passengers.
For example: Recently. quite a num-
Der of men from our town attended q
meeting at New Brunswick, taking
the last car down from New Bruins
wick. Reaching Germantown tie
power gave out and there was nothing
left for the passengers to do but walk
it, quite q nice distance from Bon
hamtown to Perth Amboy on a dark
miserable night.
Only a few night ago the cars were
stalled on the New Brunswick bridge
and the passengers had q delay of two
hours or more.
There are lots of cases where the
passengers have to put up with similar
CT worse condition of affairs. I here
with send you an article where q
company had it's charter revoked on
less pr~ovocation than the cars running
between New Brunswick and Metucll-
en- give The public. The patience of a
commuter even has limit, and things
have reached such a stage, that some
action should be taken in the matter.
1t is high time that the railroad offic-
ials provide a remedy for same.
I would suggest and / think it would
be no more than our rights, to have a
waiting car placed where the Metuch-
en- car stops. When changing for the
New Brunswick car the passengers
are exposed to the inclemency of the
weather from a half to three quarters
of an hour, ,some times, and many a.
case of sickness has BEEN developed
there this winter.
II your esteemed paper will kindly
publish above statement, you will
have the thanks of many commuters

SLOOP WAS
FROZEN FAST.

After trying for more than three
weeks to get here from Giffords, S.
l., the oyster sloop General George
P. Putnam, with n load of oysters for
Booth and o., arrived at the steam =
boat dock last night. The Putnam is
chartered by James E. Noe, and three
weeks ago she got a cargo of oysters
on the beds at Great Kills. A start
for this city was made but before they
could get under way the sloop became
frozen in the ice.
The crew of two men knew that it
would be useless to try and get out
and the only thing they could do was
to wait for a break up. The bivalves
are being rushed to New York, as
they are in great demand and prices
are high.

NEW BUILDING OUTLINED STATE WINS IRON LANDS
TRACT NEAR VIR-
GINA rs DECLARED TO BE
SWAMP AND BELONGS TO THE
STATE.


State Auditor Iverson is greatly
pleased over the favorable decision
for the state in the swamp land case,
related in dispatches from Washing
ton yesterday. It gives the state a
tract of thirty-six acres, known as lot
1, section 6, township 5S1h, range II.
The land lies near Virginia and is
surrounded by valuable mines. 1t is
practically certain that the tract con-
tains some 100000 tons of iron ore,
on which the states royalty will
amount to 100000.
Title to the tract was disputed by
Bradshaw and Smith, Wisconsin men,
who claimed it under forestry scrip.
1t had been classed as swamp by Sur
veyor General Warner, who was in
structed to review the case again. He
did so, and last June filed second
decision, again giving the land to the
state. The claimants appealed to the
general land office and made a hard
fight. Wayne McVeagh, former attor-
ney general, was retained by the state
The final decision by w. A. Richards
general land commissioner, declares
the tract to be swamp and the fee
! with the state of Minnesota.
