Commuters Declare that Com
pany Receives Enough from
Perth AmbOy TO Do Better.

People from this city who travel
over the Rapid Transit Railroad are
complaining bitterly of the way the
road has been treating them in re-
CARDS to service lately. Yesterday
conditions were worse than ever:
trains were running at any old time
and the boat was not in the slip
when the trains did arrive.
During the past few years many
people have used the Rapid Transit
Railroad and the company now, gets
a large percentage of the people who
go to New York, but many have be-
come disgusted and are arranging to
use other roads.
In conversation with a NEWS re-
porter this morning one of the pas
sengers who went to New York yes
terday and had been a commuter
over the Rapid Transit for years
said. "At the present time the Rapid
Transit Railroad is in worst condi-
tion than it was ten years ago and
the officials do not seem to make an
effort to remedy it, The road is GER
tainly getting too much from this
city to give such poor service and /
tell you in a short time the company
will notice the change"

$35 from him.
Jensen was on his way from
hotel in Main street at the time, to
get his horse and wagon which he
had left in a shed about a block
away. The first thing he knew the
negroes stepped out of the shadows
of some trees and demanded his
money. Jensen began to call for
help and Patrolman Kepple, who was
on the Main street beat, heard his
cries. The policeman ran to Jen-
sens assistance and the negroes ran.

Edward Johnson and James Willis,
two well known characters of this
place. Kepple called to them to stop.
They only doubled their speed, how
ever, and the patrolman drew his pis-
tol and fired twice in the air. Still
the negroes did not stop and as they
were gaining on him all the time
Kepple took aim and shot the third
time The shot hit Willis, but with
the aid of Johnson he managed to
get away from the patrolman.
Found Fellow in Bed.
In the meantime Jensen had gone
to Police Headquarters and was re-
porting the matter to the sergeant at
the desk as PatrGlman Kepple came
in and told Of his chase and shooting

B11L. TO SHUT UP DEAD-FALLs.

BILL TO SHUT UP DEAD-FALLS.
The authorities of the general govern
ment nave drawn a bill and ask that 1t
be presented to the Nevada Legislature
and enacted into a law at the coming
session. The bill prohibits the sale OF
liquor in less quantities thai five gallons
within five miles of any of the great ir-
rigation camps on the line of the govern
ment canal. The contractors have had
great trouble in keeping their men on
account of their visiting saloons and get
ting drunk. Derby, a station a few miles
west of Wadsworth on the line of the
ditch, and Hazen, a station east of
for many months. There has been a
gang of thugs operating at those points
and no less than six or eight murders
have been committed in as many months.
The authorities of Washoe county have
not been able to handle matters with any
degree of satisfaction to the government
or the people of the county Whetner
they have really tried or not the Silver
State does not know, but that If they
have, they nave made a miserable fail
ure, 1t does know. If the legislature
does the bidding of a half-dozen whiskey
Joints and a band of numbering thugs
rather than protect the men employed in
the great reclamation work the State will
nave no one to blame but the member OF
the incoming session If the work stops.
Common decency and the good name OF
the county should prompt the Washoe
delegation to do all in their power to
have the bill passed. This having a
murder every few days and uncounted
holdups in any part of the county for a
series of months is disgrace enough with
out having 1T go much further.
