SOME RAILROAD NEWS.

Mirabile dictul There is always
something new under the sun. Here
we have been told by railway men for
eyars that it is wrong for one man to
sign another mans name to a railroad
ticket, yet strange to relate Truth has
seen a ticket seller compel a person
to do that same thing to validate a
bit of transportation. A man called
at a certain ticket office Monday last
to buy ticket for friend. OF course
the friend wasn't present. When he
had purchased the ticket the agent in
sisted that he sign it. But it is not
for me-" he protested, 1T is for
friend of mine"
Sign his name then" said the
agent.
But it will not be right" protest
ed the purchaser And your con-
ductor has the right, or you claim he
has, to compel every passenger to
identify himself by writing his name
Suppose l sign my friends name and
this action is demanded by your con-
ductor? He will readily see that the
signature is not his, and may cause
trouble"
But in spite of these cogent reasons
that ticket agent compelled the pur.
chaser to sign the other mans name
Now, if it is forgery to write another
mans name on a ticket bought from
broker, what is the matter with its
being forgery to write said name on
an original ticket? Will some one
answer, please? And if the man rid.
