AN ARBITRARY STREET CAR RULE.
Editor Providence News:
\ case of arbitrary rule Of the system
Of electric car service in his city was
demonstrated by an incident which oc-
CURED on the Dyer avenue and Swan
Point line the other afternoon. II was
nearly 6 O'Clock and. OF course. dark. Two
young ladies were riding alone i'm an cleo
trio automobile. and just at the end of
the Dyer avenue and Swan Point car lire
the electricity gave out in their machine.
The young ladies' destination was the
other side OF the city. They had a small
dog with them. a puppy that wouldn't
weigh over seven pounds. They appealed
TO the car conductor, explaining their
predicament, and asked TO be allowed TO
ride on the car. The rule OF not allow
ing dogs on the street cars is a very good
one and universally approved; but don't
you think that In q case like this. and the
conductor understood the plight, he
hould have the privilege of using dis
erection?
He positively refused 10 allow them TO
ride with the dog and suggested that
they leave him out there and come for
him the next day. | suppose he thought
a valuable pet dog could be tied 10 n
gravestone and left there all night.
IL the young ladies' had not taken mat
tiers into their wi hands. and one Of
them hid the small offender under her
coat and boarded the very same car
further along. they would have been
obliged To walk all that way in the dark
along that lonely road.
The company gives the permits cheer
fully when asked for them. and dogs
much larger ride on the cars every day.
why in n predicament like this wouldn't
the conductor use a little common sense.
or IL the company SO arbitrary that he
would not dare do the only right and
proper thing?

THE SITUATION AT FALL RIVER.

Many thousands OF workers i'll this section OF the country will
watch developments at Fall River with great interest. 1t would be
a bad time, SO far as weather conditions are concerned, for a strike
in the cotton industry, Those in a position to best understand the
situation are OF opinion that the manufacturers were not in their
hrst offer as generous as they might have been. Some there are,
however, who believe that in the long run the offer Of the greater
Borden.
However. the plain duty Of all persons concerned is to make
every effort to compromise and to avert precipnatng a period of
idleness when winter is almost at the door. If there is a strike now
the indications are that before another agreement be reached both
the mill agents and the operatives will suffer, the latter OF course
the most. The one thing strongly in the favor of the operatives is the
need OF mill hands in many sections OF New England. Again Fall
River may, if there is another struggle such as the last one, lose some
of her best operatives. The task OF arranging a compromise is worthy
OF the best efforts OF prominent business men in the City of
Spindes.
