Nr1r TYPE 0E STREETCAR.

President Shonts of the Interborough Is look
inc for = new tyne of streetcar lie Is reported
10 he thinking over the sort they have in Mon
treal. where passengers entering cannot get by
the conductor without first paying their fares'
and the sort they have in Minneapolis, where
the motorman by a lever shuts the rear gate US
the car starts, and so keeps passengers from
crowding the last arrival off into the street.
The former would have a certain advantage. for
in the present type of car no matter how
crowded room has always to be left for the
conductor TO make his way among the passen-
gers to collect fares If the conductor would
stay on the rear platform one more person
could be squeezed into the car. The rear gate
would also help to some extent, for persons
spilled off the rear platform Of a crowded car
are often dropped before the conductor has time
TO collect their fares; thus they are irretriev-
ably lost to the company. rear gate which
would hold n man on once he had obtained a
foothold would save many nickel.
But jestng aside, do need n new type Of
streetcar In this city. There isn't shadow Of
doubt regarding 1t. The millions who ride on
the street railroads daily are unanimous about
IT, One Improvement that VIII naturally sug-
gest itself TO the mind Of everybody is car
with plenty Of room up in front" We know
that the uniformed employees OF the INTERIOR
ough constantly assert IN loud, insstent tones
that the present type of ears has plenty OF
room up in front" but from long experience we
are convinced that this room Is mythical When
you get up In 'front.' you find that the room
is not there; n hundred other persons have got
there ahead OF you, have filed ii up and turn
upon you sayagely rs an intruder. No. II cannot
truly be said, though 1t is often. indeed falsely
said of the Interborough's cars that there Is
plenty Of room up in front" 1t may be as
serted of life that there IS plenty Of room at
the top" II is too hard getting there 10 find
out, but no such difficulty attends the contradlc-
ton of the current assertion about the Inter
boroughs cars. Bother the nickel saving de
vices, Mr.. Shonts What we want Is cars with
plenty Of room up In front" Please get them.

THE PUBLIC LAND CONVENTION

The Public Land Convention, which just met
in Denver. discussed one OF the most important
questions before the nation to-day but one in
which little popular interest is felt anywhere
except in the West, and there the feeling is sec
tiOnal opposed to national. The convention
represented the Western sentiment, for most
of its delegates were from the Western states
Its opposition to the administrations policy In
dealing with the public land TO be expected.
The reason for this opposition is that the i'm
c7ediate interest Of the Western states and the
interests Of the nation are not in harmony. Those
states feel that the public domain should be
used, no matter how. for their upbuilding ANY
policy toward the public lands that stimulates
their prompt development the Western states
incline 10 favor Any policy that takes a larger
view or the rights and interests of the people
as whole in that domain they incline TO resist.
