the writer makes any claims to
wings, however. Last Thursday
night or early Friday morning
there was a big wreck on the road
and, in CONSCIENCE, all north
bound trains were late. When the
agent arrived at the station at Z
o'clock in the morning the train
dispatcher informed him that No.
20, due here at 1886, would not be
here until ten o'clock; then, later,
one o'clock was named as the hour
of its arrival. In the meantime,
between nine O'Clock and noon,
some three or four belated trains
hurried through here northward-
but they couldn't stop and pick up
passengers at valley stations. No!
No! About noon the announce
ment was made that No. 26 would
be here at three o'clock. A couple
of hours later came another an
nouncement that the train would
be here at 3:45, but would not
stop, and passengers would have
to wait for the train due at 2:11,
which would be about an hour be-
hind No. 26. This, notwithstand-
ing there hadn't been a north
bound train stop in the valley since
2:11 Thursday afternoon.) Final
ly, at 4:30 the 2:11 train came lum-
boring along, and passengers who
first went to the station at seven
o'clock that morning to board a
train, were at last able to get away.
Such indifference and utter disre-
gard of the rights of the public, on
the part of the railroad manage
ment, is simply outrageous, and
does more to hasten government
ownership than the eloquence of
all the Socialist orators in Chris
tendon. The company should be
compelled to give the public def
mite information as to- the time of
the arrival of late trains. Now at
seven o'clock that morning the
train dispatcher was in a position
to know at what time within an
hour, anyway that No. 26 would
arrive at Ironton. Instead of Civ
ing this information to the public,
however, he makes some three or
four different announcements, alter
ing them to suit his whim or fancy,
Notwithstanding this Indifferent
action on his part keeps a number
of passengers at the station all day
long, because of the uncertainty as
to the time the train will arrive.
And this practice is general on the
part of the dispatchers. There
ought to be relief somewhere.
Nothing here stated is intended as
a reflection on Mr.. Downey, u
agent, who is as clever and &C
commodating a young man as can
be found anywhere, and cheerful
ly gives the public all the infor-
nation at his command.
