E. F. Johnston is of the opinion that
the city has been little too severe
with the Erie railroad He says that
it has taken every opportunity to har-
ass the railroad and compel it to do
unnecessary things.
The other day when representatives.
of the Hammond Business Mems asso-
citation went to Chicago to see P. ].
Sherwin. the general manager of the
road. they found him anything but
amicable.
He complained that the railroad had
been compelled to build a concrete
sidewalk on Douglas street on the side
where their machine shops are located
and where pedestrians never go.
In other ways Mr.. Sherwin said that
the city caused the railroad unneces-
sary expense and he did not make anv
effort to conceal the fact that he was
Indignant
He pointed out the fact that the Erie
railroad is paying more taxes than any
of the other roads in Hammond and
yet is given less consideration. Johns
ton says his interview with Sherwin
only goes to show that there are two
sides to every story.
