of the right of franchise, but my ques-
ton has no reference to this class.
I am speaking of that great army OF
faithful toilers in the stores and busi-
ness places and at the homes who seek
relaxation through the medium of. a
newspaper when the days work is
done.
If you find yourself unable to answer
my question, Mr.. Editor, would it be
asking too much to nave you grant to
the ladies the privilege of your columns

To the Editor of the Star:
Sir-The Mathews matter is no
longer debatable. What now remains
for discussion? Shall WI take up the
Murphy letters? They would be in
teresting. but COMMUNICATION would
have to be tempered with criticism.
Besides, they present problems wholly
political, and for that reason must give
place to matters of more general con-
Germ.
To my mind the matter pressing most
urgently for solution is the street rail-
way problem in this city. Since the
introduction of the new type of car the
Public Service Corporation has been
benefited enormously, but the burden
of the public has Increased. The COM
pany is receiving increased revenue
the people increased suffering and in

To the Editor of the Star:
Dear Sir-May | ask you to settle
for me and others a matter relating to
the fair sex? l have had years of
mountaineering with femininity, but
with no settled conviction at any time

bewildering paradox of loneliness per-

This brings me gracefully to my
question, namely, what, in your 1udg-
ment, do the ladies find to attract them
most in the daily journals? All the
leading papers now carry magazine
pages, with hi~gh-salaried writers and
artists doing their utmost to provide
instruction and entertainment for the
women. 1t is asserted by many news

pages and the advertised bargains the
average woman has no interest. |

you may pay your fare to the company
while gazing complacently through the
grating at the ffailer humanity wait
ing patiently outside for strenuosity to
subside.
1 am not asserting that the Public
Service is poorly managed. Indeed, in
many respects its management is to.
be complimented. 1t provides an
equipment equal to that in usesin n
city in the country, and maintains d
schedule reasonably sufficient for or
binary conditions. But ordinary con-
ditions do not prevail between the
hours mentioned. In fair weather, If
one possesses sufficient patience, he
may gain access to a car, but in stormy
weather, when the days toll is ended
and the need for transportation Is
greatest, it is far safer for the frail
man n the delicate woman to brave
the rigors of the storm than to, trust
life or limb within the surging mass of
humanity battling for passage home
ward.
How is this condition to be relieved?
The Public Service management does
not know, for if it did it would hasten
to bring relief to a suffering public
whose contributions maintain the
splendor of such management. No, the
suggestion must come from some other
source. Is the relief to be found in
"trailers?" With this plan in force on
the principal lines, would it not be pos
sible to get home intact and in fairly
good time? This is a matter that is
close to my heart, Mr.. Editor, and it
would please me nightly were o to
throw toward its solution the powerful
assistance of your enterprising paper.
Very truly yours. J. NJ. ;

States senatorship. In his supplementary statement today Mr..
Murphy does not qualify anything previously said. He simply
takes occasion to disavow the motives read in that statement and
repeats again his disbelief in the new primary law. This second
utterance lacks the picturesque, abrupt and somewhat startling
interest of the first, but, like that statement, it means business, as
the sequel will show.
