If the Northwestern railroad com.
pany cannot afford a platform long
enough for the people to step off on,
instead OF having to jump down three
OF four feet on a siding bank from the
passenger coach in the dark and be-
come liable to tumble head over heels,
they should instruct the conductors of
passenger trains to stop the coaches
from which passengers have to alight
alongside the platform. Our passen-
ger trains, both in morning and at
night, arrive here when it is dark. and
to climb out of the coach several rods
from the depot on a siding bank in
the darkness is not only uncomfort-
able but dangerous.
