the two lines would accept each others
transfers. but so far they refuse to do
so and as a result ten-cent fare pre-

Plan "Get-ToGether', Meet.
At the Saturday night meeting it was
arranged to invite representatives Of
both traction companies and members
Of the city council to confer with the
Ridgers at the city hall courtroom. An
effort will be made to get both lines
together on nickel fare universal
transfers, etc. Seaman will also be
asked to give a satisfactory operating
schedule.
Now in case neither line comes to
terms the association will then ask the
city council to grant a new franchise
to members of the association. The
tentative route is down Washington
street from Fourth to Forty fifth ave-
nues. thence east to Broadway. From
this point the county commissioners
will be asked to grant another one to
Merrillville and possibly to Crown
Point. In fact. not long ago some Tur-
key Creek farmers asked similar
franchise OF the commissioners and
their request is still pending.

Enough indignant citizens gathered
at Engleharts hall. Ridge road and
Broadway, in Gary. Sunday morning to
start a smali-sized revolution. The oc-
casion was to denounce the traction
service afforded or rather not afforded,
by the Gary & Southern Traction COM
pany. 1t appears that this line, which
was promoted by Halleck w. Seaman,
starts TO operate Its cars just after the
men have gone TO work and quits oper-
ating them just before they come home
from the mills. Because of this un-
usual procedure Ridge road employees
of the steel mills have to walk to and
from Calumet bridge. where they catch
the Gary & Interurban cars, which run
TO the steel mills. 1t is because of this
service that the Ridge readers are
kicking and it is why they held an in
dignation meeting Saturday night.

Attorney r. E. Houren presided over

association.
