Isn't it pleasant to ride up from
Lindenwald on the cars and get
transfer to the West Side or East
High street or North Third, and when
you get to Radcliffes corner to see
your car sliding out ahead of you
about three feet and you have to wait
another twelve or fifteen minutes for
the next car Now while it is true
that the company and the whole
blamed line has its faults, yet un-
pleasantries of this kind could be
avoided by the employees themselves.
There is no reason why one car
couldn't wait just a second on another
especially when that car is just .
few feet away invariably there are
passengers to transfer on every car
and if the car employees were to wait
and pick these passengers up we are
sure the riding public would appreci-
ate such accommodation very much.
Think it over, boys. Keep the public
with you no matter how unpleasant
the company tries to make it for all

A $650,o00 bond issue is to be voted
on February 10th, to erect a new cleo
trio light and power plant. This is
one thing that is badly needed in oul
city and should have the support Of
every voter The gas contract runs
out next summer and it is a sure thing
that the new contract will call for 3
much higher rate and of course gas
to the consumers is going to be higher
This means that there is going to be

The Butler County press. [volume] (Hamilton, Ohio) 1900-1946, 1920-01-16

The Journal took quite nasty rap
at Mayor Smith the other night, be-
cause of the stand His Honor has
taken on the question of issuing bonds
for the Lane Free Library. Mayor
Smith doesn't believe it to be good
policy to tack anything on to the cleo
tric light bond proposition to be voted
on February 10th, while the Journal
thinks that the library bonds should
be voted on at the same time. The
mayor is right and the Journal is
wrong. If we are going to tack every
proposed bond issue onto the tail of
! the electric light bonds the load is
going to become too heavy and the
whole plan will fall through. In other
words, the sum total would seem so
huge and large that the voters would
become scared and vote all PROPOSE
tions down. It's not so very long since
we had just such experience, and not
so long that the Journal should have
already forgotten it. Stay with your
stand, Mayor Smith, don't let anyone
stampede you, get the big thing
through first Everyone knows the
needs of the library and everyone al
most to a man will favor doing any
thing that is necessary to bring the
library equipment up to the highest
standard, but let's not take any
chances, let's do one thing at time
and make sure of it. There's been
many a good old wagon overloaded
and all run down.
