Te this wa and fle the ae HOW TO GET MORE CARS The best wishes of the street car riding public goes out to the citizens of Ballard and that neighborhood in their efforts to get enough cars to eliminate torturing features of the daily trips they are forced to make. The service furnished this section of the city would be a matter for humor, if it were ficient and uncomfort not so pair y inef a | Until recently this condition has been attributed to sheer} corporation malice on the part of Mr. Furth and his associates, | but the recent disclosures of how carefully the corporation's} books are not experted, leads to the belief that after all it may| be ny ng more censurable than plain stupidity A concern that cannot think often enough to have an expert look into its | books once in six months, can hardly be expected to notice the 1 lack of a half a dozen cars on a certain line. Viewing the situation from a purely view, the Seattle Electric company is losing money by crowd ing people into cars in the morning and night hours in the manner that is practited on the Ballard lines. Ask any con ductor in confidence to tell you how many passengers in | packed car go through without paying their fare. A zealous} conductor with the interests of the company keenly at heart, | S-cent-fare point of if you can conceive of this, could not possibly get all the fares} on these human hay balers. And the sternest of could hardly find fault with a man or woman for not forcing a nickel into the coffers of a company which doesn’t give a rap for the comfort, health or convenience of its patrons. } The amount of money the street car company could collect by having additional cars would probably pay for the extra} expense entailed. But you never could convince the officials of this. They have their little sets of excuses, their whys and wherefores, ali nicely tabulated, showing you where all the blame lies with the public, for wanting to travel at the same time. On the whole, it is not improbable that we have an un- charitable way of considering the acts of corporations, and laying to greed and downright cussedness what in reality is} only the result of ignorance, aided and abetted by an unfortu nate disposition. | Probably the best method for the Ballard victims to fol-| low would be something along these lines Let every man, woman or child who rides home or down} to work during the rush hours, and is overlooked by the con ductor, get together on a certain day, and march in a body to Mr. Furth’s office. There let each one of them deposit a nickel, heads up, on Mr. Furth’s desk. and, having something concrete in the shape of five-ceut picces, perhaps the head of the street railway company may have an incentive to put on a car or two. } But otherwise of results, from logie, reason, supplication | or threats, we have little hope. moralists Let a teller add up the amount, By subtracting what the campaign managers are getting now, from what they got four years ago, you may get @ fairly accurate idea of the amount the trusts went down into their bank rolls for.
