Do you know that Seattle has a 4cent street car fare? it ig @ fact, but it ie not very widely advertised, for Jake Furth would rather have 5 than 4 cents for a car ride. A few members of the city council want to make the 4cent fare more popul: For thie purpose Councilman Erickson had an ordinance drawn up compelling the Seattie Electric company to have tickets for sale on the ears and to have signe posted advertising thie fact. But Erickson was sent to jail for speaking in the interest of the people at Dreamland rink that memorable Friday night. Ho was pre- vented from introducing his bill the next Monday. Councilman Griffiths took up the work where Erickson had left it when the doors of the county jail closed behind him. The bill was introduced under Griffiths’ name.
