Show THE PLATFORM One of the biggest nuisances to the traveling public Salt Lake is the street car platform It appears that the street car company do not have any rules governing the platforms of their if they have any they are not The Sixth and Ninth Avenue cars have very narrow and yet every night and morning six or eight men or overgrown boys crowd on to those little entirely blocking the when there are plenty of vacant seats or at least plenty of room in the In other cities no one is allowed on the platform when there is standing room On the Sixth Avenue car on Tuesday of this week a plug brutal man got on the outside of the front platform nd entirely blocked the although there was plenty of room inside the The conductor in a very polite way asked the man to get inside of the but instead of heeding the conductor's request the big brute insulted but kept his com passengers to walk to the rear of the car before they could The big brute laughed and leered at his coarse The conductor did not have sand enough to make the big bully although some of the passengers offered to assist On Saturday morning a gentleman and two strangers in our attempted to get on to a Sixth Avenue car at B street and Fourth There were six men and boys on the front besides the although there were ten vacant seats in one of those six platform hogs offered to move one step to let strangers although the gentleman with the ladies requested them The gentleman and the two ladies had to walk to the rear end of the car before they could Not only but when at last they did get into the car and seated some of the front platform looked back and gave the laugh at what they thought was a cute I would advise the superintendent of the Utah Light and Railway company to try to get on to a Sixth or Ninth Avenue car in front of drug store between 5 and p. m. on any week He will find both platforms so badly crowded with men and boys that no one can get into the although there may be plenty of room The conductors and motormen are dead on their feet in regard to the and do not seem to care whether people get on or off in some of the platform hogs are deadhead motormen and conductors' going to and from their The Utah Light and Railway company improving the road bed and avoiding useless putting on more and better and are doing much to accommodate and make comfortable their and they should see to it at once that the platform hog should either get into the car out of the or get They should not let a few rowdies put a ban on the whole street car Through the lack of school children in New York City do not have the benefit of full school In many of the buildings two sessions are held |
