Show KEEP 'TO THE RIGHT Editor Tribune: The criticism in Tuesday's Tues-day's Tribune of the people who don't keep to the right was certainly just and well deserved by the aforesaid people. For truly there Ic less courtesy shown on the street by people of Salt Lake than in any town I have ever seen, hoard tell of or read about; loss even than' on the crowded streets of New York or Chicago. Even the policemen, who should set an example to other citizens, don't keep to the right on street crossings. ' ICeep to the right" Is a time-honored and long-established custom among civilized civ-ilized people which ought to be observed here in Salt Lake City. The Tribune might have continued its remarks a little further and mentioned those people, men and women, who como tluee and four abreast and never make the least effort to double up when they meet a lone passenger coming from tho opposite direction, and when he the. lono pansenger stands his ground on the extreme ex-treme edge of the sidewalk, rather than be crowded off Into the mud, the three or four will run right over him and turn and stare at him, and make remarks about him, as if he was guilty of the grossest Impoliteness, and not themselves. The three or four walking abreast are Just as liable to crowd a lady as a man off the sidewalk. Such conduct by such people (the three or four, as well as all who don't keep to the right), shows that they have utile regard for the feelings of their fellowmen and women. Give them some more. Mr. Editor. PROSPERO. |
