THE NEW TROLLEY SITUATION
The Company's New Schedule Causes
Much Dissatisfaction
A new schedulé went into effect
on the local trolley line last Thurs-
day which is not satisfactory to the
patrons here, much less our borough
Council,
About six months ago, when the
company was given permission to!
enter the bcrongh, a clanse which is
embodied in their ordinance states
that cars shall be run between Lan-
caster and Mount Jcy at intervals!

According to the new
which appears in another column,
cars are run every hour and twenty
minutes.

All the members were present ex-
cept Mr. Mumma. Upon motion of
Mr. Brown the Clerk was instructed
to notify the presidents of the Con-

Robrerstown, Landisville, and Mt.
Joy Street Railway Co. calling their
a‘'tention to Sections 4 and 11 of
the ordinance,
The clerk notified the presidents
this a. m. and it is quite likely that
the company will be heard from
Soon.
A Bulletin representative in con-
versation with trolley officials was
told that if requested by the
ough, the company will quite like-
bor—
ly return to the hour schedule by
putting an express car on the local
line or abolishing some of the stops
between here and the county seat.
The patrons here eagerly await
the ccmpany’s action.
How's This Mr. Smart ?
Some months ago when this paper
made mention of the fact that the
P. R. R. was arranging to run elec
tric cars on its lives, a certain edi-
tor of a little country weekly got
funny about it, Now the Philadel
phia, Harri: burg and Lancaster dai
lies are coming out with statements
from P. R. R. headquarters with in-
formation exactly as the ¢Bulletin”
gave its readers wecks ago. Follow
