THE BAPID-TBAMSIT BOOTES.
Tin. rapid-transit routes-?unanimously, though
perhaps nul yel finally, adopted by the Com

by citizens whose opinions arc entitled to re

disagree wiili ib?? Commission ar?- ?supported
i?v the high authority >?f ill?* special .'..iiiinitt?'?' i
? if experts appointed to mrik?- an Independent |
Inrestlgatlon of the whole subject. In the ??ther
case a large elemenl ??f the population is begin?
ning to express it?? discontent. The expert?, H
will be ?remembered, after careful study and
close calculation, d??dded to recommend the
Fourth-are., Lafayette Place and Klin st. r?.ui<'.
Instead of ibe Broadway r"ut?-. fr??in Four
teenth-st. to the ? ' i i >? Hall for three reasons
because the c*osl ?voukl l"- nearly W.UOft*W

and congestion "f traffic largely BToraexl. This
advice was weighty, and are take 11 for granted
tii.it ii was not hastily rejected by the ?'??minis

able adrantagea <>f the Broadway route more
Mian offsel the ubJed ion? pointed oui by the
experts. The erenl may Justify their decision,
and in ?my case it is DOl a [Mini a? to which
the general impressions of citizens who bare

The other question to which we bare ref?t?lT?i*d
closely concerns the resident? of the upper Easl
Side, or N??r!li Side as ihey prefer lo call it, and
on 'liis question ibey :ir?- dearly entitled to b*
