A Stupid Rule
HIRED automobile* arc not permitted to enter Woo«!land
j»ark. *
The rule applies not only to jitney*. but to taxicabs and
rented cars, a* well. s
If you arc not rich enough to own your own tar, you
mu-t stay out of the paik. or enter it hnmbly, on foot.
Three burly and officious policemen are «>n duty at the
park entrance to enforce the rule.
\<>t only i- it forbidden the man of modest mean* to
"jitney through the park with hi- family ■ a Mindav, but
the stranger in < ut midst nlust ride shank-' marcs in the
park or stay out.
Merc'f the way \-si»t;w>t Supt Fuller i>f the j>ark de
partment explains it:
"It is really a police traffic ordinance. BUT THE PARK
DEPARTMENT DESERVES PART OF THE CREDIT
The department's men and the police sergeant are working
in perfect harmony. We are keeping the park clear of con
gestion by stipulating that all hired automobiles, jitneys and
taxicabs load and unload not closer than SO feet from any
entrance. OUR MEN REPORT THAT THE SCHEME
IS WORKING JUST FINE."
In the opinion «t The Star, this rule i« a stupid blunder,
or a sign of a too tender regard for the feelings of the S.
E. company.,
If Seattle has any right to boast at all, it ha« a right to
boast of its parks. We invite strangers to come to Seattle,
see our parks, and envy.
The parks are supposed to be a lure to potential resi
dents and investor- But the -trangcr in any large city finds
the street car system puzzling and bewildering. Me d>>esn"t
know what car to take to get where he wants to go.
The s\ranger with money and desirous of -ccing the
parks would gladly rent a car and a city-wise chauffeur for
a ride through the parks.
The probable purpose of the rule is to prevent soliciting
by taxicabbicsiand jitney men in the parks But soliciting
can be prevented without making passengers disembark at
the park entrance. ,
ONE Ti l NFY DRIYF.R WAS ESPECIALLY EN
GAGED BY AN INVALID WOMAN' TO DRIVE 11FR
THROUGH WOODLAND PARK. SHE WAS STOPPED
AT THE GATE.
ANOTHER DRIVER. G. T. EDWARDS, WAS TOLD
BY OFFICER NO. 334 THAT HE COULD NOT ENTER
THE PARK WITH HIS JITNEY, EVEN IF HE TOOK
HIS SIGNS OFF THE CAR
The officers on duty at the entrance arc Nos. 354, 404
jind a park policeman. Frequent complaints have come to
The Star from jitney drivers and members of the public
that these officer- are surly, irritable and officiously arbitrary
in their handling of drivers and patron- of the jitneys which
compete with the street cars.
Efficiency and Wooden Legs
GERMAN* efficiency is personified in artificial limbs. Since
the war started 300.0TX) men have lost arm* or legs and
German factories have supplied each with a new, up-to-date
and scientifically constructed limb.
American of limbs rushed their agents
to (iermany at the start of the war, hoping to get business.
They learned that the government had, on the day war
was declared, taken over the eight concern* making surgical
appliances, added to the working forces, and prepared to
provide leg> and arms for all.
The American agetm returned much flabbergasted,
minus orders. One declares the Germans are turning out
the finest and latest device* and giving their mutilated sol
diers limbs almost calculated to make a man want to get a
leg shot off.
The German is reducing efficiency to it* ghastliest degree
The government probably v. ill give iron crosses to the man
who improves the wooden legs as quickly as to one who
leads a charge.
Quo Vadis, William?
WHAT do you know about this? 'Ti* persistently re
ported in Washington that William Jennings Bryan
will be a candidate for United State* senator from Nebraska,
opposed to Gilbert M Hitchcock, whose term expires in
March, l c >l6.
Possibly Mr. Bryan has recognized the fact that the people'
arc not unanimously of the opinion that he is the greatest
cabinct officer ever, and would gracefully surrender his port
folio, but are we also to understand that he has convalesced
from the presidential fever? If that really be so, there in no
better place for Mr. Bryan to spend his remaining years of
j>olitkal activity than in the senate of the United States.
