Commuter Complaints About Traction Transfers
F P Doty of Scranton protests the Traction Company transfer system in The Tribune. He cites lack of shelter and delays for riders including women and children, especially in bad weather, and argues transfers were manipulated by clerks. He calls for an end to the alleged injustices and asks fair treatment for patrons.
Edictor questions three cent fare and transfers change
Letter to The Tribune asks why Traction Co does not implement a three cent fare and abolish transfers. The writer believes the move would boost ridership and prevent cheating on the line. A public notice includes a Mystic Cure claim for rheumatism and neuralgia with a 76 cent price and druggist Carl Lorenz listing.
