City council urged to compel Seattle Electric to raise streetcar service
City election coverage centers on pledges by municipal ownership candidates to force an ordinance within 100 days requiring the Seattle Electric Co to boost morning and evening streetcar intervals by at least 90 percent. Republicans are asked to sign similar commitments as The Star traces past pledge records and notes a prior Green Lake line adjustment. DOPE FIEND DIES. A negro dope fiend was found dead in a shack near First Ave at four this morning. The body was taken to the Be ney-Watson morgue with no identifying details available. The faded shanty occupant, nicknamed Jane and "just HL," left little clue to the deceased’s identity.
