THE "TIPPING" SYSTEM.
Nuisance to
Which
the Traveling
Should Cease.
Public
A bill has been introduced in the legis
lature to prohibit the lowering of upper
berths on sleeping cars when the lower
berth is occupied and the upper one is
not. The bill further says tht all lower
berths must be disposed of before corre
sponding upper berths shall be sold. A
fine of $500 dollars is to be the penalty if
the bill becomes a law.
Every traveler who has the extreme
pleasure of spending a night in the com
modious quarters of a sleeping car will
say "Amen" to this bill. However, it j
wuuia nave oeen well had a bill been
introduced prohibiting the "tipping"
system, now so extensively carried on,
and compelling the railroad companies
to pay their employes sufficient wages to
prevent the necessity of feeing sleeping
car porters and dining car waiters as
much as the fare amounts to in order to
obtain accommodations which should
be includeu when the railroad fare has
been paid.
So annoying is this practice becoming
that even the merest conveniences can
not be secured without the afnrpsnirl
"tip," and theBe brunettes will fairly
block the aisle as a traveler attempts to
leave the train unless in his every-wait-ing
"paw" has been dropped the neces
sary passport.
In a hotel ordiningear, where eeventy
five tents has already been paid as the
price of a meal, the hucgry tourist will
sit until the train leaves, wondering why
he is not served, when be has been so
amies in the laws of ettlqnette as to fail
in depositing another seyenty-five with
1 . .0 i .. .
iue -uarK-eyeu waiter wuo Btands for a
few moments in exDectancv.
If this nuisance to the traveline nublic
is continued, people who can barely af
ford to pay railroad fare will be
pelled to remain at home, or watch their
chance and walk the ties, where no
doubt will be found "tips" of a more
serious nature if passing trains are not
avoided.
rsut tis not only an annoyance to
those who are not able to assist the rail
road company in paying their porters,
for tis not so much the pittance (al
though it has ceased to be a mere
pittance) which is expected that is ob
jected to, but the audacity which is dis
played by these legalized beggars, who
so persistently remind one of their pres
ence. The U. S. Assistant
Sec'y of Agriculture says
