Auto Speeding Comes to Grief On Tuesday of this week, on com plaint of Stanley Goc, a line of $5 and costs were assessed against Otto Hen ning for exceeding the speed limit on our streets in driving his auto. This is the first case that lias come before County Judge Smith since the wholesale drag net was used some months ago, in which some half dozen of our auto drivers made contributions for the same offense. The complaint this time was not made at the in stance of the peace officers, but by one of the gentlemen, who was among the first contributors to the auto speed ing fund. While Mr. Henning ad mits he might possibly have been ex ceeding the limit allowed by law, he spoke a volume of truth when he in cidentally remarked there were others doing the same thing. While that is undoubtedly true, it is necessary for complaint to be made before action can be taken by the proper tribunal. In the other cases, complaint was made by officers of the law. In this case, complaint was made by an auto owner who, himself, had felt the force of the law against such violation. That the law is violated as a rule, rather than as an exception; there is no doubt, but there is even then some excuse for its violation. Very few autos are equipped with speedometers, and very few auto drivers realize how slow they must necessarily go to stay within the prescribed limit. Those who are in the habit of riding in autos w ill bear us out in the above as sertion. Then another thing. In al most every neighboring town and hamlet are to be found warning sig nals In the outskirts, giving the limit at which autos must speed within the limits of said city, town or hamlet. Such sign boards of warning have the effect of being a continual reminder, and as such have a splendid effect. This Loup City has failed to do. VVe call attention of our city council to this in the hopes that they may remedy that defect, believing it will have much bearing on future speed ing within the city limits. Bill’s Hard Luck Jack: Hello, Bill. How are you? How are your crops? Bill: Haven’t got much since that hail storm we had last week. Jack: You don’t mean to tell me that you were hailed out? Bill: Well, I might just as well have been cleaned as the way tilings look now. It sure hit me hard, and I had prospects fora bump er crop. You know, Jack, I’m renting, but I had hopes that I could buy a little piece of my own, and so much depend ed on a good crop this season. I had a chance to buy a forty on easy terms and if I got a crop ijt would go quite a ways to help me get a start. Jack: Didn’t you have yourgrain in sured? I had all of mine in sured and the insurance man was out to see me yesterday and, believe me, he treated me great. Bill: What Company insured your crop? Jack: Why, the St. Paul Fire and Marine. They have been writ ing hail insurance around here for years. I get a policy with them every year. Bill: That’s the same Compauy that wanted to insure my crop, but I told the agent I was too busy to talk insurance. Gee, I wish 1 had taken out a policy to cover at least my interest in the crop.

New Stallion Law The new Stallion Registration law is practically a re-enactment of the law of 1911 excepting that it names as the Registration Board the Gov rnor, State Treasurer and Commis sioner of Public Lands and Buildings. These are all executive officers as named in the Constitution and curee the defect in the old law as found by the Supreme Court. The new law provides that all 1913 inspections made and certificates issued by the old Board are hereby legalized. In the office at Lincoln are many affidavits of inspections made, from which the certificates can be issued as soon as the three dollars fee ij for warded by the owners. A new lien law was also passed which should be satisfactory to all stallioners, but if the stallion owner does not secure and post his stallion certificate as provided by law it is doubtful if any service fee can be collected by those not conforming with the laws of the state.

Fred Odendahl Arcadia Man Game Near Getting His According to the Independent, an Arcadia man came within an ace of death of serious injury at Grand Is land a few days ago. J. W. Wilson, a farmer from Arcadia, who went down there to purchase some horses saw a young man swing from the train at the factory while the train was going to the sales stables, and Mr. Wilson, j who is an elderly man. thought he could safely do the same. However, in jumping he fell backward, one foot coming so near going on the rails as to cause the loss of the heel of his shoe and make a slight abrasion of the skin. He also received a cut on his head about five inches long and his body was quite badly shaken up.
