AUTOMOBILES
A Few Words From a Man Who
Don't Like Them.

One of our rural friends whose
horse got frightened at an automobile
said to a Palladium reporter:
On Thursday night a great big red
devil automobile passed over our
highway a-fzzin' and a-tootin'. 1t
had two big bull 's-eye headlights, and
was loaded with women, who were
a-gabbin'. The whole thing was
" skeary' to man and beast, and had
the appearance of just comm from
the regions internal. Apropos-a
man said the automobile had just as
good a right to the highways as any
other vehicle. This proposition is We
hemently denied by all our citizens.
Why not allow c., c. & L. train to
swithch off and go thunderin' down
north D street. The franchise for pub
lick highways was given for the use
of men, women and children, who
could ride or drive horses in safety,
and not for red devils or blue devils
that scare horses to death. a trolley
car can't pass our castle without a
special franchise, and they are not
half so wicked and dangerous as the
auto. Two horses have been scared to
death in our county. Women are
afraid to start to tow to trade. We
read of autos BLOWN up. burnin' up,
KILN and cripplin' people continu-
ally, and of many smart Alecs who
have no more respect for the rights
of rural people than they do for ''yal-
ler' logs. AMI their machines are
not a necessity Of the age by any
means. They are usually owned by
plutocrats and autocrats who want to
swell. A vote of the people
would not allow an automobile on the
roads, and the vote would be unani-
nous or nearly so. "Vox populi, vox
Del One man said he carried a gun
and if some blankety blank machine
