Must Register.

The new law enacted by the state
legislature for the regulation Of motor
vehicles requires the owners of such
vehicles to register them with the
secretary OF state, who will issue
official numbers for the same. Tie
numbers are to be IN figures not less
than three inches in height with
strokes not less than a half inch in
width.
The registration fee is 81. The law
provides maximum speed limit Of
twenty miles an hour on country
highways, with varying speed Of
from ten to fifteen miles an hour in
the cities and towns. Under the
provisions of the new law, the owner
of motor vehicle, when on high
way, is required to stop his machine
when signaled to do 50 by the owner
of any horse which is frightened by
the motor, and, in case of such a
request being made, must assist the
owner OF the animal in controlling 1T.
As compensation for these restric-
tions. any restrictive ordinances or
regulations locally for the control OF
motor vehicles are repealed, and any
local control other than that pro-
vided In the new state law is prohib-
tied. Thus city and town ordinances
4 for the regulation OF motor vehicles
must closely follow the provisions OF
the state law in this respect.

FEW CONCLUDING WORDS ABOUT

BY E. NJ. CARR.

Guati,motzin, or Cuauhtemoc, the
nephew Of Montezuma, and the last
Aztec king, is the most distinguished
character in the ancient history of
Mexico. 1t is asserted by some
historians that he fired the fatal
arrow which killed his distinguished
uncle, and even if he did it would
not, in the estimation Of the Aztecs
or their descendants, detracs in the
least from his fame. 1t was Mon
tezuma's friendship for the
Spaniards which gave Cortez his
first advantage, and the day after
Montezuma died every Spaniard was
either killed or driven out of the
city OF Mexico. The Aztecs were a
fierce and brutal race. Their civil
lization was borrowed from the
Toltecs and never improved upon
1t was like good graft upon q
vicious stock. The Aztec empire
did not fall before its time, but the
heroism of Cuauhtemoc, in his de

Cortez returned to the Valley o

With winters everlasting SHOWS

feet, may the grand old capital con-

forth as Pelee did, and with their
fiery breath and Titan power lay
waste the city and the plain.
