ENFORCE THE ORDINANCES

Would it not be the part of economy
for the city authorities to enforce the
law against fast driving, especially
around corners, of vehicles and against
the speeding of automobiles on the
principal streets before some one is Sc
mulcted in damages? These ordi-
nances are violated daily. This is es-
pecially noticeable at the corner of
Front and Princess streets, where
there is generally Il larger crowd than
at any other intersection of streets.
People crossing the streets and passing
from one trolley car to another at this
point are constantly in danger of in
jury by horses being driven over the
intersection of the streets at q speed
faster than a walk. The Messenger
has more han One called the attention
of the city authorities to the repeated
violation of this ordinance and also to
the ignoring of the law against speed
ing of automobiles; still, nothing is
done to put Il stop to either. When
some person is badly injured or killed
by a racing automobile or Il vehicle
swiftly turning Il corner there will be
a great Outcry and Il show of indigna-
ton by the public and orders will be
issued for strict enforcement of the
ordinances, but it will be too late to
the city from Il suit for damages. The
municipal authorities and the mem
bers of the police force know that these
dangerous practices, in violation Of the
city ordinances, are being INDUCED in.
This would make the city morally, if
not legally responsible for an injury
from this Ource to any one.
