In the line OF automobiles there has
been great advance in Washington
during the past year, both in regard to
the number OF new enthusiasts as well
as the enthusiasm manifested
Il Is estimated that there are upward
Of 1850 machines now in the city, as
compared with 800 year ago. This is
attributed to the rapid strides OF the
automobile houses in enlightening the
public concerning the comparative
cheapness of machines. as well as the
discovery of many that an auto is no
more trouble than having a lame horse
or two in he stable. Moreover. many q
business man has come to the belief
that riding in an auto saves time and
worry. and allows a better exercise Of
| the calculating, reasoning. or money
making faculties.
But the greatest impetus TO the au-
tomobile industry or whatever 1t may
be termed was undoubtedly the forma-
tion Of the Washington Automobile
Club. which budded forth in September
and was in full bloom on October g.
A cheerful club room was selected at
the Colotiai Hotel. where the members
are served lunch at club rates, and Il

I ficers Of the club are generally in evil
dence. showing the interest they take
in its success. They are: w. S. Duvau,
president; Leroy Mark, secretary, II B.
Stillman. treasurer, and Robert B. Cav
! erly captain.
The club has about 12O members, and
was organized for the following avowed
purposes:
! !. To cooperate In securing legisla-
/ ton and ordinances consistent with the
use OF motor pleasure vehicles.
> To protect the interest OF auto
owners against unjust and unreason-
able legislation.
| 3. To assist in securing proper pun
lshment of those who violate the laws
regulating the use OF highways. streets
and parks.
A. To promote and encourage the con-
struction and maintenance of good
roads.
This city being one well adapted to
automobiles. the outlook for the coming
year is very bright.
While the club has not been in ex-
istence long, il has already made its
voice heard. The Commissioners have
promised the members. it is said, to
consult the club before any new regu-
| lations are put into effect regarding
! the speed Of running autos. IL has
been suggested to the Commissioners
| that any rule regulating one speed for
| all occasions would be impracticable
and unwise. While a speed of -four
miles around corners in the country
would be considered unnecessarily
harsh on the automobilists, such a
