Speed Of Automobiles

The ranchers of Lamoille valley com
plain OF the excessive speed of automo-
biles OH the road from Elko to the
Crossroads. Ranch horses are fright
ened by the automobiles and in several
instances serious accidents have been
narrowly averted.
While there is no law regulating the
speed of automobiles Oh the streets or
public roads, the owners or drivers of
these machines should not drive them
OH the streets or roads at the rate of 80
or 40 miles an hour The writer has
heard Of the trip from Elko to the
Lamoille crossroads being made III half
an hour. This is not only dangerous
to those in the machine, but is exceed
ingly so to the rancher who is driving
on the public road
The next Legislature should pass q
stringent law, limiting the rate of
speed and providing heavy penalties for
its violation. The ranchers and citi-
zens generally should petition the legis-
lature to pass such law and when
once passed they should see that it is
enforced.

Gruesone Find Made In Cave Valley

E. L. Robertson, of Cave valley. ar
rived in Ely yesterday. Mr.. Robertson
has large ranch just over the county
line in Linclp county and is engaged in
mining in what is known as the Patter-
SON district, There are several good
prospects in the vicinity of his ranch
which he is engaged in developing and
there arc several prominent Elyites
interested in the properties. While
prospecting in the mountains back of
the ranch Mr.. Robertson discovered
what appears to be the petrified body of
a woman. Judging from the appear
ance of the bones the body may be
hundreds of years old. Preserved as it
was it would take an expert to deter
mine the number of years that it has
been deposited in the mountain from
which it was taken. The locality in
which the body was found is noted for
the number of petrified trees and other
objects that have been discovered there
and is a field for research which has
been frequently visited by those inter-
ested in such specimens.

Veteran saloon and it will be shipped to
the Smithsonian Institute in Washing
