Upon complaint OF J. c. Anthony,
Chief OF Police Lev. Cornwell filed
an affidavit Saturday evening
against II. VI. Overmaier, of To-
do, charging him with exceeding
the city speed limit. Overmaier
was ALLEGED to have passed down the
state street Hill at a speed not be-
,oming to himself or conforming
with city laws.
When arraigned before Mayor
Scherff Saturday evening, Overmaier
pleaded not guilty to the charge. He
had witness, M. Q. Chase, with
him in the auto and both swore
that the speedometer showed rate
OF only fifteen miles an hour when
they passed down State street. Owing
to the fact that Mr.. Anthony was
the only witness and that there were
two on the defense. the Mayor found
II necessary to dismiss the case for
lack OF evidence.
Since Mr.. Anthonys complaint,
the police have determined to be
more strict in enforcing the speed
ordinance. Any auto driver caught
racing his machine through the
streets at dangerous speed will be
arrested and fined. No leniency
whatever viii be shown in the future.
The police have also determined
70 put Ian on the high speed prac-
tice Of the motor cycle riders. These
machines are becoming quite num-
erous in the city and the police find
Il necessary to restrict their danger
Gus speed The speed ordinance per-
mits rate of only eight miles an
hour in he BUSINESS districts and
fifteen in the residential section. If
auto drivers and motor cycle riders
wish to test the speed capacity Of
their machines, they will be com
