proceeded TO give protection TO the street
car company, which hauls people from
the depot to the town. a mile distant. the
automobile being a competitor Of the cleo

ting tax Of 500 on the automobile. The
mayor at once vetoed the ordinance.
The council then passed another ordi-
nance. regulating the horseless buggy and
fixing the license tax at $500. The mayor
again used the power vested IN him and
vetoed this ordinance.
Mr. Crockett declares that II the council
passes the high-license ordinance over the
mayors veto he will appeal TO the courts,
and that he will not be deprived Of
operating his automobile by any such
legislation. In the meantime automobile
parties and Joy rides are the chief amuse-

When found. the old man in addition to
suffering from the effects Of the drug
