AUTOS WH|z
! by TOO FAST
COLLEGE PLACE PEOPLE DO NOT
LIKE PACE OF GAsoLENE
CARTS.
Will Endeavor to See IF There Is Not
Some Way of Regulating Speed
Under the Law.

Considerable complaint Is being
made by residents of College Place be-
cause of the high rate of speed MAIN
tained by devil carts, more familiarly
known as automobiles, and those who
live in the college town are seeking
some measure Of relief. They say the
speed buggies come down the pike at
an alarming rate of quickness, and
make no pretense of slackening pace
when entering the town. Life Is in
constant danger unless surrounded by
a birb wire fence, and care has to be
taken in crossing the main macada-
mized thorughfare.
In speaking of the devil wagon speed
this morning, one of the leading prop
erty owners of College Place said:
'sThe people are becoming much con-
cerned about the high speed at which
the gasoline carts buzz through the
city. and are wondering if such a rate
of speed is permitted by law. 1t has
become quite a nuisance and me-
mace to life. and all agree that some
thing must be done to prevent chauf-
feurs from using the streets Of the
town for race course. Constable
vanAusdle with his star seems to be
without authority in that particular
ouestion,, but the state law is to be
locked up and some steps taken i'm
mediately. College Place has an au-
tonobile road, but that should be no
excuse for such a high rate of speed
Others Are Complaining.
That many autoists do not observe
the provisions Of the state law, per-
mitting a speed of "a miles an hour
outside of any city, is the statement
of many farmers who have occasion to
hack their team into telephone pole
to give the benzine chug buggies the
right way. In the city frequent
complaints are made, and unless the
abuse of the speed limits does not
cease the Waa1a Walla court room
NAV take on the appearance of the
one in Yakima few days ago, wnen
half a dozen gas cart drivers were
mt on the carpet for violating the
speed limit.

With the weather at it's best, every

scholastic track meet tomorrow and
Friday on Ankeny field, under the aus
pices of Whitman college. Already the

andjenthusiasts are sizing up the like
Unlocking men and talk of dark horses
in each team is heard everywhere. The
Oregon, Idaho and Whitman county
teams arrived today and others are ex-
pected tonight. Great interest is CEN
tered in the sprints, as there are sew
eral men who claim records of close
to 10 seconds in the 100-yard dash and
good time in the other dashes. Cole
of Ellensburg high, comes touted as
fast man, having done the so yards
in nrecord time and the 100 in 10 1-5.
The big event will be ushered in by
a monster auto parade at II o'clock
tomorrow morning, when all of the
contestants will be shown the city in
automobiles This will be followed by
a procession Of carriages headed by the
big tally-hO in which all of the dec
lamatiOn contestants will be seated. 1t
is expected that this will be the great
est exhibition of autos ever seen in the
city as practically all of the available
machines will be pressed into service
On the day of the finals all of the bust
ness houses in the city have agreed to
close in order that they may attend the
meet and preparations are being made
to accommodate the largest crowd ever
attending meet here. The interest of
the Wala Walla people is greater than
ever before, owing to the fact that the
local high school has a number of
c2SsT athletes who will no doubt make
themselves known in the final score.

Remit License.

Members of the finance committee
of the city council met in the coun-
Gil chambers this afternoon, together
with a number of members or the
Elks lodge, and discussed the question
of remitting the license of the Norris
& Rowe circus to be here under the
auspices of the lodge next Saturday.
Councilmen Bachtold and Whlteman
voted in favor OF remitting the license,
while Councilman F. S. Hull opposed
such action on the grounds that IL
would establish bad precedent.
