The POLICE AND THE AUTOMO.
RHE

From the legal Interpretation OF
the ordinance by Judge l.. C. Blan-
chard applying to the automobiles,
it would be senseless to waste time
in filing complaints against the lndl-
vidual who disregards the law with
impunity.
There is a fixed limit of propelling
an auto which when exceeded be-
GENES violation of the law. To
each auto there is affixed number
from which is known the owner OF
the machine, and by this number
the police direct their affidavit
against the owner of the machine
being speeded in contravention OF
law. If the owner of the auto has not
been the transgressor, it is beyond
question that he does know and
should know who had the machine
when the law was being disregarded.
If he can not or will not produce
the driver, and elects to shield him,
he is in justice bound to stand in
judgment in the drivers place. 9th
eIwise an auto owner could perpet-
ually violate and defeat the law by
employing as driver stranger who
is unknown by name to the police.
1t should be assumed that when
the owner of an auto has author
lied or permitted some other person
to have and operate his auto that he
becomes responsible, at least as in
the case of a railway or other cor
poration, for any infraction of the
law by his agent or representative.
1t is also assumed, or at least 1t
should be that the owner of an auto
should not let an irresponsible per-
son have his machine for use on the
streets and thoroughfares.
An irresponsible person is one
who is reckless of others rights anG
privileges.
An AUTOMATIC is a dangerous per-
son who should be restrained from
the use of an auto on the streets ane
thoPoughfares and the. highways il
the country.
With the great masses OF the peo-
ple the auto is viewed with appre-
hension for the reason that in toe
many instances the driver, owner OF
his friend or hired man, speeds
recklessly, not caring continental
if a dog be killed or some human be-
ing is run down, manned for life OF
crushed to death.
tt is conceded that it is the auto.
maniac who is responsible for thi'
resentment and growing unpopular
ity of the auto with the masses, ant
therefore the automatic should b.
suppressed.
How can the automaniac b.
reached except by and through tn
record of the number of the ma
chine, then to its owner, and if he b
moi the transgressor, to the mania
who has treated the law with con
tempt?
To assume that the police mus
chase an automobile speeding a
twenty-five or forty miles an hou
is ridiculous, and if the ordinance b.
imperative against such maniacs
then the ordinance should be re
pealed and other means of protec
ton be left to each citizen to safe
guard himself as best he can from
the recklessness and the cussednes
OF the autOmaniac.

ECHOES OF CONVENTION.

The following from the Sunday
morning Indianapolis Star sums up
the state convention held last week at
by several local women:
The annual convention is over, and
delegates are doubtless getting their
reports ready for their respective
clubs. That it was the largest conven
ton the federation has yet held. and
the most representative of the work
being carried on by Indiana club wo-
men. goes without saying. Its echoes
will ring in our ears throughout the
year, Strengthening our faith in wo-
manhood and inspiring us to further
efforts for good. Comment will be
made from time to time in these arti-
cles concerning the special features of
the convention.
Mrs. Felix r. McWhirter, the new
president, comes to the work splendid
ly equipped for her duties, AS Parlia-
mentarian in the federation for sever
al years she is well known to her con-
stituency, and greatly admired. She
has long been prominent W. c. T. l..
worker, but let no one suppose that
she will seek to give undue bias in this
direction to the activities Of the organ
ization which she now heads. She is
woman of excellent judgment, broad
sympathies, and with a keen sense of
the eternal fitness of things. She is
a member of the Woman's Research
club.
Mrs. Lewis J. Cox Of Terre Haute,
promoted from second to first vice
president, has served the federation in
an official capacity for the past three
years. Her special interest is civic,
and she is member of the National
Civics association. Frankness, COM
mon sense, and poise especially dis
tinguish her, and she will be valu.
able member of the official family.
Miss Vida Newsom Of Columbus, for
the last two years corresponding sec
rotary, is newly elected second vice
president. Her name is associated
with the Fairgrounds in Columbus.
