OFFICERS MUST
ENFORCE AUTO
SPEED ORDINANCE

The attention of the Bonanza has
been called to the way automobiles
speed through the streets OF Tono-
pah. IL Is but a matter of time
until some one is killed or manned
by the recklessness OF drivers.
There is an ordinance in effect that
was passed by the county CON-
missioners several years ago com.
pelling auto drivers to reduce their
speed to six miles per hour while
passing through the streets of this
city. We have several officers who
are paid by the taxpayers to enforce
ordinances. They are very neglI-
gent in this matter and should use
discretion in the matter. Do not
wait until some one has been killed
or injured, but put stop to the
fast driving at once
This afternoon, while standing at
the corner Of Main street and
Brougher avenue. an automobile
turned the corner going at a rate
OF speed that would put Barney
Oldheld in the shade. 1t nearly
struck d pedestrian who was cross
ing the street at the time
Motorcycles come under the same
head as automobiles in the. status,
and the driver should be given no-
tice that the speed must be con-
fined to the six-mile limit as quoted
in the ordinance.
