The Bourbon news., 1912-09-05

Regardless of the State laws and a
special city ordinance governing the
automobile, it seems that the drivers
and owners of Paris and Bourbon
county take little heed. Mayor Hinton
has repeatedly notified owners and
drivers through all of the Paris papers
and has instructed the police to enforce
the law. But in the face Of all. reck-
lass driving is indulged in every day
and night in Paris. The streets of
Paris are narrow and are generally
crowded and it is hard matter to
even comply with the law and avoid
accidents. Numerous complaints have
been telephoned The News and asking
tnat we take hand in the fight.
Yesterday we understand there were
several accidents on South Main street
and in the vicinity of Cypress Hun. G.
M. Thomas was run into and his horse
seriouly injured. Mrs. Jas. Connolly
also collided with machine and sew
eral other accidents were narrowly
averted. The only remedy that the
News can suggest is to arrest and
make an example Df one of the vic.
lators.
We don't know the particulars Of
either of the above accidents and don't
refer t. them in particular but to all
automobile owners in general.
