City and County Consent to Lifting Traffic Rules - , Race Rules Shipped to Prescott - Special Club Meeting Friday

Making peace with the peace off cers and getting the consent of the law, was the task of the motorcycle race committee yesterday. The three bashful young men first approached Jeff D. Adams. who holds down the sheriff job in Maricopa county. He sez:
 All right And we'll send Williams out to see that nobody gets on your right of way"
 Chief Brisbois was seen Bris too was agreeable, and he willingly gave his consent to the speedsters fractur- ing the existing traffic laws along Adams, Seventh avenue and Grand avenue the dewy morn of July 3.
 A formidable document received the signatures of the local competition committee yesterday and was dis patched to the Yavapai club. It con tained the rules for the race. It was the work of Harry Lane. whose fla cile typewriter shaped the legal par agraphs and lined up the musts and dOnts for the riders.
 With less than a fortnight before the race, the GluerS VIII ne the puSN lads Some changes of mount have occurred, and this means extra tun- ing. For instance, following the an nouncement of the Prescott club that the loop race would be open only to machines in the Phoenix Prescott race-also the same riders-some of the Phoenix dealers dropped prepara- tions for shipping fast wagons to the mile high city. An attempt will he made to open the loop race to all riders and all machines, as both the Indian and Excelsior shops in Phoe nix have gone to much extra expense procuring roadsters for the track trial.
 There will be q special meeting of the Phoenix Motorcycle club Friday night to plan for the Monday night benefit performance at the Columbia. The riders will pull off some stunts 10 boost the performance.

 The foregoing opinion is sup ported by a wealth of historical and other references and l do not wish to dissent from any portion of it. But the Iowa law does not provide for a judicial investigation of the iden- tity of the prisoner with the one pre- yiously convicted of a felony as did the law in Washington construed in the ease of State vs. Feilen, referred to in the foregoing opinion.
