An Indian Chiefs FareweH Speech

smile in the face Of the poor Indian
to cheat him; they shake him by the
hand to gain his confidence. to make
him drink, and to deceive him. We
told them to let us alone and keep
away from us, and they coiled them
selves among us like a snake, They
poisoned us by their touch.
We called great council and built
a large fire. The spirit OF our fathers
arose and spoke to us TO avenge our
wrongs or die. We set up the war

our knives were ready and the heart
Of Black Hawk swelled high in his
bosom when he led his warriors to
battle. lie Is satisfied. He will go
to the world of spirits contented He
has done his duty. His father will
meet him there and commend him.
Black Hawk is a true Indian and
disdains to cry like a woman. He
feels for his wife, his children anC
his friends But he does not care for
himself. He cares for the nation and
the Indians. They will suffer. He
laments their fate.
Farewell, my nation! Black Hawk
tried to save you and avenge your
wrongs. He drank the blood of some
OF the whites. He has been taken a
prisoner, and his plans are stopped
He can do no more! He is near his
end. His sun is setting. and he will
rise no more. Farewell to Black

he says, when feeling chatty;

MAKER Of AUTOMOBILE
IS LIABLE FOR DEFECT
New York Court of Appeals Sus-
tains Decision Holding Him
Responsible.

The recent decision OF the court OF
appeals of New York in affirming the
judgment of lower court, which made
the manufa cturer of an automobile la
BILE to the ultimate purchaser for dam
ages for injuries received through the
defective construction of the car, is at
tracing widespread attention. This is
not only because Of its bearing on au-
tomobile makers. but also because OF
it's effect on manufacturers of other
lines.

from those who may be affected in tn-
future by an application of the princi-
pie enunciated The points decided by
the court are said to be as follows:
The manufacturer Of a finished prod
uct of machinery which is to be used
without new tests, and which in the
nature of things in reasonably certain
to place life and limb in peril, is under
duty to make it carefully. and for i

Night Lights Not Required.

mere were four bills introduced at
ehe session just closed providing that
all vehicles should carry lights at
night. One of these bills was intro
duced and killed in the senate The
three others were introduced and killed
in the house. Notwithstanding the
fate of these bills. the members of the
committee were greatly encouraged to
note the growing strength of the senti-
ment in favor of such law.
In conclusion Mr.. Sellott states that
the revised law is the fairest and most
comprehensive ever submitted to the
Maryland legislature. 1t is the out
come of many years experience on the
part of the state roads commission, the
commissioner of motor vehicles, the
public and the motorist under the eX-
listing laws as amended from time to
time. Provisions which were thought
good when originally made have been
found bad in actual practice. These
have been eliminated. Other provisions
which were urged years ago and
turned down because they were I'M
tried, since have been tried and found
satisfactory elsewhere, and have been
embodied in the new law.
The law does not go into effect until
July |. and until that date the old law
will remain in effect without any
change whatever.

Motor Cycle Fee Increased.

The annual registration fee in the
case of motor cycles has been raised
from $3.50 to SO per year. 1t was felt
that this charge was fairly proportion
ate to the five-dollar minimum charge
for the smallest automobile, especially
in view of the high speed and difficult
ties of properly policing this class of
traffic.
The charge under the new law for
delIers licenses is slightly higher than
under the old law, but the old law
contained a number of restrictions upon
the dealers right TO use his special tags
for other than clearly business pur-
poses. and these restrictions have all
been abolished under the proposed law
On The whole, the dealer may pay lit
tie more but will he better off.
The only change made in the law rela-
tive to operators licenses is a reduction
in the charge for chauffeurs licenses from
s. to So per year. There was a strong
demand to abolish the present 81 per
petual license for ordinary operators ant
substitute for IL 81 annual fee. but this
point was one OF those conceded by ths
states officials in the effort to reach q
final conclusion.

"speed Trap Profits Cut.

Much thought was given to finding a
way to meet this condition of affairs 1t
was realized that if the profits of main
tanning such speed traps could be cut
down to minimum the abuse would be
cut down to a minimum. 1t was also re-
allied that the greatest part of this profit
came from charging fees which were not
warranted by law
stipulating in the law precisely what
charges should be made bv justices and
constables in motor vehicle cases and
making them subject to removal from
office for exceeding these charges.
Roadside courts are also abolished
and divisions of fees prohibited under
