F in Minnesota This Year p" 1

Taxes on 10000 more motor veh-
icles to date this year have increased

1921 total but the tax enforcement
campaign is still on until every slack
er has been rounded up, says the

Charles M. Babcock, state high
way commissioner, said nearly $50
engineers and other field men of
the department will continue ~e to
prosecute unlicensed car cases in ad-
dition to carrying on their regular
duties. The announcement followed
a report from Mike Holm, secretary
of state, of 1922 motor vehicle reg
istration totals to Aug. / Of about
$4,000 passenger cars, $4,000
trucks, 5000 motorcycles and 500
trailers. This is gain of about co.

complete 1921 figure and many new
applications are being made. 49,.
+ The enforcement campaign now
going on through the regular en-
ployees of the highway department
has listed more than 1000 unlicens-
ed cars and brought more than 700
prosecutions with fines in the ma
jority of cases. A large number Of
cars are being recorded for sheriff's

A GHOST CITY WILL
STAGE COME BACK

j. s. Cain, the Bodie mining man,
accompanied by E. w. Billed, his
son-in-law, was in Carson City on
his way to the old mining camp to
the south, few days ago. Several
years ago C. E. Van Loan wrote
for the Saturday Evening Post a
series of articles about the ghost
cities of Nevada, .and in his list in
Guided the once booming town
of Bodie. Mr.. Cain does not admit
that Bodie is a ghost at all and If
it is, he believes that it will come
out of its state of coma and again
bloom like a green bay tree.
1t has been stated in the papers
several times that the town was en-
tirely gone and that even the post
office has been discontinued. This
is not so, for the postoffice is still
in working order and there has
never been a time when the mining
business entirely ceased. There is
mill there, still in operation,
which is capable of reducing eighty
tons of ore per day. During the
season, when the weather is not SO
cold as to freeze the solutions, for
several years this mill has been
kept busy on ores from leases, and
the leasers all seem to be making
money.-Carson Appeal.

ELY man KILLED
IN AUTO WRECK

Charles Anderson Of Ely, was in
stantly killed Monday morning when
the Ford car in which he and sew
eral others were returning to McGill
skidded at the Aultman street curve
near the power house of Ely and
collided with power line pole. The
accident occurred about o'clock in
the morning as Harold Slater, STAN
ley Reed, Tom Mcbride and Char
les or "Chick" Anderson were re-
turning to their homes at McGill.
The curve at the east end of Ault-
man street is a dangerous one and
from the track made by the wheels
it appears that the car skidded for
a distance of about fifty feet before
striking the guard pole which is
placed in front Of the power line
pole. The car hit with sufficient
force to smash the right rear wheel
and crush in the rear door, says the
Ely Times.
Anderson who was riding in the
rear seat was pitched forward, his
head striking the pole and throw
ing him a distance of several feet
where he lay bleeding from the nose
and ears. His eye was almost
forced out of its socket, the right
side of the head was crushed and
his neck, upon examination, was
found 70 be broken. Death was al
most instant. Other occupants Of
the car escaped with minor bruises.
A cornorer's inquest was held Mon
day afternoon.
The jury recommended to the
mayor and city council that city
ordinance regulating the speed Of
motor vehicles be strictly enforced
within the city limits in order that
such deplorable accidents might be
avoided.
