Where one man, attracted by the publicity given this or that district here for the express purpose Of examining and investing, hundred come with no other thought than a vacation trip But the man who afford a trip Alaska is man or some means and he is adverse to in creasing his wealth. Show him how this can be ae- complished, and your tourist becomes an investor lie is and for many will be imporatnt factor in the development of the resources Of the Terri tery. He should be encouraged in every way It u estimated by business men in Seattle that five pe cent or the tourists visiting that cty become fnan. c'aly interested there, conservative estimate is that seven per cent of the visitors who tour the Territory become interested in development of it's resources. From this it may readily be seen what an important part the tourist is destined to plav Tn the growth and development of our Northland

NEW LAW FIXES IS
MILES AS SPEED OF
CARS IN COUNTRY
Is Now in Effect and Will
Be knocked in Ar
rests Here.

blouse Bill No. 535-Speed Law"
Under the terms of this act Bexar
county automobile speeders will be
prosecuted, beginning Thursday. This
announcement was made by officials
of the justice courts.
Under the new speed law the limit
is fixed at 30 miles an hour in the
county. Within the city limits the
speed limit is 20 miles an hour.
Because the old state law prescrib-
ing speed limitations for motor We
hicles was held inadequate. the pass
age of the new law by the Legisla-
ture, carried the emergency clause
and this statute is now in full force
and effect. Copies of the new speed
regulations. sent out by the State
Highway Department. at Austin.
reached local authorities Thursday
morning.
Both city and county motorcycle
police and all officers of San Antonio
and Bexar county. as a consequence
will be guided by the terms of the new
law and which provides for maxi
mum fine of $500 for each and every
offense
San Antonio and county officials
say that because the speed limit has
been increased ten miles, from % TO
80 miles per hour, it will probably
mean that thereafter the bulk of of
tenders will be apprehended within
the city limits. Twenty miles an hour,
it is said. will furnish grounds for
many arrests, motorcycle officers pre-.
dict. as this limit is invariably violat-
ed in the residential districts.
Under the new act, too, speed. will
also be based upon weight of the mo-
tor vehicle and its load, this feature
having TO do with commercial motor
vehicles. For instance commercial
truck. including weight Of load, that
totals between 2000 and 1000 pounds
tables the driver to arrest and con-
viction where speed limit of eighteen
miles an hour is exceeded anywhere in
the state. Weight up to 5000 pounds
provides for maximum of fifteen
miles an hour while maximum
weight of 10000 to 10000 pounds
weight must not move az greater
rate of speed than ten miles an hour.
