it of riding fast through the streetu
of this town that it was unlawful and
also unsafe, but as time passes on, ' up agaiust!any
people forget and on last Wedne::
day the people of our quiet city were
startled by two or three horsemen
passing through Main street at break
iieck speed, and providentially no
children were out or some might
have been severely injured. One
man was arrested and plead guilty
and was fined $5. The others have
escaped yet; while we are opposed to
persons using Main street as a race
track, circus ring, or an avenue to
show oil" one's horsemanship, we
