In orler to provide all the money
for the state ro;ul funa to which it
entitled, the county court this morn
ing appointed leput Sheriff J. A.
Blakel as count tratftc officer with
special instructions to m' that all ai
to owners purchase i;ie proper state
license.
This order of the court is aimed at
those auto owners wiio. intentionally
or from nglect. have failed to pur
chase a 1917 auto license. It has
come to the knowledge of the court
that there are quite a number of au
to owners in this county who are
running their cars on old licenses and
some of them, it in said, are very
prominent residents. Inasmuch as
the road bonds are to be financed by
auto license fees, the slate will make
special effort to see that all such fees
pre collected.
The law provides a fine of $50 for
failure to take out a license and this
fine money also giws to the road
fund. Deputy Hlakrly will give a
preliminary warntnr to all delin
quents before miking an arrest.
