: How to Mcasara Kleatric Car Speed.
To tho Public.
,There Is ko much controversy rei-peotlnil
the car speed of the Traction cam that I
wish to give the people tlata by which
Key may be sure what speed Is actually
wade lit any Riven time. The instance be.
tween the trolley poles Is iienerally 120
leet, or forty-four to the mile. 8lx of
these spaces equal TJ feet, and feet per
minute Is a rate of eight miles per hour.
If av person rldins: in a car wishes to
determine Its rate of speed, he can lo so
by noting the location of-the second hand
on his watch.,' hen he passes a trolley pole,
and when counting the poles subsequent
ly passed. It six trolley pole are pussed
within the. minute" then ilie speed is a
fraction over elaht miles per hour; If
even, the speed is u fraction over .SI:
If eiKht, 10: IT nine. 12.J7: if ten. M.tK;
If eleven, 14.SS; If twelve. H.W, If thirteen.
.:tr. ; if fourteen. 17.71: if fifteen, ami
miles per hour. -Jnd for every adilltioiml'
pole passed within the minute add I X.'-t''i
miles per hour. , While the mayor hua hud
ocular evidence- that the curs do run
more than eight miles per hour, yet he
cannot lie prosecutor. Judue and Jury.
Some cltlxen must mak" complaint and
produce the evidence before the muyor
can act In this or In any other case. The
.province of a -Judfce is not to leave the
bench to hunt up evidence of the viola
tion or law. In fact. If the Judge should
see the luw violated. UnJ the ca-e should
lie trie!- by Mm. he would be a violator
of law If he allowed the knowledge tie
possessed to influence his decision, lie
must ' decide according to the law
and the evidence produced by the prose
cutor.' Now If utvy cltlxen will test the
pee. I of th cars and make complaint
to the.muyor with the proper evidence, he
ran be assured that action will be taken
Immediately. Vours truly.
