Jasper County Democrat, Volume 23, Number 24, Rensselaer, Jasper County, 19 June 1920 — VIOLATORS SHOULD BEWARE [ARTICLE]

VIOLATORS SHOULD BEWARE

Or the Mayor’* Special Constable Will Get Them. The city council at its meeting Monday night authorised the mayor to appoint an officer to “get after” violators of the automobile law. Whether or not this appointment was made at once The Democrat is unable to say, but Wednesday afternoon, when there were comparatively few cars in town, the writer counted three cars without license plates on the south side of Washington street, between The Democrat office and the postoffice, on one trip made to the latter. Coming back on the north side of the street we noticed one car minus license plates. The man who willfully attempts to beat the state out of this license fee will get little sympathy from the public should he be arrested and fined. *
