te notify Sheriff Peterson to appear

JUDGE'S STATEMENT
Judge Robert's statement which was
made during a special court session
! this morning follows:
The day before yesterday the state
of rtah acted in the Nerlan case and
1 charged hlrn with lolatlon of traffic
la us of the state by driving his ma
! chine at a speed greater than Is con
sidered safe To this Nerlan enr r.-d
a plea of guilty and It appeared from
the facts that he was traveling at a
! very excesslvo rate of speed between
Pleasant View and Ogden.
"The facts showed thut his si 1
was particularly dangerous while pro
ceeding around the turn at North ' 'g
den where the pavement Is narrow
ami that after passing this point ho
drove his car at a speed not less than
forty-five miles to sixty-five miles an
hour. At thle speed he passed one
, ehl le with no apparent regard for
the safety of the occupants.
II- converted the public hlghwa
Into a speed course
' The court, after full consideration
of the facts In the case Imposed a
five-day sentence upon Nerlan and a
commitment was issued and delivered
to the sheriff directing that the- de
fendant be confined for five days at
hard labor.
ORDERS INVESTIGATION
"Yesterday morning the rumor was
rife that Sheriff Peterson had dis
charged the prisoner from custody and
the court took the matter under ad-
visement and ordered an ln estlgatlon. i
The only authority that could
supercede the commitment order and
set aside the penally was the state
board of pardons in Salt Lake, which
haa held no meeting within the past
few days and has not authorized the
discharge of the prisoner
"The court has sufficient knowledge
at this time. I believe, to Justify
against Sheriff Peterson for disregard
of the order of commitment, and cit
ing the sheriff into this court to show
cause as to why he did not carry
out the commitment, i Judge Roh rt

PERSON UL sTTFrENT
Afte the court session Judge Rob
erts issued a personal statement re
garding the affair in which h d --!ared
that It was with sincere regret
that he was forced to take action of
this kind with Sheriff Peterson
He said. ' I regret sincerely to take
this necessary action. Sheriff Peterson
and I have been neighbors for fifteen
months and I hold him in high re
gard. "I am sorry ho has taken the course
he followed , no doubt not realizing
what it meant As a personal matter
the court would never think of doing
what the law compells In order that
no repetition may come on the part of
other executives.
"There have never been better
friends than Sheriff Peterson and I
and 1 want to aseure all concerned
that It is not a personal matter and
regret doing it as an official dutv '
ORDKRKI) rfERl N BACK
Sheriff Peterson said this morning
that he has ordered Nerlan returned
to Jail to serve his full sentence and
the man would be in his cell as 6oon
as it was made possible He declared
that he ordered him returned and had
notified the officers of the compan
which he is employed to get In touch
with Nerlan and tell him to return
at once t
"I will have Nerlan back In Jail
within four hours if this Is possible,"
Sheriff Peterson said. "The public
seems to demand It and I want to ful
fill my duties ."
Sheriff Peterson then explained that
he thought he was taking the proper
course In releasing Nerlan and his
actions would bo of value to the com
munity In allowing Nerlan to close
his pending deals in real estate These
deals were Important to the city Inas
much as they aided the growth and
development of the community, he
said.
"I have talked to several persons
since releasing Nerlan." the sheriff
said, ' and they all have agreed that I
took the proper course.
"However, there has been criticism
and for this reason I have ordered
Nerlan to return and serve his full
time in Jail."
Sheriff Peterson called attention to
the fact that there had been many
instances In both the police and Sher
iff's departments where releases had
been made before full time was serv
ed, and it was such a common practice
when a prisoner's conduct was good,
to allow him liberty before his full
sentence was served.

CHICAGO, Aug. 12. Regulation of
habit-forming drugs is called "a fall-!
ure and a scandal" by the Council on
Health and Public Instruction of the
American Medical association.
The council Is now studvlng the
narcotic situation In the organized ef
fort of the medical profession to cor
rect abuses of the Harrison law.
Dr. Frederick R. Green, secretary
I of the Council on Health and Public1
Instruction, showed me tho council's
report to the American Medical assoc
iation on the Narcotic situation.
LAW NOT WORKING.
It shows conclusively that the Har
rison anti-narcotic law Isn't function
ing. Ten times as much opium as is
needed for medical purposes Is legal
ly Imported into this country eerv
year." said Dr Green What becomes
of the other nine-tenths? And the ad
ditional amount that Is smuggled In '"'
Dr. Green's report recommended
this action by the American Medical
association to make the anti-narcotic
law effective:
l Investigate the amount of nar
cotic drugs required each year for le
gitimate purpose by America's 160,
000 physicians and 7000 hoopltals.
2 Obtain official statistics on the
amount annually Imported into the
United Statea.
3- Devise an effective wav for the
government control of importation
and distribution by the United States
Public Health Service
TRAFFIC INCREASING.
The illicit traffic in opium, mor
phine, heroin, and cocaine, according
to Dr. Gren's report, has Increased
rather than decreased through efforts
to enforce the Harrison law; has
brought extortion of unfortunate vic
tims and enormous proflta for traffic
kers. a nd has led to blackmail and of
Clclal corruption. 1
Without counting smuggling, enough
opium la consumed in the United i
States to provide every man, woman
and child with 36 doses a year on the
basis of one grain to a dose!

Judgment for the principal and Inter-
Worth of Business i
For the Asking I
The Ellis Automatic Tire Guage Is made entirely of metal, no glass, celluloid or other breakable materia! enters !
into its make-up. It can be applied to any make of tire within ten minutes, and Is entirely automatic in Its action,
Causing no trouble and requiring no care from the car owner. It will positively register the accurate pressure of air 1
In the tire at ail times and will wor under any and all conditions of ordinary usage Mud, water or other elements
have no effect In lessening its efficiency. The Indication figures are always in plain view and can be seen, in fact,
as plainly as the tire itself. It attaches to the regular valve stem now universally used on all cars and can be trans
ferred from one tube to another without the trouble of removing the valve stem from the tube The guage will out- gV
last the life of any car. You can Inflate your tires after applying this device without removing any caps, nuts, bolts,
or anything as a matter of fact, except the small airtight cap which is supplied with each Inner tube. You can also
change tires or make repairs to your tube, removing same without the necessity of employing th use of wrench or
pliers. The casing, tube and demountable nm can be removed from the wheel in much less time after the installa- I
tlon of the guage than without It. ji
You can ascertain the pressure of all tire6 you carryln one half minute simply by walking around the car and
glancing at the guage. The figures on the guage are large and can be seen without the necessity of kneeling down 1
or giving close inspection. Any setvice station man will be glad to fill your tires If you have Ellis Automatic j
Gauges free of charge because It will not consume more than two minutes of time to put all irea up to proper pres
sure. I
A description of the guage i9 as follows: The guage is composed of six parts first, an indicator post which Is
securely fashioned to the demountable rim; second, pressure Indicator tube which screws down over the regular 1 i
valve stem; third, a steel spring which works inside of the Indicator post; fourth, a spring protection tube which 1 l
holds spring securo in place; fifth, an inner tube protection plate which is fastened securely to the Inner tube, screw
mg down against same, making an airtight connection; sixth, a dust and waterproof cap which is made entirely of
metal and serves only as a protection for the valve and valve stem, and which does not have to be removed to see
tire preasure nor to make repairs or remove tire, inflation of tire also being accomplished without disturbing this I
caP- IB
The possibilities to the investing public in the stock of the Ellis Automatic Tire Air Guage Company are too
great to be even estimated
One instance right here of its great money making possibilities may be illustrated: We have here in Weber
County more than 600 bona fide orders for installation of gauges just as soon as we are able to have them manu- I
factured. These orders were placed by some of the leading industrial concerns and individual car owners of the
county without solicitation. One glance at the gauge ws sufficient to convince them that it was an absolute neces- I
slty if they wished to conserve the i if e of their tires. The entire set can be paid for out of tire saving within a few
months This Is more than 10 per cent, of the cars of this county and in itself would return good Interest on the
entire Invested capital. And this s only a drop in the ocean, you might say, as there are over 7,000,000 cars running j
in the United States carrying mere than 35,000,000 tires ,n this time, and our field for operation is the entire I
country, for the good reason that thetc is not now to our knowledge a single automatic gauge installed on any car. 1
Think of what an enormous business this is and we have practically a complete monopoly on the business as this 9
is the only absolutely accurate unbreakable, non leak guage on the market today.
One hundred and five million dollars worth of business is to be had for the asking right now, and an additional
$30,000,000 business each and every year figuring on the normal annual production of cars In the United States. Do
you want to participate in the enormous profits to be made by this company in the very near future? An invest
ment of a few hundred dollars now, right NOW, may makeyou independent for the balance of your life. Do not al- j
low this opportunity to pass by because it will not come your way again. As soon as the installation of these gauges
commences, and this will be within the next sixty days, you will not be able to buy this stock even at a big prem- A-i
lum. f
Mall the below coupon at once stating how many shares you desire to purchase and our stock salesman will
call on you and close up the deal.
