Some motor care pass along Des Vœux Rand, and doubtless elsewhere, nightly at all hours, making the most unnecessary, loud and woird Huisea. In the course of the next week or two, we are likely to have, it would scem, quite a con- [troversy on the motor car in our midst. No one, of course, wishes to injure the motor cur industry in any way or to intorforo with the legitimato pleasure of motor- isle, but the safety of the public and their rights must be the most important element in the con-' sideration of the question.
