Beatrice Daily Sun from Beatrice, Nebraska • 27

Beatrice Daily Sun, Beatrice, April 26, 1 978 27 Motor car forces changes in towns OUT OF OLD NEBRASKA have almost entirely disappeared. Filth is a breeder of disease. "The coming of the motor car has brought about this welcome change in conditions. It is no insane prediction to make, that within another decade a horse will be a rarity on the streets of our big cities. Then will we have cleanliness that will not alone mean greater healthfulness for the people, but will reduce to the minimum the cost of keeping the streets free from dirt." The annual also includes the entire text of Ordinance No.

7960 "regulating the use of the streets of the City of Omaha for -travel." Section 1 indicates the many types of conveyances on Omaha streets in 1914: "The person in charge of any car The steady growth of the automobile's popularity in Nebraska after 1900 forced many changes upon the state's towns and cities. The new form of transportation required better streets and alleys, new traffic regulations, and accommodation by horse owners, streetcar passengers, cyclists, and others already using city streets. The 1914 annual of the Omaha Automobile Club, on file at the Nebraska State Historical Society, reflects Omaha's attempt to integrate the automobile into the city's traffic pattern. The book begins with an open letter by Nebraska Governor John H. Morehead, who recognized the advent of a new age and declared: "The automobile is no longer an experiment and has even passed out of the domain of a luxury and become a necessity.

I think its coming has increased the demand for better highways, and I am sure the present year 1914 will see a great improvement all along the line." A succeeding article by Omaha Mayor James C. Dahlman was enthusiastic about the impact of the horseless carriage on Omaha: "Let me say that the motor car has been a God-send to the cities. Note the sanitary conditions ten years ago compared with what exists today! Filth, the result of extensive use of horses; flies and pests that developed from this filth, or dray wagon, hackney coach, omnibus, automobile, taxicab, carriage, buggy, motorcycle tricycle, bicycle, 0 other vehicle, used, propelled, or driven upon the streets of Omaha, shall conform to and observe the following rules and regulations." Section 2 further explains: "The word 'vehicle' includes equestrians, led horses and everything on wheels or runners except street cars and baby carriages." Section 17 attempted to regulate autos, horses, and streetcars: "Every person in charge of any vehicle upon any street approaching any street ear which has stopped or is about to stop for the purpose of taking on or discharging passengers shall stop or slow down to jf reasonably safe rate of speedynbt exceeding six miles per, hour, and shall not approach said street can close enough to interfere with passengers boarding and leaving said street car." Section 40 tackles early noise pollution: "No person shall drive a vehicle loaded with iron or other material likely to produce a great annoying sound without using proper deafening substances. No person shall operate or run any automobile, motorcycle, or other vehicle propelled by gasoline or other explosive substance without, such automobile, motorcycle or vehicle have a muffler so attached and connected therewith as to deaden the sound produced by the explosion of material used for propelling the same." A concluding series of advertisements from Omaha merchants also reflects the automobile's impact upon Omaha. Included, are illustrations of a "completely equipped" Overland touring car a modern hotel "centrally located for automobile parties," an underground storage tank for gasoline, and other accoutrements of the automobile age.

One lone advertisement for "Silver Salve," said to "heal galls in horses," relates to horse-drawn vehicles, which were soon to disappear from the streets of Omaha and most other Nebraska towns. dS mZ" thirty davs a. if '--a scores. canawiMbennZy- Number ri8J '978 of rv. $2,000 WINNER WINNER' 00 Left To Winlo WINNER- Diana L.
