the spirit Of the constitution, to grant such
requests.
The only discrimination in favor OF re-
ligious societies authorized by law is cx-
cmption from taxation OF their places Of
worship.
The Mayor himself, though it was pro-
posed to make him the dispenser Of charity
licenses in extreme cases Of poverty, re-
commends strict compliance with the letter
OF the law, it being impossible to satisfy
the overwhelming number of applicants
daily crowelinS in and around his office.
The petition before me bears no sigma
ture, but emanates, understand, from resi-
dent preachers Of the Holy Gospel in be
half Of colorcd congregations; but even if
properly signed, there can be no question
that ;airs, festivals, and such like enter-
tainments OF II gay and amusing character
come within u scope OF all tax legislation
easiest reconciled as to proprie:y and sound
policy. ! therefore, report untivorah hly.
