THE LICENSE QUESTION.


EDITOR BuLLETIN-Dear ST. Not
In regard to the action of the city council
In raising the license to do business by
commission merchants to fifty dollars per
year. Why that honorable body should
50 Discriminate against so large and
influential yet of the merchants ot the
city, or pick than out as their especial
prey, "no fellow can find out" II there
is any justification for this action, I. for
one, fail to see It. Why should they be
required to pay mere than other mer-
chants Are their profits larger in pro-
portion to capital cmployedy think
not. There are those who cry, "they
make their living with other peoples
money Well, would advise
those croakers to go and do likewise, and
then they will gain some enlightenment
as to whether it requires money or not TO
do business on that plan. "But they
own ao property they eau pack up ut II
moments notice and leave" ! will again
refer you TO the textbooks, and SEQ il you
cannot find therein that this class of
merchants pay their full complement OF
taxes proportionate to the amount Of
business they do, and more in proper
ton TO profits, than any other class.
Now, make the assertion that were II
not for the commission business done in
pant aud pic.cut ,uatr, ro;"s could un.
to-day enjoy the position she does IA II
commercial center. aud be so
well known to the producer North and
the consumer South. Furthermore, they
comprise Our most cnterprising citizens,
who look largely to the welfare OF the
city. Witness their prompt subscription OF
money to gravel Ohio leyee some years
ago, and their late no less prompt subscrip-
ton to help build the Mississippi levecs,
when ready money could not be raised
by the city otherwise. That pushed the
work ahead, and saves an overflow. Now,
| would like to know why they should
pay $50, aud dry goods. grocery and
other licences remain rs they were. Ii
$50 license can be made valid in their
ease, the small men will have to stand
from under. Tho big ones can stand il.
Don't this look like Il ring monopoly. or
something of that sort, being perpetratcd
by our honorable city council: and Id
like to know in whose favor.
