However entitled to consideration
and weight the action Of this body MAY
be VIXEN applied to matters relating to
the obi :.s Of It's or. an:zltion, we i.nl
very little TO approve in the resolutions
Of Tuesday.
In the frs, place, they unnecessarily
reflect upon Mr.. Marsha, for intro
ducing in the legislature what we con.
strue 10 be a wise and much-neel,d .aw
IN u city, upon the idea that II was
neither advised nor wanted by Ms con.
slituency. We correct this error, and
do justice to Mr.. Marshall, when we
state the fact 20 be that the measure he
introduced had been msturely :on,il-
cred by the Aldermen Of the city, APP
proved by them, and he only acted in
pursuance of their written request in
his effort 10 pass It through the House.
But what is the proposed Law that
these resolutions 50 vigorously cou-
denim? In 1875 the Legislature
passed an Act imposing a tax upon the
privilege Of carrying on any and every
character of business common to the
people Of the State. The same law
imposed a Limitation upon the power Of
any town or city 10 collect a like tax
for corporation purposes exceeding
2ne.hay that required for the State.
