The CoUsTY LIOENsE5.-T Board of Su-
pervisors are just nov engaged in showing
what they know abous.the science of county
licenses. The report Of the committee upon
the subjsc-. signed BY two of the members, is
in favor CT fixing the licenses upon saloons at
only s. per month, out OF which fees for the
Sheriff and Auditor are 70 DO deducted-and
In fact il vouid seem that the bestowing Of
these fees Is about the Only object upon the
part e those who favor fixing tie rate at such
figures. Heretofore little or nothing has been
collected for licenses upon saloons il the
county outside Of the city, il being regarded
by the Sheriff, whose duty il was to collect,
that thess by-placss were 80 great mat
ter Of convenience that they should not be
made to contribute to the county necessities.
With this view carried ou', the only licenses
to bs collected would be upon the city resi-
dents, and z taxiwhich thus practically applies
only 10 the city, but ths funds from w6ich
are 10 90 into tie county treasury, end at SO
insignificant rate, aud to be further re-
duced by payment thersfrom for fees of Off
GERS is worse than q farce and should be dill
gently sat doun upon by the city members of
the Board. No license which does not apply
equally throughout the county as we'll as the
city. should be levied and collected for the
county. The three county members, it is
said, are Uniteily IN favor OF such license,
but the members from the city should permit
no such inequality. l. is understood that
Messrs Steinman, Blair and Gottleib are in
favor Of bigher license, and will vote against
the present rate proposed, end against the
fixing Of any license If d higher rate is not
named. Any license which will only apply
to the city should be levisd by the city and
paid into the treasury.
