HIGH LICENSE.
The Supreme Court Sus-
tains the City.
$50 PER MONTH THE RATE
Synopsis of the Opinion as Deliv
cred by Judge McKee-Judge
Ross Dissents.

Special to The Herald bvthe Associated Press
San Francisco, March i6.-In the
habeas corpus case of Guerrero, a Los
Angeles saloon keeper, the Supreme
Court to-day rendered decision dismiss
ing the writ and remanding the prisoner.
In September, 1885, the Common Coun.
Gil Of Los Angeles passed an ordinance
requiring all the saloon keepers to pay a
monthly license of $50. There were
issues raised that the ordinance was in
valid because it was not legally passed,
and that the Council assumed powers
not delegated by the Constitution. The
Court decided that the ordinance was
valid.
The court says that Of the power of
the State to authorize the license of all
trades and employments there is no
doubt and that at the time the legisla.
ture granted Los Angeles its charter 1t
had the right to do so and give the au-
thority to exercise the license power.
Another objection raised was that the
ordinance was oppressiye-in the tax OF
$50 per month to which the court re-
sponds that the power to impose licenses
at all being granted the discretion was
vested in the council to discriminate as
between the various businesses which
might be considered useful to the com
munity or immoral, and the courts are
hound to assume that that the munich
al legislature will exercise its discretion
5r the public good.
Objection was also made to the ordi-
nance that it requires the consent OF the
Police Commissioners to engage in the
business of liquor selling, which was a
virtual prohibition of the business OF
life. 'This condition" gays the court,
Imposed upon the persons entitled TO
license affects only the operation of the
and not its existence, as a
mere mode. The condition imposed is
not more unusual or onerous than a
statutory law or local ordinance, passed
in the exercise Of the police power OF
the State, has frequently prescribed for
other occupations or professions. =
1t was also objected to the ordinance
that the judgment OF conviction was
void because the City Court Of Los An
geIes, where the defendant was tried,
was abolished by Section of Article vi
of the New Constitution, but the Court
held this point to have no merit. The
opinion, which covers sixteen pages Of
closely written foolscap, is written by
Mckee and eoncurred in by Myrick,
Sharpstein, Thornton and Morrison.
Judge Ross filed dissenting opinion,
holding that the ordinance was void for
the reason that the power conferred on
the Mayor and Council by the charter Of
the city is in effect delegated by that
body to the Board OF Police Commits
sioners. The principle is a plain one
That public powers or trusts deyolved
by law or charter upon the Council, or a
governing body, to be exercised by It
when and in such manner as it she'll
Judge best, aud cannot be delegated to
othefs
