cAMpEN,s LIckNsE TAX.
The Effect 1t VIII Have Upon Taxes
Mayor Pratt's Order.

Special to the Sunday Morning Net5s-
CAMDEN, July 4, 1s91.- The two Excise
Boards in Camden afford the leading
topic for conversation. The lawyers differ
as much as the laymen concerning the
constitutionality of the County Demo
cratic Board and the right of Mayor Pratt
to follow the instructions OF the city Re
publican Board.
The saloons are open for business. some
by authority of the City Board and the
others by the County Board certificates.
In many instances on opposite corners
different certificates are displayed.
1t was reported that Mayor Pratt had
instructed the chief of police to arrest all
persons found selling Ga County Board
license Chief of Police Dodd denied this.
Mayor Pratt said that il any complaints
were made to him of selling without a
license, the City Board not recognizing
the county license certificates. he would
issue warrant and the case could be
taken to the Supreme Court on writ of
certiorari TO test the legality Of the
County Boards actions.
The part taken by the County Board
has resulted in a reduction in the re-
ceipts from licenses as compared with
last year, and from the present appear
ances will result in a heavier tax rate for
the owners OF property IN Camden
Last year the receipts amounted to sS5.-
000 This year the total receipts will be
only $61, 400 OF this the city receives
SIS, 500, and the county $17. $50, In case
the County Board is sustained by the
courts, a further loss of SIS. 800 VIII be
sustained BY refunding $500 to the seven
ty-nine applicants who received their IL
censes from the City Board. This would
bring the receipts down TO S45. 500, or $39.-
500 less than last year. Added to this
would be the increase in the appropria-
ton of 1900. which would make total
of SIS, $50.
The total tax rate for 1890 was:-Stafe,
30tk; county. 81; city, COZ, and school. So
Total. 81. 45. In case the City Board is
sustained and the saloon-keepers are
forced to take out the city licenses the
total amount of receipts would reach
s92, 900, or 5000 more than last year,
which, added to the increase invalua-
ton, would have resulted in decreased
tax rate.
The courts have been appealed to to
test the case.
