up at the regular meeting of the board
next Monday, and it is probable that
some decision will be reached at that
time. The present ordinance is unde-
Hirable in many ways, and should be
abolished. 1t is thought that business
license ordinance similar to the one now
in operation at Los Angeles would prove
most satisfactory. and it is likely a mod
ified copy of that will be introduced.

streets without license, contrary to the
city ordinance, came up before City
Recorder Rose this morning. City At
torney W. E. Arthur represented the
