that by next week an ordinance will be
prepared that will permit beet markets
outside of a half mile or three -fourths
mile limit, the butcher paying a license
tax OF perhaps S25. This will do away
with the West End market, which row
costs the city $50 month, while the
city derives from it $1l rent.
