A COMMUNICATION.


tnt EToROse0 ordinance Pro-
hibitins Peddling.
Butte. April 2s.-The following COM
munication regarding the proposed
peddling prohibition ordinance gives
the arguments presented in support of
the measure by its friends. and is in
reply to local article in the STAN
dard this morning:
Editor Standard-As stated, the
measure referred to was drawn by
City Attorney Cotter, who, 1 UNDER
stand, unreservedly endorsed its pur-
port, viz, the prohibition of this class
Of bedding. Health Officer Gum and
Sanitary Policeman Kemp also ap-
proved of 1t. The Standard scarcely
believes that these gentlemen would
give their assent to an ordinance IN
Juring any class of business men UNI
less they had fully assured themselves
1t would conduce TO the benefit of the
entire public. That it is impossible to
handle fruits. vegetables, meats, poul-
try and fish In peddling wagons with
the care and cleanliness such perish
able provisions require. every person
who deals in them will. IL speaking
truly, admit. The public we'll knows
that they are hurried into this market
either by fast freight or express. ana
the icing of them adds materially to
the cost of transit. The Strengthening
companies that furnish this city with
its meats, find the erection and MAIN
tenance of cooling rooms a heavy item
of expense. rf.lAf 81
The grocery houses, nearly all of
which carry this line of goods. with
the exception of meats, and the mar
kets and butcher shops, have ice boxes
or coolers of other characters in which
to keep such goods fresh and pure.
Thus IL Is seen that every one hand
ling these goods keep them in ut con-
dition for consumption with the ex-
ception of the peddlar. His wagon Is |
his establishment, and during the heat |
OF the day, through clouds of dust and |
clouds of flies, he hurries about, dis |
posing of his heated, dirty. fiy-blown.
bruised and decaying wares. That |
such traffic Is a menace to the health /
Of the city naturally follows. and IL is /
not surprising that the health DEPART /
ment, as well as a large number of /
aldermen. favor prohibiting II. Also
the majority of peddlars who are pre-
proper manner by soliciting their or
iers and delivering the goods without
hauling them through the streets an
lay. -----,--.--
Ordinances similar to the one under
have been passed by a num-
Der of cities notably San Francisco
Ind Salt Lake. and we have yet to
earn that those municipalities regret Is
heir adoption. This ordinance IL
'assed must prove of incalculable ben
fit to the health of the city, which IN
Is effect upon the vendors of those |
PROVISIONS will simply compel them to
10 business upon a common basis and |
Inder common conditions. tOl

Butte, April 2s.-When Mary Camp
bell went through the bureau in her
room at the Clarence hotel this even
ing she discovered that her purze.
which contained ss4 In money and two
certificates OF deposit for s255 and sf7o
on clark's bank, had been stolen. and
about the same time Daisy Morris dis
covered that her purse, containing SIG.
was also missing. Both girls are en-
ployed In the hotel as mattresses. and
MISS Campbell had been saving up her
old. Both robBeries had been perpe-
trated within the last two or three
Gays, ana there is no doubt that II was
the work of some of the crooks who
nave been pouring into Butte in un-
sprecedented numbers during the past
week or ten days. 1t is a well known
fact that there are more crooks, ho-
boes and all-around suspicious char
acters In Butte just now than have
ever congregated here before, and IL
VIII require the utmost vigilance on
the part OK the police to prevent whole
sale depredations.
There are a number of particularly
nervy fellows among them, and one OF
the latter coolly walked off with a
Macintosh which was hanging in
'front.' or Babcocks store in Upper Main
street early this evening. while IL was
almost yet broad daylight. The sud-
den influx of blacklegs and thieves is
evidently due to the fact that a prac-
tically new police force will soon be on
guard. and they probably don't expect !
TO be interfered with by the present
police force. Chief Legion proposes to |
give them a parting shot to remember |
him by, however, and he issued or |
ders this evening for a general round |
up OF all suspicious characters by the |
night force. All of their haunts and |
resorts will be gone through just be-
fore daylight, and the city Jail will |
probably have more occupants to-mor-
row than 1t has for long time. Most l
Of the recent arrivals among the /
crooks are too old in the business to
sleep around in the gambling houses,
where they would be under the con-
slant surveillance of the police, but I
their favorite hanging out places are
known and they will be ferreted out.
