The License Ordinance.

Ia view of the general and severe criticism
that the City Council has met with on ac-
count OF the changes made ia the license or
dinance, as we'll as on account of the impos-
lion of tax on clerks and other wage-earn-
ers, it is but just that a correct statement of
the changes uade he given TO the public. The
writer has carefully examined the license or
1neuce as revised and amended, for the pur-
pose of getting Mt the facts Of the case
Rednctions have been made in the amounts
of the license tax imposed on various occu-
pations, but the reductions made nre not
partial nor dscriminative as charged The
reductions are general aud in every case are
in the line of justice. The new ordinance
bears more eqnlably upon the business and
professional men of the city than
the ordinance heretofore in force, and this
must be admitted hv any fair-minded man
who will take the time aud trouble TO exam
inc it. As far ~s The writer ca judge neither
the Council as y whole nor individual mem
bers of it are justly chargeahle with nrfair-
mes. or par,iality in msklng up the schedule
of license taxes II is nnfair to make charges
o. ;his character on mere rumor and it should
no, be done Such charges are unfortunate
and to be re.'retted, even when the oesl rea-
sons for making them exis:, INT douhly un-
fortunate when the charges can not be sub
stAntiated.
