SATURDAY, JULY 8.
LET NO GUILTY MAN ESCAPE.
To the Honorable Mayor and City

~ thC AAOuOt0OhC kNuyOA ono OssJ
Council of Baxter Springs, Kan:
would respectfully recommend
some slight changes or revision of
Ordinance, No. 81.
The police judge evidently does
not understand the construction of
the state law in regard to occupa.
ton taxes aud especially the one re-
ferring to hacks, railroads, etc.
The law of 1881. Chap. 40, Sec. 8.
provides for the levying aud col
lection of an occupation tax on &C.
equations, professions or trades, in
Guiding hackney or livery carriages
wagons and all other vehicles trans
porting passengers or merchandise
for pay. all railroads and railroad
companies, telegraph and telephone
companies, bankers, and banking
houses or corporations, cattle deal
ers. etc.
In order to avert q controversy
between the city government aud
the police magistrate and the tax
payers of the CITY,, would recon-
mend the passing of an ordinance
in plain language covering the
above occupations. The city of Ga.
lena has just passed an ordinance
taxing hacks s. per annum or 81 per
day, railroads $50. telephone com
panies $50. telegraph companies SIS,
electric light companies $50. bank
ers or banking corporations 80.
Our ordinance regarding banks ia
weak and should he corrected.
During the reunion We are likely to
have a large number of hacks and
other vehicles. This item should
be made plain, positive aud dis.
tinct, 30 that the police judge will
be in line with the intention of the
ordinance. II we collect a tax on
the electric light company there is
no reason why the telegraph and
telephone companies should not be
taxed ia the came ratio. Inasmuch
as most of our officials, newspaper
men. preachers, politicians and at.
torneys have passes on the rail.
roads II may not be policy to tax
them, but iest the railroads forget
there is such a town as Baxter
Syringe would suggest about s.,
which is the amount we put on
small sailor boarding houses.
Our ordinance in regard to gener.
al merchandise should be corrected.
Parties are claiming under that
head the right to sell coal, ice, grain,
pop corn, hot tamalas, mules and
every other kind of goods or mer-
The above clause should
be stricken out of the ordinance.
would suggest that whenever per
son carries different lines of goods
he should pay the regular price on
one line, such as dry goods ar gro
ceries. and then a nominal sum,
say 81 or So for each additional line.
believe II your honorable body |
will carefully consider the above
suggestions you will see the neces-
sity of immediate action.
