MASS MEETING ON
NEW CITY LICENSE
Every Firm Great or Small viii
Be Represented in M.
And N. Meeting.
COMPETING CITIES FREE.
In None of Them are Merchants Held
To Terms Enforced by Pres
ent Methods Here.

OF the five big western cities which
with Salt Lake make up the six cities
west of the Rockies in active COMPETE
tion for place in the new and growing
west, not one other exists where q mer
chants license Is placed as a handicap
upon the men who are making its com
mercial expansion count for greater de-
velopment.
Thursday evening the merchants of
salt Lake will come together in mass
meeting To see whether they shall con-
tinue to be handicapped by the license
or shall be freed to develop business and
crowd Salt Lake forward on terms
which all the other growing sister cities
enjoy.
Lon j. Haddock, secretary of the
Merchants and Manufacturers associa-
ton. has written to the sixteen biggest
cities near Salt Lake to ask whether
they have in their town merchants
license. OF 10 replies received, IL cities
said their merchants We're free from
this burden and four declared that the
license was in force. None Of
these four were cities with which
Salt Lake is in competition Seattle
did away with II as soon as the handi-
cap ii placed upon it's merchants was
known. In San Francisco it is a
stranger and Denver wouldn't touch it,
The four towns In which it is in force
are Reno. Cheyenne, Phoenix and Sac
ramento, the latter city being unm-
portant since its close proximity to
San Francisco makes the other city
the trade center for the district in
which IL is situated
MERCHANTS ANXIOUS.
Plans for the Thursday evening mass
meeting are being matured rapidly and
the advance indications are that every
firm on Main street and the rest of
the business section will be represented
in force. and that a petition to the
council asking for the repeal of the or
dinance making the license effective
will be drawn up. Frank b. Stephens
Will address the mass meeting on the
relationship of business to the presi-
dents policy of conservation of re-
sources.
The mass meetings support is being
Increased through the receipt of no.
tees by many firms, giving them 10
days in which to'pay the license or be
prosecuted criminally as well as
through civil suits. the notices issuing
from City Atty. Dininnys office.
