The Free License Business.

m loving picture show in Jackson. was
awarded a free license in the same
business for all points in the county
outside of jackson. This aoticn
cones on the top of free licenes for
the three months preceding. Now at
10 per week, this free license is
tantamount to a gift to. the favored
individual of $40. What will the
taxpayers Of Amador county think
of this act of generosity-o more
properly speaking, favoritism on the
part of those Intrusted with the
management of the county's
finances. The burden thus taken
fl ON the shoulders Of the individual.
means the imposition of an addition
al corresponding burden upon the
general taxpayers. 1t must be re-
mem bered that this free license was
granted without any formal request
in writing from the party benefited.
SO far as the record SHOWS, it WAS
unasked - literally forced upon the
benelioiare. There ls no plea Of in
digence or charity to back it up.
