PLACE CITY TAX
ON ALL BEGGARS
THIS is THE SUGGESTION MADE
eY 4 WELL KNOWN BUSI-
NESS MAN.

One prominent man in this city
recently made the statement that
he believed they ought to tax beg
gars, particularly those who make
ten or twelve dollars per day, eth
er out of their Affections or with
other equally effacacious schemes to
extract money from the sympathet-
| ic passer-by.
He gave his opinion on the mat
ter as follows:
'As the council is at work regu-
lating the license for the next year
the writer would like to suggest
that a license tax be required of beg
gars. Begging is a business, pure and
