WINE TAX
License of S2.000 Fdr Handlers of
Domestic Vintage In Effect
Today.
The county commissioners at their
meeting in September passed a law fir- *
ing tbo license for dealers in domestic
wtn?s at s*?,000 per annum. This is of
course a prohibitive tax and means that
one will be allowed to handle wine
of Ids own vintage as the sale from it
could not possibly profit tho seller that
w j large amount.
The new rule goes into effect today,
October first, all oyer the county. It
•earns to have given general satisfac
tion to the people of tho county bat
many think that an injustice has been,
done the dealers in not allowing them
to dispose of the stock already on hand.
It is understood that at the meeting ot
the connty commissioners next Tuesday
a motion will be introduced to make
file license effective Jan. 1, 1905. Tide
will, if passed, give the dealers three
more months to work off their stock on
h tud.
' Hie city council at lta meeting Mon-
day' ’trtitiiacted a number of important

crossing, and to keep the guard at
Fletcher street on duty all day. This
will give^wo guards at thd dangerous
Jackson street crossing. The protet*li\ i>
measures will go into effect at ouco and
