Tho llcena# and tax ordinance for tho year 1109 la In the hands of tho printer, and proof sheets will soon be given to tho committee ao that tho entire ordinance can be submitted to the mayor and council for pass* age before the first of January. The committee have been at -work for several lays on thle ordinance, starting at It early that It might be perfected and printed In time for the It Is understood that* so far as the committee la concerned, there will be but few changes In the license* for the new year. They have gone care fully over the ochedule. Item by Item, and had with them License Inspector Herrington, who has given them the benefit of his experience and obser vation. Ho far as can be learned there will be no Increases. Tho near-beer li cense, fdr instance, will remain ao Inst year, $100 for retail and $230 for the wholesale. One of the changes will bo In tha taking off of tho license on the-bmall contractor that was put on last year. For Instance, under the present sched ule, the painter or tha carpentar, or the house mover, or any other person who does work under live hundred dollars, must take out & license. This Includes the carpenter who mends a fenc« for twenty dollars or such sum, or the man who paints a Jlouso for one hundred dollara. The committee are of the opinion that only the con tractor who takes Jobs oyer five hun dred dollara should be required to pay license, and It Is probable that thla will be so fixed as to exempt all''do ing work under fire hundred dollara. It Is also probable that there .will he some change as to tha fruit street stands. Under the present ordinance puch stands are prohibited, but this Is gotten around In various ways. V Is intended that they will be positive ly prohibited by the law being niada to cover all evasions, or that they will be allowed and recognised as la* Ultimate place* of business Just tha same as any store. In addition to these changes there may be n number fit additions that have been made necessary by the many new kinds of businesses that spring up. and of wnlch the license Inspector baa taken note during the year. Another nuttier that may come up for discussion before the tax ordi nance |a passed, Is an Ipofeasod tax on dogs. There are some who think thnt ono dollar Is a very small amount to allow dogs to run the street Thla opinion has been brought about by the number of mad dogs during' the past summer, and the number of pro pie that were'bitten and were com polled to take tho Pasteur treatment at considerable expense. Another rea son Is given why thla tax ehould be Incrense,! is because of the number of vlrloiis dogs being brought Into and kept In the city.' It Is clallned that tho man who keeps o hull dog ought »to be made to pay more than one dollar to keep him. One life, they claim. Is worth all the bub dogs op earth, and yet the owner Is al lowed to keep one and to lat him run the streets, ready to bits a child, or even a grown person, for only rtne dollar. Another reason for Increasing thla tax Is that there are too many dogs anyhow. It Is rlalmad that the city has lesa revenue from this sourre than any other for the renaon that when the cost of Imposing and collecting, thla tax ta considered, the dog tax la a burden on the city government, a bur den on the dog. and a burden on the dog catcher, it la proposed to make the tax ten dollars, and to fine the dog catcher bwenty-flve dollarator every dog he falls to catch and fclfi.
