The Auction Busiaeaa.
Through the influence uf .'in Ex-Alder,
man, once interested in ti e auction bun
lies®, the license for an auctioneer in oar
city has baen reduced from one hundred
fifty dollar* per annum.- And upon (he
payment of this pitiful sum an auctioneer
may carry on his busin*s«, aell thotmiiri*
cf dollars of his own good*, or of the
Kooda of resident or foreign merchants,
without any liability to any other charge
or t»x whatever.
Such a state of things we venture to»»y
is without a parallel in any other city of
the United S ales, and it it at the name
time exccedirgly impolitic, and iijudi
cious to the interests of the city, while it
operate* verj unequally and unjustly upon
interesta the city, p*y a tax to IKe
State, to the county, to the fity, to the
ach)o! and to the road, upon all the
they *ell. But the etictione/'r by their
»ide, a ithoiit a.?y invcsUnent of hia caj»i-
tal, receiver ten timT^ the amount frorn a
CiftcimiHii or St. uts tucrchant, and sell*
it out at eadion with no other kv thm
an intiiHtc^imal proportion of the fifty dol­
lars annual a'irtn»n«*er'a licence. Thus
by th»* licence t»iranjjcin n'. our etty rob*
lt« 8tat'. the CMt'ify and the school, and
Xioi con'e
14 with 11
tat, vtn roba herwrff,
wtth!r.i»-( a prcinium from her own Trca-
ftury to encourage irre«pon*ihl* auetiun-
eers and s^'-nts of »rei^n rchatiU t-
her own jM rm.(n nt dealt rs and m»nuf*c-
lurers.
This ought not to be xufi«re«i to c-mtiu-
»e any longer. It is an evil ani at itijus
tice whicli dirictly affects the* interest* oT
all the dealt in the city, and all the
nanuf c'urcrs who pay ta*a on their
propi'rty, for it give* the foreign dealer
and manufacturer ao open tieU ef c®m-
petition, free 1 oaa taxation. It inUre
every Ui j»»yor, because the Treasury i
robbed of what jus'ly lelon^a
ill neqtienc# e*rery tax payef'a p»r
cent age i» a lit'le higher tli.in it ou^ht ta
be. It intepeUs all our people, because
the true policy of our city ai weH as eve
ry other to patronixe, eneourape, and
build up the home dealer, and the home
manufac'.urir pernciintently settlei»in thi-ir

Our City Council ahould revise their
reguhtions in regard lo auctioneers at
o'icc. Make them pay a pretty round per
eentago on all good* »old by th« tn at tlie
saiue lime make a discrimination in favor
of go ds owned in the city. Require a
per cenatge al«o on all sold by way of
proceeds of the tsah s. Such a provision
«s this bat ia alwlutety demanded, to pre
vent irresponsible vagabond* with braten
from a distance, but th/so who ijfy be led
to trust them h« re at home.
We trust that the ordinance on this sub­
ject may be revised, and that one may be
adopted instead which will bctkr tubervc
the interest* of the city and the ends of
justice.
