Repairs for Any Make of Bicycle at Smiths CKEAMERY BUILDING Agent for Cleveland Bicycles MAYOR GVES HIS REASONS POR VflO To the Council of the City of La Grande: I herewith return Ordinance No. 327' series 1 906 with my disapproval. An ordinance to amend the existing laws licensing and regulating the sale of liquor should produce at least two desir able results; it should be a msans ot in creasing the revenue and of making an improvement in the morals of the com munity. The conditions imposed should be rea sonable and legal according to the laws and Constitution of the State of Oregon. The "square deal for every man" thit we have heard so much about, should guide your actions in shaping and enact in j laws on any sjbjjst that ma effac t any class of people. Ulterior motives in v ting for a measure should never oe the basis f ir your decisio is. Measures shou d enacted on their merits, according to hon est conviction, sound judgement and for the best welfare of the whole people, and not in the interest of any particular class or faction. My main objections to this ordinance are about as follows: I do not believe that, in its present shape, it will increase the revenue, improve the morals or reduce any evils that present laws cannot reach; that it wi l create a monopoly; that it will discriminate in favor pf tne man with the most money regardless of the char acter of the man; that it w'U decrease pop ulation and cause mtny houses to become vacant; that it is in violation of at least two sections of tha Constitution of the State of Oregon; that it Imposes penalties that are unreasonab'e; that it will not effect .the reforms its promoters antici pate; that it imposes duties upon the saloon-keeper thai, he is not capable of performing, in that it makes him a court to decide all cases in advance; makes him n fact the custodian of the community's morals; that the passage of this ordinance was not done in entire good faith: and that if I should approve such drastic leg islation, I would be violating my solemn pledge that I made to the people of the City of La Grande prior and subsequent to my election. I said before election; "If elected, I will diligently fulfill the duties of the office to the best of my ability" and after election 1 stated: "I now feel justified in making you a pledge that I will not betray that sacred trust." As stated in my message to the Coun cil, I am not opposed to increase of license but 1 am opposed to creating a monopoly. I stated I wouid favor in crease of license if it would increase the revenue, improve conditions and not dis criminate in favor of one class as against another. In the first section of this ordinance the license fee is One Thousand Dollars (1000) for one year and Six Hundred Dollars ($600) for six months. Tne in terest on the Four Hundred Dollars paid for the second six mor.ths by the man who pays the one thousand dollars in advance, will amount to Sixteen dollars, giving the man who has the most ready money the advantage of the man with small means in the sum of One Hundred Eighty-four dollars for a yearly license. "A square deal" is a good thing, in my opinion, even in dealing with saloon-keepers. Instead of this measure increasing the revenue for the City it will have a tend ency to increase it for the reason that the fees being so high and the strictures pains and penalties being so severe, possi bly not over three or four saloon men could continue in business. As far as improving the morals is con cerned anybody should know that the gi.ded palace conduces more to the doing of our best men and boys than un the iow, cheap groggery. The laws we have now cover all the ground necessary for the .suppression of lawlessness and crime. There is no question about this proposed legislation creating a monopoly, even its most ardent supporters admit that and if for no other reason than this. 1 would exercise the power vested in me to voto it. Should this bill pass, it will not only make vacant many business buildings, but the residence section will become slightly depopulated by the people moving away for want of employment Than the con tractors and house bui ders will be out uf a job because people do not want to build houses where tenants are scarce. The thing grows on itself as the house-build ers will be out of work, which will mean more vacant houses. Many towns have been killed before and like causes will produce like results. Everything in Nature tends to equalize itself and things will adjust themselves to new conditions, but it dot' not appear j wise to me at this lime to engage in any experiments.
