Clause lor $800 License
Inoperative-Inserted to
Fool Voters and Secure
Passage ol Measure
Tho charter amendment proposed by
prohibitionists to amend Medford 'a city
charter, so as to mako it comply wil'a
the general local option law, contains
a joker cunningly im-ertod to secure
votes for it from those who favor
high license. Vnder tl.o impressiou that
they arc voting to increase the mini
iiiuiii license to ifKOO jar annum, many
are supposed to vote for the amend
ment. As a matter of fad, if tho amend
meut to the charter carries, the high li
cense provision .will b.) operative, be
cause the high license provision will
be taken away from Jdedford.
Upon the official ballot the initia
tive petition proposed by tho prohibi
tionists reads as follows:
" Proposal by. initiative petition.
Charter amondineiit making the local
option law of the stale of Oregon apply
to tho city of Medford ami fixing the
minimum license nt. $$00 per annum.
Voto yes or no. ' '
The clause in Medford 't charter which
now gives the city ciuucil power to
license, tax regulate or prohibit bar
rooms, etc., where spi'itous, malt or
vinous liquors are k"pf, for mile, " ro
gardless of general or state laws," and
which is local self government. mid
hence the true local option, is changed
under the proposed amendment tu rend
as follows: '
' ' To license, tax, r 'gulale, or pro
hibit barrooms, drinking shops, billiard
rooms, bowling alleys, d.iuec houses, and
all places where spirieus, malt or via
oiis liquors are sold or !: pi fur sale, sub
jeel to any and all grroial laws of the
state of Oregon heretofore enacted or
which hereafter shall h enacted by the
legislature or by the people of the slate
of Iregoii j provided, I hut no license
for the sale of spiritous. malt or vinous
liquors shall be granted for any less
amount thnu eight, hundred dollars
($N00) per annum, pa able seiui iiunu
ill! vy in advance, ' '
Jt therefore follow- that the clause
containing tho ifSOO Incuse will be in
operative when tli .j charter complies
with the general loci" I option law, and
that it was ostcnsih'v inserted to de
ceive voters and secu.-n support for the
amendment, taking away the power of
licensing from the city. As the public
voted for tho local opii-in law supporiug
it to be a true local eplion bill instead
of it t-ouiitv prohibition measure, so it i
hoped to secure ntes for tin- amend
ment emasculating i ho city charter.
