Alderman Stole -who had present
ed tho resolution replied that that
was not always tho case with tt.e
street committee.
"Dad" Geler, who 'has been main
taining a wagon, containing po
corn, candy and other sweets, on
Commercial street, north of State,
will probably leave with his movable
storo for other climes as tho result
of an ordinance, which tho council
passed requiring him to pay $100
yearly license. This, the old man
claims, is too much, in fact, he says
he Is not rasping money now with
tho 175 yearly llconso. In addition
to tho license, the new ordinance
roqulrei hat any street vender must
obtain tho permission of the prop
erty owner, in front of who3e store
he locates, and that bis wagon or
other conveyanoo bo
$1000.
An ordinance was introduced reg
ulating sign? overhanging sidewalks
and charging a fee of $5 annually
for tbelr maintenance. Tho signs are
not to be allowed to extend over the
sidewalk more than six feet andjire
to be securely fastened and not al
lowed to sway.
BUI poators will hereafter pay a
license ot $100 annually according
to a bill introduced at the meeting
last night, Thla ordlaaueo provides
that bo person shall post signs or
advertising matter of any description
without first paying this fee, and
