City Attorney Oonnell and other lawyera
aay tho provision la legal, and the knowl

Saturday. Inaarouch aa the city la going to
be abort of funda thla year and nay even

what may happen. City Attorney Council,
In expounding tba new doctrine, aaya:
"The former law limited tha power of tho
mayor and the councilmen to license aud
regulate theaa varloua kinda of bualneea.
Voder tha power to merely licenie and reg
ulate tha courta held that a license tux
cannot, exceed the reaaonabla coat or ex
pense of regulation. The power to license
and regulate la now extended to the levying
of a tax for tha purpose of revenue, wMch
may be such reasonable amount aa tho
mayor and tha council may determine, with
out reference to the coat of regulation. In
other words, they have tha right to tax all
kinda of business for revenue."
