g " THE CHICAGO DAILY TRIBUNE : SATURDAY, 14, 1R%3, JUNE: THE TEMPERANCE QUESTION. Argument from tho “Temperance Burean” on the Power to Revoke Liconses, A Warning to Irish Temporanco Socie- ties Against Wide-Awake Pol- iticians. Responso to the Speechos Mado at tho Irish Temperance Meeting of the 8th Insts Vie\;vs of Puritans and Anti-Puri- tans. The Power to Revoko Liconses, 7o the Editor of The Chicago T'ribune : 8in: . Wo notleo that tho liquor-intorost has obtained an opinion from gomo of its attorneys, denying tho power of tho Common Council to authorize tho Mayor to rovoke liconsos in cases whero liquor-gollors have violated the laws, and proposo to Influonco the action of the Common Council at ita noxt mocting by this opinion. It Illuatratos tho perslstency and inch-by-inch op- position Which lquor-dealers slways oxhibit to nny rosgonablo rogulation of thelr dangerous traffic. _ E The nrgument a8 published drawa mqo_ con- clusions from its own ‘promiscs, sud fails to touch tho foundation of tho questions involved. Tho promisos aro mostly disjointed, partiol state- monts of simple logal propositions which all noknowlodge, and do not affeot tho power clajmod. Will you plenso publish, for tho infor- mation of tho Council at its noxi meoting, tho following * powors of the Council,” aud Jogal suthoritica defining tho nature of a liconse, and tho source from which the powor of revocation of & liconso is derivod. By tho Consolidated CHiartor of 1803, Bec. 5, tho Common Council haa power: “To regulate the selling or giving away of any ardont spirits by any shopkooper, trador, or grocer, to bo drunk in any shop, store, or grocery, outliouso, yard, garden, or other placo within the city.” Soc. 7: "o licenso, rogulate, end restrain tuvorn-keepers, grocors, and keopors of ordina- rios, or victusling, or othor houses or places for tho selling or giving sway wines and othor liquors, whothor nrdent, vinous, or fermonted.” jocs. 18, 15, 33, and 64 confor various powers to liconso, BUPPRESS, or restrain, ond abate nuigances’ by summary procoss; and also o mako any ordinances nccessary for police-roqu- lations, and the good_order of tha cily, oud to make any ordinouco that moy bo necessary to carry into offect any ordinanco mado in pursu- aueo of thio City Ohartor ot its smondmonts, and to inflict penaliios, ine nud imprisonment,—not oxceeading 500 or imprisonment for two yoara. Also, by tho gonoral incorporation act of towna nd loiffes : ** All cities organized under any special aot havo the same powors that woro con- ferred upon tho Citics of Pm)gfleld and Quinoy. Ly tho chartors of thosa citios.” Tho City Coun- cil of Spriugticld had powor : ; 410 licenne, tox, rogulate, auctionoers, mor- chanta aud retailors, grocers, taverns, ordinarics, baywkors, peddlors, ot “Po 'tax, restrnin, probibit, and suppross tippling-louses, drain-shops, gaming-housos, bnwdy ‘and other disordorly houses.” 2 10 rogulato tho police of the city, to imposo fines, and forfeitures, nnd penalties for the breach of any orilinance ; nhd provido for tho recovery and appropriation of such flnes and_forfaituros, end tha onforcomout of such poualtios.” ‘And, finally : “Tho City Council shall havo powor to make all ordinances which shall bo noc- ‘usary and propor for carrying into oxeoution the powers spocifiod in this act, 5o that such or- dinnneo bo not ropuguant to nor_inconsistont with the Constitution of the United States or of this State.” The sbovo provisions are broad enough to cover tho oxercisoe of the power of rovocation in all osnes provided for by tho ordinances, or whoro it is nocessary to carry luto effact any ordinance of tho city. 3 ‘The power to revoke liquor-liconses is a neces- sary police-power included In tho power to ro- sirain, prohibit, and suppross tippling-housos and dram-shops, and in tho power to imposo fines, forfoituros, and penaltiea for tho breach of any ordinanco; and, as euch, caunot bo alienated from the proper authoritics by suy rant or Jicouso suthorizing tho salo of liquor 1u such places. Legislatures cannot divest them- Eolvos of tho polica-powor if thoy would, (Chiot Justico Redfleld, Thorpe vs. R.'& B. R. K. Co,, 27 Vt., 149, Tho granting of a liconse is the oxcrcise of o polico-power, sud its rovocation upon good Causo, shown in & lawful mannor, is 8 ncceasary pofioo-gn\vfir; sud, a8 aboye shown, the State or Council eannot doprive itsolt of tho power of rovocation. The following authoritios are con- clusivo: A liconso granted for one year is not a con- tract, and is snnulled by a prolubitory law. Itis & mera polico-regulation, intended 1o regulate trade, provont injurioun practices, and promoto the good ordor and welfare of tho community, and Tinblo to bo modified aud ropealed whonoyar, in tho judgmont of the Legislaturo, it failed to accomplish its objests.” (Calder v, Kurby, 5 Gray, 607). 5 “Liconsos to gell hxlnur are not contracts be- tween the Btate and liconsco, giving tho latter ¥ostad rightu protooted on.geroral priuelylos,” o c. *{8uch liconses are mero temporary pormits to do what otheriiso {s unlawful, and are nof prop- orty in any logal or constitutional sonse™ S}l&tm olitan Board of Exciso vs. Bartle of al,, ' 057). "+ In both flio legal and popular senso, the term liconso implios no right or oatato conveyed or ceded, no binding contract between partios, but mero foayo and li orty to bo onjoyed ns mattor of indulgonca at the will of the party who gives the licende. It confers no vosted right, estato, or intorost, but is at all times rovocablo at the [loanuro gt tho pacly that granta it (Stato va. olines, 98 N, IL,, 227). Wo forbear quoting other authorities. Tho cago roforrad to in tho published opinion from Dillon on Corporations isin no way applica- ble. Tho Town Council of Columbia had power by ordinanco to impose fincs for tho purposo of onforcing ordinances, to the amount of 50 only, witliout power of forfeituro; and an ordinnnce which imposed a finoof 250 and forfeiture of licenso for violation was hold to be un- puthorized, as the power conferred had been ex- bausted, But tho City Council of Ohicago has power to fullict ponaltios, fuos, and forjeitures, not oxceoding = £500; consquonfly tho owor of rovoking or forfoiting a liconso cost~ ing only $50 doost not exhLauat that power, De- gitlon, the dootring by beon luid down by the Bupreme Court of thig Btate, that * citics may exercise powors by ordinance, rogulating the salo of intoxicating driuks, beyoud those author- Ized by tho gonoral Inws of tho Btato, . Groater poualtion i bo allowed.” (City of Pekin va, “:x‘;ulznl, 21 111, 464; Roberts ‘ve. Oglo, 80 1L, 59). 0 furthor argument 1s necorsary to vhow that the Common Council has power to suthorize the rovocation of liconses to sell liquors, Fux- thermore, undor tho aboye-quoted powers of tha charter, thero is good reason to boliove that thoy hnve the power to prohibit abolutely tho sulo of such liquors, whonevor tho moral souke of tho communily will domand and sus- tain nu ordinance to ‘that offcct, Aund, if any court could bo found sufliciontly subsorvient to tho liquor-interest to decide, undor tho charter- powers *to mnko oy ordinances necossnry for polie-regnlations and tho good ordor of the clty,” and * neconsary to carry into offect any ordinauco made In pursuance of the City Char- ter aud its smondmonts,” that tho Common Counoil had no powar to provido for revoking s liconse in canca where a liquor-dealer had vio- Inted the conditions of “his liconse and bond, the ordinances of tho ecity, sud tho Inws of tho Btato, thon It would ba tho duly of tho Council, under the above powors, *to ro- straln, prokibit, aud suppross tippiing-housos and dram-shops ” altogothor, and thoreby end tha public legalized oxistence of a dangorous trafilo, which causcs not nu){ intemperance, pau- porlam, and orimo, but oponly dofics nud viofates Inwa ‘most necousury to the poace and order of socloty, a8 woll au the porpotuity of Republican inatitutions, ‘What othor business nccuxznl}au would dare to violato the laws with impunity ¢ TLiquor-selling alono insplres its employos with tho spirit of lawlessnoss asud dinrogard of othor's rights, It only browboats our Common Councils and Leglulatures, attompts to Ynmlyza tlie Exccutive arm, and defirfldo Lo Judiciory. 7T'o disouss tho power which the Mayor bas, ™ indepondont of the Comnior Counoil, to rovolka liconyos,- wonld ‘mnks this.communication too longtlty, .
