City of Seattle Records

to the Honorable Mayor and City Council of the City of Seattle, State of Washington The undersigned citizens and keepers of fish markets in the City of Seattle would repectfully represent, that we are at great expense in paying rent for our several markets, and keeping a variety of fish suitable for the accommodation of the citizens of our young and growing City, Under our present law anyone who can buy or borrow a basket and catch a few fish can peddle the same in the city without paying any rent for market, or tax or license of any kind. That this is done by parties generally, who are not citizens of Seattle, to the great damage of us who pay rent for our places of business. We therefore pray your Honorable body that a License of at leasst ten dollars per month be charged to all peddlars of fish: and petitioners will ever pray.
