If the ordinances of the City of Lewiston are changed as the proposition introduced at the meeting of the Board of Mayor and Aldermen, fruit peddlers in particular and perhaps all others who sell goods from house to house will have to pay for a license to ply their trade. The proposition presented last evening was signed by nearly all the grocers of the city. An amendment was offered to include all classes of peddlers and both matters will be considered at the meeting of both branches of the government.
