Extract from Ordinance concerning Licenses, Dealers in Junk and Second-hand Articles.
SEC. 8. The License Committee may license suitable per- sons to be dealers in and keepers of shops for the purchase, sale or barter of junk, old metals or second-hand articles, at such places within the city as may be designated in such licen- ses, under such conditions and restrictions as are hereinafter pre- scribed, which shall be incorporated in every such license. The licensee shall pay for the license two dollars. Every keeper of a sliop licensed as aforesaid shall keep a book in which shall be written at the time of every purchase, a description of the junk, old metal or second-hand articles so purchased, the name, age and residence of the person from whom, and the day and hour when such purchase was made. Such book shall at all times be open for inspection of the Chief of Police, and of any mem- ber of the City Council. Every keeper of such shop shall put in some suitable and conspicuous place on his shop a sign having his name and occupation legibly inscribed thereon in large letters. Such shops and all articles of merchandise therein, may at all times be examined by the Chief of Police or any member of the City Council. No keeper of such shop shall directly or indirectly either purchase or receive by way of bar- ter or exchange any of the articles aforesaid of a minor or ap- prentice, knowing or having reason to believe him to be such and no article purchased or received shall be sold until a period of at least one week from the date of its purchase or receipt has elapsed, unless the name and address of the person to whom such article has been sold, with other facts as may be necessary to facilitate the tracing of such article, having been entered on the book mentioned in this section. No wagon shall be used for the collection of junk, metal, rags or second- hand articles, unless licensed by the City Council. Every such wagon shall bear conspicuously the owner's name and the number of the license on the outside and on each side. It shall be the duty of the City Clerk to keep a record of the name and residence of every peddler licensed by the city, together with the number of the vehicle used in his business, and of the par- ticular business for which his license is granted; a list of deal- ers in articles mentioned in this Ordinance, and of the places wherein the business is to be carried on; and also a list of all persons employed by any such peddler or dealer in the peddling or collecting of any such articles. Whoever, not being so licensed, keeps such shop, or any licensed dealer who keeps such shop in any place or manner other than that designated in his license, or after notice to him that his license has been revoked, and whoever violates any rule, regulation or restric- tion contained in his license shall forfeit a sum not exceeding twenty dollars for each offense.
