The STATE FAIR G0ISG TO ST. ALBANS 49,
The locating committee of the State Agri-
cultural Society consisted of James A.
Shedd, of this city, who was in favor of
Burlington. for the State Fair; 5. g. Holy
Oke. OF s.. Adams, who was in favor Of ST.
Adams, and Col Geo. A. Merrill, Of Rut-
land, who had the casting vote in the mat
ter. Col. Merrill has decided in favor Of ST.
Adams, which We understand to settle the
case. In letter to Mr. Shedd. Thursday,
Mr.. Merrill says that bis vote Is against his
own personal feelings. The objections TO
Burlington, as he states them, are that the
grounds selected are too small; that it will
be almost impossible to get IA frst-rate track;
that $4,000 or $1,000 will not put them
in shape, and that, being entirely new. he
believes they would inevitably disappolnt
the officers We do not doubt that Mr..
Merrill is honest in these conclusions
Whether they are wise IL another ques-
ton We relieve that Burlington could
be trusted to give the State Society
trst-cla,s grounds and track, if she under
took 50 to do. The society has made three
dollars from its fairs held in Burlington,
for every one it has made elsewhere 1t used,
in fact. to be a proyerb, that the Society
came to Burlington to make money and
went elsewhere to spend it. Burlington
made fair offer in this case. and would
have carried it out handsomely and if the
State Society can stand the decision, this
CITY can.
