THE HACK ORDINANCE.-Yes terday the
committee appointed by the State Board Of
Agriculture waited upon the City Trustees
and asked for the repeal of the hack ordi-
nance. The committee argued that the
more hacks and wagons engaged during
Fair week the cheaper would be prices
Also, that it was discriminating in favor of
Sacramento, and saying that Sacramento
hackmen were more honest than those
from abroad. Their argument was similar
to that embodied in the resolutions of the
Agricultural Society published yesterday
morning. Sacramento, they claimed, had
a hogging" name abroad, and such ordi-
nances would Justify the accusation and
initiate against the city. After hearing
long and very verbose arguments on both
sides, the Board took the matter under adj
visement until Monday. 1t was under
stood last evening that the Board in caucus
had agreed that, inasmuch as the Fair was
4 State institution, they would repeal the
ordinance and pass such rules and regula-
tons as would insure square dealing on
the part of hackmen.
